49ers fan dies after collapsing at Levi's Stadium

All due respect to the affected, this is not a good start for Levi's stadium...

I dunno, I live in Kansas now (14 years). A warm day is in the 90s. Went to a Rockies game a few years ago it was 80-86ish when we got there about an hour or so before sunset. The sun was beating down directly on us, after a few minutes it started to feel extremely hot. A few minutes more and it was beginning to get miserable. I went back into the refreshments area just to get out of the sun. I can certainty understand how someone in direct sunlight could succumb to it. I really feel for him, his friends and his family.

Since when us 80% hot? This is speculation.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the stadium.

Actually when we went down there for the game between the Hawks-9ers in 2009 it was one of those weird bay area heat waves, and we were sitting in the direct sun. The air temp. was in the 90's that day and in the sun it was brutal. The game was also brutal as the 9ers crushed us. (the 2 Gore 90 yard runs) remember that one?

I do.

If I recall it was week 2? Still warm weather in the bay.

Still tho, that's REALLY warm for the 'stick.

I read that article and wondered if the guy was drinking or not because I don't think it mentioned it. For me if I'm in direct sunlight and its 80+ the last thing I want to do is drink because I know I'll just sweat to death. Looking at Levi's and seeing how theres almost no shade anywhere makes me appreciate Century Link's huge roofs. Even tho we have more of the elements to deal with than hot sunny weather obviously. That news video I watched stated multiple issues for that stadium, some sections ran out of hotdogs, tailgaters had to park really far away, expensive parking, etc etc.

I feel like maybe my computer is broken, and the phrase "107 degrees" is being replaced by "80 degrees", because there's no logical explanation for anyone to get within 20 miles of health problems from dehydration ON A FREAKING 80-DEGREE DAY EVEN WHILE DRINKING A LOT OF ALCOHOL!
