I'm sure you have some amazing memories though. I always hated how windy it got there too. Every time
Of course.
My dad used to take me to Giants games there. I was there with my Dad the day Willie McCovey played his last game. First game I took my then girlfriend now wife to was the season opener vs the Jets when Garrison Hearst went 96 yards in overtime to win. I had to warn her that they don't ALL end like that. LOL.
More recently and toward the end of Candlesticks run I was at the Niner-Saints playoff game that was so crazy at the end, The Packer game when Kap went off, and I was luckly enough to be at the last game there ever where Bowman had "The Pick at the 'Stick" to seal a Playoff spot. Funny story on that later...
I loved that old place, but I always knew as a building it was a dump.
...a building built for cheaply for baseball on the coldest and windiest place in the Bay Area, semi-enclosed later to block the wind and then eventually made into full time football stadium after the Giants moved. Crowded, narrow hallways, no sightlines to the field when you went for food, and the place always smelled like urine. The mens bathrooms were troughs rather than urinals in many spots. LOL. Cracks in concrete everywhere.
There are some here who long for old Candlestick and hate Levis. Those people are nuts. Levis is 100x better than Candlestick. It just doesn't have the history and the mystique. Those things tho aren't intrinsic to the structure. Its about history and legend. If they ever get another SB winner in that building, it'll have its own history.
I can only imagine there were people who hated Candlestick and loved Kezar. It's just natural. There are some Dallas fans who hate Jerryworld. It is what it is.
As for the funny story I mentioned before...
After the game was over, fans were literally ripping seats out of the concrete to take them with them. I spoke with a security guard. As I said, most men's rooms were troughs not urinals, but one bathroom with urinals had been raided. Someone stole a urinal. I mean...I dunno what even to do with that information. Who would want it enough to put in that kind of effort? How would they even get out of the building?
People are weird.
