Event Details

Hobnobbing with Gobs of Snobs is a comedy walking tour with comedian Kurt Weitzmann who examines the stinkin’ rich and dirty money that built Nob Hill. That’s right: San Francisco’s cleanest neighborhood is also her dirtiest.

Free, but an RSVP is required to kweitzmann@gmail.com. Meetup location will be given with your email confirmation.

Put on your white gloves and hold your nose high so you don’t catch a whiff of the corruption. Learn how The Railroad Barons and The Bonanza Kings used insider trading, price gouging, graft, money laundering, forgery, illegal monopolies, and bribery to build their empires from San Francisco’s most exclusive address, Snob Hill—I mean, Nob Hill.

This tour sneaks around some of the City’s hoity-toitiest architecture: you’ll see world-class mansions, hotels, and churches, so please wipe your feet before entering. Don’t forget your monocle.

Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
