Make California Post a Preferred Source The 7-1 San Francisco 49ers are facing the 4-5 Dallas Cowboys at the iconic AT&T Stadium on Sunday.
But the game might feel like a home contest for the 49ers fans, given how many of their fans are supporting in person.
Videos showing a sea of red-wearing fans entering AT&T Stadium are going viral on Sunday.
The Athletic’s Jon Machota made an X post showing fans entering the stadium with the caption, “Doors have opened at AT&T Stadium. A lot of red in the crowd for Cowboys vs. 49ers” that has tallied over 100,000 views in less than two hours.
Another X video shows how many 49ers fans are sitting in their seats before the game begins.
“Lots of Niners fans taking over AT&T Stadium a little over an hour before kick,” the post was captioned.
This sea of San Francisco fans has irked at least one Cowboys staff member.
“I ain’t never seen this many visiting fans. Ever,” a Cowboys security guard told The California Post’s Evan Webeck, adding that he needs to have a word with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
49ers fans are called the “Faithful” for a reason, and they always show up in droves to the team’s road games.
But it happening for a game against the Cowboys feels significant, given that Dallas is meant to be “America’s Team.”
Perhaps that nickname should be given to San Francisco after Sunday’s showing.
