Boeing moved their headquarters to Chicago (approx 500 people I think). They are still the largest employer in the state (80k+)

Besides Starbucks and Amazon, already mentioned, there's that little software company in Redmond, Costco, Weyerhaueser and Nordstrom, to name a few.

The stadium design is profoundly unimpressive acoustically. But that's because Jed had it built for his Silicon Valley vulture capitalist friends to be able to sip fine wine and sit on their hands in peace while a football game was being played.

If you want to fix the lack of noise, get some new fans. These fans f**king suck. The good fans you want were the ones who got priced out by Jed's greedy little taxpayer financed money grab.

We got what we got now. As a real fan, I prefer to focus on how we as fans get better. We need the front office to focus on this. For instance, other stadiums have stages outside. Before the games begin, they have rock and hip hop bands play and fire the crowd up before they go into the stadium. We need that..... They have that in Denver, Seattle, Dallas and New Orleans....

Yes, there are a lot of "noisemakers" that can't afford to get in the new building, but the bathroom incident notwithstanding, it is a SAFER experience now than it was at the 'stick. I wouldn't take my 8 or 4 year old kids to game before. Now I'm more likely to.

One thing that is true here...there are ALOT of first time season ticket holders at Levis who simply haven't learned the drill. It just takes time.

Once everyone has seen all the cool new stuff (and that included people who buy tix from Season Ticket Holders) this will all change.

Case in point, I have a friend who is a RAIDER fan. He asked if he could buy some of my tix simply because he wanted to see the new building. I didn't sell them to him BTW. After a few years, the newness of the whole thing will wear off and more people will be ther to watch games and not just check out the new toy in the bay area.

I have another friend who couldn't give 2 sh*ts about football, but SHE asked about my tix.

This will all work itself out in the end when people who never should have gotten tix sell theirs and more dedicated fans buy them and when all the shiny new toys aren't as shiny anymore.

Gee. I wonder how many YEARS that'll take. Maybe by then we will be in the cellar again and then you can say that it's not shiny and new anymore but the team sucks so why bother? Then I guess they'll return to the same Candlestick fan that tells you to sit down and shutup or they'll tell the ushers you're ruining their experience.

Meanwhile, we don't need home field advantage. Seattle only plays good at home because the air smells cleaner in the Northwest. Sure the stadium opens a few hours before the game starts but the fun is being in a club during the game even though you pay for a live game. We need to earn the right to be laughingstocks.

I guess we support the Niners. Yup, sure do. I can see that from my bank account. But, on Sunday, we have ONE JOB. As a whole, we FAIL

So in closing, as I said originally, to you and all those like you: Thank You for your continued support


You done whining?

"Its too hot!!!"

Oh please. Do you think it ain't hot in Alabama, Florida, or North Carolina? Peeps are just spoiled by the weather.

Yup its hotter in August, September, and sometimes even October but warmer in November, December, and January.

Anyone who suggests some sort of roof for Levis.....

....I just can't even finish that sentence.

LMFAO! Whining?! I would think you would come with something better. Man. Really? Bottom line if your not in your seat and you can't make noise cuz your to busy mesmerized by the stadium then I guess I'm the one in the wrong, right?

AMAZING

So not only are our "fans" cream puffs, they self righteously justify it. We must have unique issues in northern cali that no one else understands.

Funny how I was whining and then u post this

Missed point entirely.

Are the Niners moving somewhere else? No. Was staying at Candlestick an option? No.

Was this always going to be an issue? Yes.

Complaining about it don't change it. I'm just as guilty of whining BTW since my whine is about impatient fans who want it all NOW even though it was never going to happen. If your expectation was that a bunch of new fans were going to show up and the stadium was going to be among the loudest in the NFL and there would be no period of transition then your expectation was never realistic to begin with.

You were complaining about the "in the meantime" remark I made as if there was some other option that would have resulted in a different result.

There wasn't.

Niners needed new stadium. They got new stadium. It will and always was going to take time before the new crowd/stadium has a personality of it's own.

Not rocket science.
Make and app that shows how long a seat has been empty. Standing Room only or anyone with a lesser seat must pay $10 for that app. Once a better seat has been open (not sat in) halfway into the 2nd quarter, the fans with lesser seats or SRO can upgrade for $15 more.

York makes more money and we get the seats full.
I know a way to make the stadium crowd even quieter. Hire Jim Tomsula as the head coach.

49ers fans. Cowboys fans. The most fair weather fans in all of sports. Of course Jerry world is a done so sound is kept in and echoed so it seems louder.

Candlestick was a dirt bin located in the heart of San Fran, so all kinds of fans could access it.

Silicon valley's Levi's was specifically designed for corporate America, and it clearly reflected this year. Even sports media had a laugh about it on several occasions.

Good job Niner fans.
