From the “Life Is Full of Rich Irony” File…

A sandwich board outside the entrance to the California Musuem at 10^th and O Streets in Sacramento touts one of its current exhibits:

“Riding Concrete – Skateboarding in California.”

The exhibit is curated by Nathan Pratt, Z-Boy and co-star of “Dogtown & Z-Boys,” a 2001 documentary about the 1970s Zephyr Competition skateboarding Team, known as the Z-boys.

Twenty-five paces to the right of the sandwich board, near a Sacramento Light Rail stop on O Street, is a  sign that reads:

“No Skateboarding, Roller Blading, Bicycle Riding. Violators Will be Prosecuted.”
