Yeah I cannot figure out why the stadium is empty
Some good points but....
4) they've done a much better job, and leaving is not a hassle anymore. it's actually smooth. that's if you know wtf you're doing. yeah the tailgate experience isn't what it use to be, but it's not that bad. what's so wrong with the tailgating? my boys & i have had a legit set up in the blue lot 3 years running.
6) lol being in California that is the norm in what to expect for beer prices. it was ridiculous at the stick, it's silly at AT&T, and at a Dubs game. lol welcome to Cali. but come on....that's why you drink enough before you go in, then it's not that bad, but beer prices in CA at sports stadiums have always been rape $$$
8) lol not sure where Dilfer, Hill, O'Sullivan play a part into Levi's stadium? they have no bearing as they where well before Harbaugh came and built us back up.
10) most solid niner fans are well beyond the harbaugh era. I think those who are level headed know good & well it takes two too tango. I love it, but so many fans are disconnected with this. Dude had issues himself. just was not a good fit. yeah our ownership is a mess, but come on. let's not kid ourselves...it was bound to blow up. especially when coach refuses to cut ties with his bantha fodder of an OC. Enough there.
13)...lol really? we have enough soccer fields in the bay area to satisfy youth sports. please.
14) come on. lol what QB were we going to get the last 3 years in the first rd???
some solid points though. overall we have a new group of fans that go to the games. yes the good ol boys have been pushed out. Also too I don't by into the whole heat issue. that's just a bunch of whiny Californians. nothing new. it's only a few times a year. Come out to the middle east and try a balmy 120 day while in full gear. nah for real we as a society love to complain & b***h about everything nowadays. yea it's hot, but also those clubs are pretty fkn awesome.
How many here have actually been in those clubs? dude if you have then you know exactly where i am going with this. sure it's hot, but given the new atmosphere and who they are catering too, yeah you're going to spend a qrtr easily in the club watching football, and enjoying the digs.
yeah it wasn't the best designed stadium, but lol i have been to many new ones that were the s**ts. Dallas is cool, but it's too much. it makes it almost feel that you are not at a football game.
