    Upgrading the video board is not going to enhance the fan experience. And stop focusing on the suites first, this is a horrible idea. If the 49ers owners actually cared, they would provide shade for the fans who fill up the majority of the seats, and they would improve the playing surface.

    As a Faithful from Australia since 1982, l had the full pleasure of going to Candlestick Park several times over the years. Candlestick really didn't offer much other than historical significance and nearby presense to San Francisco, in which you couldn't put a price to. I recently took my family to Levi's Stadium for the first time this year to watch the Niners - Cowboys game. Unfortunately l couldn't have been any more dissapointed with the overall look, feel and experience of Levi's. Firstly, the nearly three hours it took to travel from downtown San Francisco to Santa Clara is really unacceptable. ( Bus from San Francisco Train terminal to Millbrae terminal, on-board a Caltrain, followed up on a light rail.. just to reach the stadium ). There just has to be a simpler direct route on offer to fans. Secondly, the lack of any amenities, facilities outside of the stadium is a disgrace. To not be able to buy the kids any food or drinks anywhere nearby while waiting for the gates to open is just pathetic. Thirdly, to line up in very long queues awaiting to be let into the Museum, only to found out they are charging $49.00 US dollars for entry is taking the piss out of people. For a family of five that's just ridulous pricing. And finally, in my opinion, aesthetically the stadium lacks any redeemable features. They should have taken a good look at AT&T Park, nee Oracle Park for decent design cues.

    That's because Levi's stadium is a butt-ugly design. It's one of the ugliest stadiums in the NFL. Look at Arrowhead stadium in KC. Built in the 70's, it still has an amazingly graceful look with excellent sightlines and convenient access to vendors on each level. Oh, and parking is fantastic too.
