Old Muni Tokens Wanted for SF Wedding

Back in late 2010, we posted about Muni tokens at Muni Time Capsule. Last month, Samantha commented asking if anyone knows where to get them. She has a friend who wants them for their wedding.
So help a sister out: Does anyone know where to get old Muni tokens in large quantities? If so, comment away!

Muni Bus Driver: (After 10 minutes of yelling at passengers on her overcrowded bus, and becoming visibly irate) Wanna trade jobs?
Muni Passenger: Yes! In a heartbeat! I’ve been on unemployment for months.
Well, there ya go!
Sleeping In Japanese Transit, Pt. 2
If this photo of a woman sound asleep on the train in Japan weren’t ridiculous enough, commenter Kristin pointed us to the baffling scene above. (Um, sir, shouldn’t you be using your superpowers to help that man find his pants?)
Kristin herself spent “many a NYE asleep on the Yamanote line, going around and around and around,” and wrote that when it comes to transit weirdness, nothing quite tops Japan. Naked men and Power Rangers … she just might have us convinced.

John Waters: ‘You Meet All the Interesting People’ on Muni

He says:
I ran into Mr. Waters on the 49 last week — he was very polite and seemed kind of tickled that he got recognized by someone who was polite enough not to hassle him. I actually expressed surprise that I ran into him on the bus and his response was (roughly — I’m afraid I didn’t take notes) ‘I LOVE the bus! You meet all the interesting people on the bus.‘ I’d love to see him as the spokesman of Muni — or as the voice of Muni.
There’s some more incentive in case you need it, Mr. Waters. We’re behind you 100-percent.
