That Takes The Cake: Gingerbread Monolith Mysteriously Appears In San Francisco [View all]
It could have been alien elves. There was no other immediate explanation for a seven-foot-tall gingerbread monolith that mysteriously popped up in a San Francisco park.
It’s not clear how edible the structure was, but witnesses reported the texture and smell of the monolith panels seemed to be the real thing — and it was decorated with frosting.
The monolith appeared early Christmas Day — on a hilltop in Corona Heights Park overlooking the Castro neighborhood. Its debut was highlighted by a rainbow.
Ananda Sharma, founder of the Gyroscope App, told local KQED public radio that he went for a run in the park early Friday and soon spotted what he initially thought was a “big post.” But as he ran closer, he could smell the gingerbread.
The structure was the latest in a series of monoliths that have appeared — and disappeared — from Utah to Romania. The San Francisco version appears to be the first made of a Christmas treat.
