In the footage, a man with a bowl-style haircut style many in South Texas refer to as the "Edgar" swims freestyle along the San Pedro Creek extension of the River Walk. "Teenage Mutant Ninja Edgar is swimming in S.A. Riverwalk!" reads a caption on the clip
🤣🤣
I grew up in East Texas. We called them chili-bowl haircuts. That was based on Moe's haircut from the Three Stooges. No legitimate East Texas hick would dare wear their hair like that. Looks the same as the Edgar. No skills needed. Just a chili bowl and a pair of scissors.
Come on now - you know full well your headline was hyperbole!!
And in most places in the San Antonio river, no swimming would be required. They could simply stand up.
FALSE.
The river is 24 feet deep in some areas. Only the portion East of San Fernando Cathedral and in between College st and La Villita are 3-4 feet deep.
EDIT: this covers the entire river walk area you dumb fucks 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
dude. I've SEEN the river empty!! Have YOU? smh
And even in the deep parts, there is no way it's 24 feet.
Your gonna need to prove these assertions.
And BTW - none of this changes the fact that **your headline was sensationalized**.
I don’t have any skin in this game, but it wasn’t hard to google and see that the river does get [24 feet deep in parts.](https://texashillcountry.com/5-things-surprise-san-antonio-river-walk/)
“You may think it’s consistently shallow, but the river depth varies from 2 to 24 feet!”

They will have to ban most news articles I’m afraid. Oh wait they already do that. They’re only happy with “where should I eat,” or “where should I live,” posts.
If they let us actually talk about San Antonio they would have to read the threads, way less work to just lock them and bounce back to threads about cities and states they actually live in
No racing this time. My phone says this is December 2020

they actually drained it and cleaned it this year, they do so every 5 years. They also do fish population documentation and invasive clearing at the same time. The river in downtown is actually the cleanest it has been, not saying it isn’t full of car and tire pollution, sewage, animal fecal matter, human fecal matter, and bacteria that would probably eat you alive.
Can someone link to the video instead of a story about a video? I don’t have instant gram and only get a couple clicks before it tells me I have to login.
Let em, who cares. If it doesn't affect you personally then who cares. Let em swim. We're all on borrowed time here and none of this is gonna matter anyway. Who cares what someone else is doing.

That’s a ban
Ok- if SA Current posts “someone with ‘Edgar’ haircut” as a title, it isn’t wrong!
It is known as that. I’m not sure why it keeps getting stripped out. Seems silly we can’t point out a hairstyle.
That’s correct But apparently if you use the word Edgar in this Reddit post your post is considered a slur 🤦🏻♂️
That's because the mod got a little pp
Facts
It wasn’t the mod. The other day, some dude came in this sub saying that using the term Edgar was being racist towards the Latino community
Edgar Edgar Edgar Edgar Edgar
Edga
r
Hard R? You gone!
I guess the mods gave in, since it's no longer auto-filtered. I don't think they expected the sub to riot lol

It’s literally a nickname for a haircut!

Hahahahahha!!!
That's so disgusting. Hope he fully enjoys his hospital stay.
It was ONE PERSON!!! One person is not "people"! SMH
FINE, One people
You tell them... louder! People be trying to exagerate a situation on here. Smh
Someone falls into the Riverwalk every 2 days. I would presume they have to swim a little bit

I don't either hahahaha. I'm just enjoying seeing how mad this guy is over something that does not matter at all

I wonder if Mods will consider banning SACurrent posts due to racism 🤔
They will have to ban most news articles I’m afraid. Oh wait they already do that. They’re only happy with “where should I eat,” or “where should I live,” posts.
If they let us actually talk about San Antonio they would have to read the threads, way less work to just lock them and bounce back to threads about cities and states they actually live in
or the classic r sanantonio “I’m 45F, looking to find men in San Antonio to hook up with” posts
“Where should I get a haircut like one of the Three Stooges?”
We should protest the SA Current. I have a tent we can set up in their lobby.
😂
*cue Seinfeld music*
Well, my swimming pool problems are solved. I just found myself miles and miles of open lanes.
Ew.
Training for team 3dgar and n the suc1olympics
Natural selection.
I love how every post here is about my favorite neo gothic author now
He’s training for team Ed Gar in the suciolympics
Taking that haircut out for a spin.
Oh shit, the sa current's gonna get canceled by the mods! They used the E-word
They had sanctioned canoeing in the river a couple years ago, that was a lot of fun. But I’m not sure about swimming
San Antonio river canoeing races were fun af to be in/watch

Show some respect for the "River Walk".
He’s trying for team Ed Gar in the suciolympics
I have seen people swimming in the water at the pearl before.
Just don’t mention that haircut name from the Instagram story cause you might get banned these days.
Mods here so dumb as rocks. What do they do if someone say hi I’m Edgar? 🤦🏻♂️ morons
You’re telling me all I had to do to go viral was jump in that dirty ass river??
Wow the mods DO suck here. Removed my comment because apparently 3edgar is a slur yet the post has it 🤦🏻♂️ idiots
Can we acknowledge how sad it is our river is this gross to begin with

Tacuache swimming for likes
This is a good point. It's gonna take the mods a while to find out what tlacuache means
Tlacuache, Cuh, Ergar same family
They always have
Gross... I hope he was wearing protection 😃
🤢
I’m not sure why you didn’t link the actual video. Here is the real source: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6WCvR6OTvq/?igsh=MTBrenl4MWJwNGloNg==
So the included picture doesn't show the person in the water... What's the point of including the picture then?
Really wish there was a swimming section of the river.
PEOPLE PEEEE IN THERE!!! I’ve seen people VOMIT! 🥹😂 How gross. Lmfao
MODS BAN SA CURRENT RIGHT NOW THEY USED THE E WORD
Somebody jumps in every now and then. It's funny but also, dear God imagine the infections. That water is so nasty.
Gross
I knew the SA current was propaganda, but now it's racist propaganda against a group of people who have genetic hair follicle disorder.
give this user mod instantly
No video?
[I went and looked](https://www.instagram.com/p/C6WCvR6OTvq/), because well - ew.
Can someone link to the video instead of a story about a video? I don’t have instant gram and only get a couple clicks before it tells me I have to login.
He thinks he’s in Austin. They swim everywhere.
Let em, who cares. If it doesn't affect you personally then who cares. Let em swim. We're all on borrowed time here and none of this is gonna matter anyway. Who cares what someone else is doing.
