Update: Though Professor Akit got this one right on Twitter inside of 30 seconds, we're giving it to Bret Lobree. Akit is a ringer.
Details on Akit's Complaint Department - totally agree with his assessment that MTC botched this one.
For all you transit nerds out there - here is a fun @BayAreaClipper quiz!
Yesterday I walked down the street. Got onto the 48 Bus at 24th/Diamond. I was going to go to Bryant and get on a 27, but NextBus was telling me 54 MINUTES! So I got off at Mission, and was going to take the 14 down to 16th to get a 22/33, but my kid said "I WANNA RIDE THE CHOO CHOO". So we got onto BART at 24th/Mission, took it to 16th Street BART, went upstairs, and got on a 22 to our final destination.
Summary
MUNI ride on the 48
BART ride from 24th to 16th/Mission
MUNI ride on the 22
All within 30 minutes. I used my single clipper card to pay for this trip.
Question - How much did I pay?
First correct answer wins a Growler of Beer from Firehouse/Tied House.

$3.75?
Interestingly enough, the cost was exactly the same as the cost of a Growler of Beer from Firehouse/Tied House.
2 bucks
0, all the machines were broken.
I'm guessing the 22 didn't know that you had already taken the 48 then add the bart fare: 5.75
$5.35. remember, have to pay for the kid, too!

So far you're all wrong which is pretty sad. Not on your part, on Clipper's part.
Brutal.
And here's a hint. I returned the same exact way, and paid the exact same fare to get home. And the total round trip was...

Frank wins two growlers but must come to SF to collect.
I'll be there in three weeks!
Did you get my second guess via Twitter DM? I got it right on my second guess...I had forgotten the .25 discount, but at least I got the missed transfer from muni part...
Hey, blobree, quit trying to horn into my growlers?
What's a growler, anyhows? The fact that I have to go to SF to get one worries me a bit.
I'll share...
Since you're asking nicely, ok.
Is it $5.50?
Can I use my clippard card and ask for a transfer? My trips are short on muni, dies it mean that everytime I board muni and use the clippard card it is deducting $2 per ride? It would be better to pay cash and get a transfer right? I would be saving money in the long run, right?
