A Formidable Farewell to the Stick

Now a week removed from the historic Monday night on the outskirts of San Francisco, niners fans can now reflect on the significance of one Candlestick Park and the end of a legacy in the San Francisco Bay Area. To say the least, Candlestick Park had a very fitting send off with multiple pregame ceremonies, two card stunts during the game, postgame hall of famer talks, and a spectacular fireworks show. Emotions ran high throughout the whole game and many players were in tears before and after the game. All in all the niners did an amazing job honoring what has been an amazing 5 decades at Candlestick Park. 69,500 faithful fans packed the building one last time to say goodbye and close the last chapter of a long standing building. As one of the 69,500 in attendance I can say that Candlestick Park on Monday, December 23rd is the loudest I have ever heard any professional stadium. And although there is a slim chance that there might be a home playoff game, the stick was awarded its well deserved goodbye. From all niners fans, Thank you Candlestick Park for all the endless memories and for providing us with a home for San Francisco 49ers football.
