I might be wrong, but I remember reading about it, non-expanded the new stadium has an even smaller capacity than Candlestick Park. I just wonder why aren't we building the biggest stadium in the NFL when we have a chance to ??
Also, why open air ? Just to keep its tradition ? I would have thought a cover stadium would be far louder for the visiting team and will give us the chance to get used to it when we have to play in really loud stadiums such as the Century Link.

Why build a bigger stadium? So we can end up like the Cowgirls and have a blackout in our hometown every game because there are 20,000 empty seats? 70k is plenty and bigger isn't always better. Just like with the Giants, AT&T park isn't the biggest park but it is easily one of the nicest and best to see a game at and as a result we sell out almost every game. Quality over quantity.

Hey, you don't have to tell me that. I couldn't stand an ugly eye sore of a dome anyway.

I haven't noticed the Cowboys stadium having 20,000 empty seats. I happen to like their stadium, they have that bar overlooking the field with podiums for the dancers to perform. Besides, our season tickets are always sold out.

But, San Fran can get cold and wet. Plus, by the way, the NFL doesn't like to host the Super Bowl in cold markets.

No, before the game or at half time you can. Is about the overall experience. Otherwise, you might as well just watch the game on TV.
