I had the pleasure of attending the latest 49er game with a good friend of mine. She had the honor of being invited by a company she works with to watch and the enjoy the game from one of their luxury suites. Good fortune shined upon me when I was invited to be her guest! I am a 49er fan from birth so win or lose, I root for my hometown team.
We started the day walking around the outside of the stadium checking out the various activities and booths they have to keep the crowds busy before the gates open.
After checking out the Levi’s trailer, we went up to the suite which was GORGEOUS! I have never watched a game from a suite before so it was a really special event for me. After being cleared to enter the suite area, we were greeted with my favorite Sunday treat, mimosas! We then went into the suite which was light, airy and open. The suite seats were plush, leather and very comfortable. Of course, in the suite there were more drinks and plenty of food. It was so cozy yet elegant.
As if that wasn’t enough, we were then given passes to go down onto the field before the game!! It was as if Santa himself gave me the pass. This was how excited I was. We got to watch the players warm up and I even said hello and got an acknowledgement from Jed York (CEO of the team).
The game, which I had few expectations of winning was actually really competitive. The 49ers (3-10) were playing the Titans (8-5). We have had a rough year; we were 0-10 at one point. Since we added quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to the team, we have won 3 games in a row. I did not believe for one minute that we’d win 4 in a row but I was wrong. The score went back and forth for the entire game and the 49ers won with a field goal in the final 2 seconds of the game!!
Being invited to and attending this event with my friend was a real treat! It was more than I could have imagined and I was incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to participate!
