San Francisco 49ers -- a fans' page
The
spirit of the fan-ship of the San Francisco 49ers is rich with history
and pride! "Faithful City" is
a great experience for both young and old!
It's the ultimate tailgate party located in the main parking lot near Gate 4 and opens three
hours before kickoff and closes shortly after the game begins.
Modeled after the NFL experience, "Faithful
City" features interactive games that test passing, kicking and
running skills. Fans will be able to take part in live broadcasts from
KNBR & 107.7 The Bone, receive autographs from San Francisco 49ers
alumni and Gold Rush cheerleaders, all before kick off.
So are you ready for a game??? If you are as pumped as I am for this
season then look below for the schedule and how to buy tickets.
This season is going to be better than ever. Here is the new 2009
schedule, so grab your red & gold and get ready for your San
Francisco 49ers!!
Friendly Tip!!
Buy your tickets from a
reputable retailer!
Watch out for "SCALPERS" - people selling tickets out on
the street when games are sold out or close to being sold out for a
much higher price than ticket value.
BE CAREFUL!!! More often than not the tickets are FAKE.
You wont be allowed in and they will be confiscated at the ticket
gates.
San Francisco 49er History...
 Though the San Francisco 49ers team started in the late
1940's it wasn't until the 1970's that they won a championship game,
and we owe that turn around to the great and beloved, Bill Walsh.
Walsh led the 49ers to currently share the record for most Super Bowl
victories (five) with the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Dallas Cowboys.
Under Walsh, the 49ers teams of the 1980s and early 1990s are
considered to be among the greatest teams in NFL history. He built a
team of NFL greats with players such as Jerry Rice, O.J Simpson, Ronnie
Lot, Bob St. Clair, Steve Young and of course, Joe Montana.
His heart and utter love for the game has burned a place in every fans
memory as one of the greatest coaches of all time.
My
Story
I love my San Francisco 49ers! I have been watching them since I was
about 5 or 6 years old & I have openly said that Joe Montana is one
of my personal heroes!
When I was 7 when the 49ers won Super Bowl XXIII, when Joe Montana
gained 92 yards for a victory pass in the last 34 seconds of the game.
Then the next year with Super Bowl XXIV, where amongst many records was
the so beautiful Hail Mary pass by Joe Montana.
Then in 1990 the San Francisco 49ers were going for a "three-peat" and
almost had the chance, but during the Conference Championships the New
York Giants took advantage of a 4th quarter injury to Montana; kicking
a field goal in the final minutes of the game, winning the 15-13 and
going on to win Super Bowl XXV.
However, during their quest for a "three-peat" between 1988 and 1990,
the San Francisco 49ers set a league record with 18 consecutive road
victories. To this date, it never has been broken and no NFL team has
ever successfully "three-peated".
Before the beginning of
the 2007 season, our beloved Bill Walsh passed away on July 30, 2007
due to Leukemia.
