San Francisco plague of 1900–1904: The San Francisco plague of 1900–1904 was an epidemic of bubonic plague centered on San Francisco's Chinatown.  It was the first plague epidemic in the continental United States.  The epidemic was recognized by medical authorities in March 1900, but its existence was denied for more than two years by Henry Gage, the Governor of California.  His denial was based on business reasons: the wish to keep the reputations of San Francisco and California clean and to prevent the loss of revenue from trade stopped by quarantine.  The failure to act quickly may have allowed the disease to establish itself among local animal populations.  Federal authorities worked to build a case to prove that there was a major medical health problem, and they isolated the affected area.  Proof that an epidemic was occurring served to undermine the credibility of Gage, and he lost the governorship in the 1902 elections.  The new governor, George Pardee, quietly implemented a medical solution and the epidemic was stopped in 1904.  There were 121 cases identified, including 113 deaths.

Exotic Erotic Ball: The Exotic Erotic Ball (often referred to as The Ball or Perry Mann's Exotic Erotic Ball) was held annually around Halloween time (usually the weekend before Halloween Night) in the San Francisco Bay area of California and was the longest-running public adult-themed event in the world.  Over three decades, the annual indoor event became a major attraction in the San Francisco Bay and was attended by nearly half a million people since its inception with steadily increasing growth in attendance each year until 2010, when the event was cancelled due to poor ticket sales and cost overruns.  The 2011 ball was never planned.  Due to the worldwide popularity of the event the City of San Francisco issued three proclamations for “Exotic Erotic Ball Day”, twice by Mayor Willie Brown in 1999 and again in 2001, and once by Mayor Gavin Newsom in 2004.
