Took me 15 minutes to get out of Blu1 and 45 minutes to get from my parking spot to Fremont. Not bad IMO.

Traffic is much better than Candlestick. 45min from my seat at Levi's Stadium to home in mid peninsula. This took at least twice as long from Candlestick.

I waited for over an hour leaving a game at candlestick last season so any wait time that's under an hour is an improvement.

That time won't change that was when I left in the 3rd qrt. I think overall traffic will be better in the long run. But I do feel like the 49ers sold me a bill of goods when they said parking would be better than candlestick. I also park in blue lot 1, it really sucks compared to candlestick considering the dust from the dirt lot sections and the distance from the stadium. I think everyone parking there needs to complain so they pave that lot. It will be better for everyone in the long run especially if it rains.

We got out of Green Lot 1 and onto Grt Amer Pkwy within 5 minutes of getting in the car, onto 237 within 10 minutes, 880 within 15, took a shortcut to bypass bottleneck at 880/262 offramp, on 680 within ~30 minutes, usual 680/Sunol Grade traffic but in Walnut Creek area in just about 1 hour... definitely faster trip than what we always had at Candlestick.

This.... I realize it was just a preseason game but it didn't sound very loud,the little that I got to watch anyway.
Yeah, preseason and just a dead, disappointing "performance" by the Niners, but that place was a mausoleum. One thing I noticed in our section and sections around us was that probably 1 of every 4 people had their face in their phone or tablet while the game was going on... plus a LOT of people were up in the club areas, i.e. not in their seats. That doesn't lend itself to crowd noise. We'll see, might be different in reg season.

Most were there to checkout the stadium and people in our section were gone by half time. Getting stuffed by the Broncos didn't help. I'm sure it'll be louder

I wouldn't worry too much about the crowd noise. I was there with a few friends and by third-fourth quarter, many people in my section had already left and even I was walking around the concourses and checking out the new digs. If you guys thought the game was ugly watching at home, it was damn near unwatchable up close and live. Awesome place btw, lots of food spots and variety. And the team store is huuuuggeeeee!

Well, even at the start of the game when most everyone was at their seats, all excited about the team and new stadium, even then I was surprised by how quiet it seemed. But like I said, true litmus test will be the regular season.

The soccer match seemed louder, but then again play is continuous in that sport (no "quiet on offense, loud on defense") and the supporters group keeps up constant chants/songs to alleviate monotony
the niners crowd today seemed tentative at first (did well to hush up on offense tho) or were perhaps in awe/distracted by the new stadium...did get loud a few times on D, but not as much as could be...by the time the broncs scored 10 the crowd pretty much DGAF and gabbert + scrubs stinkin up didn't help
