For 43 seasons, fans have been cheering the team on there, so this marks the end of an era.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many of the 49er Faithful, the game-day fun starts long before kickoff. Prior to each home game, the parking lot outside Candlestick Park comes to life as thousands of fans gather for tailgate parties and to cheer on their NFL heroes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of makeshift communities emerge on the asphalt. One of these impromptu neighborhoods pops up around a light pole bearing the letter “E.” It’s here, over the years, that strangers became friends and family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a cold Sunday morning earlier this month, excitement built around the “E” pole a few hours before the 49ers played their penultimate regular season home game against the Seattle Seahawks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the first to arrive was the Vigil family, who drove up from Salinas. Danny Vigil Sr., 61, became a 49ers season ticket holder in 1980. The previous season, San Francisco had won only two games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I first got my tickets, I mean, the team wasn’t doing anything,” Vigil said. “We could go in and almost sit anywhere.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">\u003ciframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/S7pxVXI-5Qc\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>Vigil watched the 49ers win six games during his first year at Candlestick, but the team’s fortunes would change dramatically in 1981. Led by Coach Bill Walsh, the 49ers won 13 regular season games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The playoffs that season featured maybe the greatest play in Candlestick Park history: \"The Catch,\" when receiver Dwight Clark snagged a Joe Montana pass late in the fourth quarter of the NFC Championship Game against the Dallas Cowboys. The catch gave the 49ers the win and sent them to their first Super Bowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m just thankful I had the opportunity to come here for all those years,” Vigil said. “We just had a blast.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the fun for the Salinas car salesman has been passing on the traditions to his son, Danny Vigil Jr. The 41-year-old has in turn shared the experience of tailgating with his own children and grandchildren.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is all part of the atmosphere of coming out to Candlestick,\" the younger Vigil said. “Eating up, filling up and then getting into the game.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few cars down, Darrell Harrington and Ed Heffernan took in the sights and sounds. This was their final game at Candlestick. For nearly two decades, the friends have made the trek from their homes in Solano County to watch the 49ers in action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">\u003ciframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/g-cyAlPjxx8\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>“It was kind of quieter coming down,” Harrington said. “Lot of things rattled around in our head. Probably not overly emotional, but we’re just thinking about ‘Wow, this is our last trip down.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrington and Heffernan won’t be following the team to Santa Clara next year, where a new stadium awaits. They said the added mileage played the biggest role in their decision. Cost was also an issue: With seat licenses and ticket prices, Harrington said, they'd have to pay $5,700 to keep the two seats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I brought some ticket stubs that were from the NFC Championship Game against Dallas with 'The Catch',” Harrington said. “The ticket was $20.

For 43 seasons, fans have been cheering the team on there, so this marks the end of an era.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many of the 49er Faithful, the game-day fun starts long before kickoff. Prior to each home game, the parking lot outside Candlestick Park comes to life as thousands of fans gather for tailgate parties and to cheer on their NFL heroes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of makeshift communities emerge on the asphalt. One of these impromptu neighborhoods pops up around a light pole bearing the letter “E.” It’s here, over the years, that strangers became friends and family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a cold Sunday morning earlier this month, excitement built around the “E” pole a few hours before the 49ers played their penultimate regular season home game against the Seattle Seahawks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the first to arrive was the Vigil family, who drove up from Salinas. Danny Vigil Sr., 61, became a 49ers season ticket holder in 1980. The previous season, San Francisco had won only two games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Led by Coach Bill Walsh, the 49ers won 13 regular season games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The playoffs that season featured maybe the greatest play in Candlestick Park history: \"The Catch,\" when receiver Dwight Clark snagged a Joe Montana pass late in the fourth quarter of the NFC Championship Game against the Dallas Cowboys. The catch gave the 49ers the win and sent them to their first Super Bowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m just thankful I had the opportunity to come here for all those years,” Vigil said. “We just had a blast.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the fun for the Salinas car salesman has been passing on the traditions to his son, Danny Vigil Jr. The 41-year-old has in turn shared the experience of tailgating with his own children and grandchildren.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is all part of the atmosphere of coming out to Candlestick,\" the younger Vigil said. “Eating up, filling up and then getting into the game.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few cars down, Darrell Harrington and Ed Heffernan took in the sights and sounds. This was their final game at Candlestick. For nearly two decades, the friends have made the trek from their homes in Solano County to watch the 49ers in action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">\u003ciframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/g-cyAlPjxx8\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>“It was kind of quieter coming down,” Harrington said. “Lot of things rattled around in our head. Probably not overly emotional, but we’re just thinking about ‘Wow, this is our last trip down.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrington and Heffernan won’t be following the team to Santa Clara next year, where a new stadium awaits. They said the added mileage played the biggest role in their decision.
