Was there one inspirational moment in team history that confirmed your 49ers fandom?
It would definitely be the 1994 season when we went on to beat the San Diego Chargers in the Super Bowl and bring the fifth Lombardi Trophy home! This was also the same year that my daughter Sarina was born so 1994 is very special for me. One of the biggest highlights as a fan was having the opportunity to attend the Super Bowl game in Miami this past February!
What 49ers tradition or superstition do you/your family have?
We don't do too much, but we do record every game and wear our 49ers jerseys/gear for every game no matter where we are, obviously if we are at games, but if we are home or on trips, we always have our Niners gear ready to rep. I've worn many jerseys through the years but with the current squad, I am wearing my Jimmy G jersey.
What impact has the 49ers had on your life?
Luckily I married a hardcore 49ers fan who was a season ticket holder at Candlestick Park and we were able to share so many great memories there together. Also, all of my family and everyone on my husband's side are all 49ers fans! It's just a great way for all of us to be able to come together, see family, it keeps us connected. We have had numerous events, tailgates, and parties surrounding the 49ers over the years. Beyond our lives as fans, the 49ers have given my family additional opportunities as well! My son worked with the 49ers EDU team in their STEAM program and is now a student teacher and my daughter was one of the first women to be selected for the Denise DeBartolo-York women's internship program and turned that into a full-time role as a Video Producer for 49ers Studios.
