Take for instance this lovely tweet from @nfluxx:
License fell out of wallet getting on muni. man found it, returned it within 5 min and before I got off.
Read this and other posts in our 100 Days, 100 Muni Stories feature.
Hey, Muni, you got something, uh, hanging off … right there. No, to the left. No, a little more to the right. There it is.
Camera-ready Christopher sent us this dispatch of a one-car (minus one door) N-Judah:
…some photos of the door that went flying off mid-route that caused yesterdays inbound delay. After they kicked everyone off at Van Ness station, the train then slowly creeped back through the station with the door having been pulled off and sitting in the middle of the carriage. I wish I had gotten a photo of that!
Don’t sell yourself short, Christopher. This is very Hulk Smash to me.
How on earth does this happen?

Honestly, I had to go back and count how many of these have been reported to us and SFist so far.
This one, sent to SFist by David, is only barely funny and more “asshole” (ironically) than “12-year-old-boy.” What do you think?

As @KelseyAvers says, “Too cute. The kid in the middle kept trying to push his brother and sister off of him.”
Muni turns 100 this year, and we want to celebrate it with your Muni stories in our “100 Days, 100 Muni Stories” project! You might remember the cool prize for this story drive: Submit a Muni story in the next 100 days and a portion of your story can end up on a bus ad.
For 100 days this summer, you can go our 100 Muni Stories page to see new stories in the running for getting their own advertisement inside the bus. We’ve combed through your submissions and tweets, plus some that we think deserve some props. At the end of the 100 days, we’ll be choosing quotes from the best of the best to appear on ads inside all Muni buses.
Today’s “100 Muni Stories” submission comes from David Gray, who remembers the 55-Sacramento and how its passengers had to help the bus get up steep San Francisco hills.
We’re still taking submissions for the centennial birthday celebration, so send your stories our way and remember to tag it #100MuniStories.
