Super Mario Block Party
One of the funnest ideas for Bay to Breakers is Super Mario-themed moving block party.
It’s free, but if you donate just $5 then it helps the organizer buy all the supplies, get bigger speakers and build a Speaker plant tube thingy.
Basically dress up as any character from the Super Mario universe (Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Donkey Kong) and wander through the course together. Find Super Mario costumes, accessories and ideas on Amazon.

The Story Behind Super Mario Bloco Party
– Brian Huy MacI was just in Brazil for Carnival and one of my favorite things was a BLOCO. Basically, they have a band playing where thousands of people meet up at a starting point, and then walk the streets drinking. The coolest one was this SUPER MARIO THEME one.
So for BAY TO BREAKERS, my goal is to get as many people dressed up as SUPER MARIO BROTHERS characters as possible (Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, Donkey Kong, etc.) to party together as we wander through the course.
Meet up Hayes Valley Park, and go together from there to GG Park. Gonna build a giant flower in a tube thing but will actually be battery powered DJ Speakers playing Super Mario Tunes + Hits, cardboard cut outs of characters and coins, so we can party along the route.
1UP! + Invite your friends!
