We Refuse to Rhyme with “Crisco”

Whoever after due and proper warning shall be heard to utter the abominable word “Frisco,” which has no linguistic or other warrant, shall be deemed guilty of a High Misdemeanor, and shall pay into the Imperial Treasury as penalty the sum of twenty-five dollars.

- Norton I, Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico, 1872

I’ve yet to find a city that feels as good as you, dear Frisco San Fran SAN FRANCISCO.
But I think I’ll add it to my bucket list.
