Cable car dedicated to Giants legend Willie Mays

Willie Mays turned 85-years-old today and received a special present in San Francisco. City leaders dedicated a cable car to the legendary Giants outfielder. Car number 24 -- the same number Mays wore in his 24 All Star seasons.

The tribute included a surprise video recording:

"I've gotten to spend some time with Willie in the White House and Air Force One. Two places I'd never be if people if people like Willie hadn't pushed us closer to a more inclusive America. His legacy is that giant," said President Barack Obama.

"Nobody told me the president was going to call. I'm surprised that he didn't call my house to tell me he was going do all this stuff, you know it's just a wonderful, wonderful feeling," said Mays.

The cable car was originally built in 1887. It operates on the Powell-Mason and Powell-Hyde Street lines.
