"Let's get weird! Let's get weird! Let's get weird!" Adam DeMamp chants joyfully on the Comedy Central show Workoholics. But with all the fabulous self-expression at festivals around the country, to actually "get weird" has become somewhat of a challenge. If there was ever a place to be incredibly strange it's San Francisco – and if there was ever a precise day to do it, it's the How Weird Street Faire. Folsom may be edgier and Decompression may be more fabulous, but How Weird still reigns supreme as the king of bizarre in San Francisco. 

So how weird did it get? You be the judge.
