Days before the football playoffs arrive at the home of the San Francisco 49ers, there’s a quiet wait at Levi Stadium.
“We had two weeks off and a, now it’s getting closer. For me, I needed some sort of recharge. I had to come to the stadium and feel that feeling, “ said Jesse Mendez, a member of the fan group “408 Fidela”
The embodiment of successful emotions is on the hangers and shelves of the 49ers Team Store. On Wednesday, there was a slow but steady stream of Faithful entering the store and coming out with new merchandise they hoped would boost the team and mojo.
andquot;I always had to come here, I need to get new towels from a rally. New needles. Maybe they have something for an upcoming game. So, I always want to be prepared, andquot; said a delighted fan, Rudy Reyes, standing outside the store.
Four years ago, the same two teams faced off in the NFC Championship Game and the Niners came out on top. And two years ago “frozen tundra”Lambo Field in Green Bay, Wisc. , favored San Francisco’s game-winning shot.
On Saturday, these teams will meet for an NFL postseason record 10th time in this year’s divisional playoffs. Some Niners Faithful feel that no win like a new swing will hurt their cause.
“I don’t know if it helps the team, but it gives me confidence in the team, you know what, at least I didn’t let you down” Reyes said.
The team is aware that their fans aren’t out of luck either. A number of protests are planned around the Bay Area the day before the game. And there is a bell party on battle day to excite The Faithful and the rangers.
“We strive to replicate the level of the Levi’s Stadium experience as much as possible with these free events for Bay Area fans. said Clarke, the team’s senior director of fan engagement. “We always think about the football team first. How can we create the best home advantage? How can we excite our fans more than anyone else? This is how they create home field advantage. And the best advantage, which is the competitive advantage of our football team”
Bars and restaurants in the area are also preparing as in previous years, as customers grow to follow the action.
So from now until the scoreboard clock hits zero, it’s red and gold in every size and style because the 49ers’ playoff run is on a sprint.
