49ers Vs. Giants: What Are Your Viewing Plans?

The 49ers and Giants get going in less than 48 hours, which means everybody needs to figure out their viewing plans. I'm down in Las Vegas for the weekend and will likely be watching the game somewhere at the Mandalay Bay. Viewing plans remain TBD. There's a chance I end up watching most of the Patriots-Ravens game at the Sports Book and then watch the 49ers game upstairs in my hotel room. I'm not sure I need to be around some of the obnoxious folks that will be going crazy in the Sports Book.

What are people planning for Sunday's game? Anything new or something similar to last week? If you are planning a viewing party at your home, I got an email recently from some folks connected with Bus Stop in San Francisco with a great drink idea. They came up with something called "Big Red" for the game. It is available at Bus Stop, but they provided the recipe if you want to make it at home. I've also posted a picture of the drink after the jump.

4 parts Hornitos Plata Tequila
2 parts Cranberry Juice
A dash of Sweet-n-Sour mix
1 part Rose's Lime juice
Squeeze of fresh lemon and lime

Combine ingredients in a shaker over ice.
Strain and serve on the rocks.

Our house

our friends and family. We have the big screen and a pool – not sure if anyone will be brave enough to jump in when we win – but I will let you know!

True story – I got my granddaughter her first Niner Jersey – #85! – for the game last week. She was so excited for the first and last TD’s. The next generation.

Keg of Red Tail for the adults and BBQ pulled pork with coleslaw for everyone!

Bar within stumbling distance

My friends and I have a couple of tables at the bar that are always reserved for us during Niners games. There will probably be two buckets of beer on the table at any given time as we will be drinking heavily.

Between the beer buckets, with an unobstructed view of the TV, sits a battered, partially-broken, Niners lawn gnome named Gunther. The parts that have fallen off of him are in a red plastic cup that sits to his right. Whenever something good happens in the game (or pretty much whenever we feel like it), we put beer caps into Gunther’s head (his hat is one of the pieces that have fallen off of him). At half-time, Gunther gets emptied.

Our post-game shot is called “The Broken Gnome”, and I think this is how you make it (makes approx. 3 shots)

3 parts cherry vodka
1 part Triple Sec
Splash OJ
Splash pineapple juice
Splash grenadine

Shake hard, serve to drunk girls. Ta da!

I realize this sounds completely psychotic, and it is (the couple of games I’ve watched by myself were pretty mortifying), but it’s worked! All hail Gunther!

And here is a picture to prove that my stupid little story isn’t an alcohol-induced hallucination.

Can't decide whether to stay home or go to a sports bar

A friend invited me to a local (DC) sports bar, but sometimes I don’t like watching big games with large crowds. Plus this game makes me super nervous. Though I’m sure a beer or two would fix that.

Just like last week

I’ll be at home by myself. No distractions, no stupid questions, no one to see me cry. lol win or lose, I’m sure there will be tears. It would be nice to be around friends and family but most of them aren’t 49ers fans. Just my brother and I but he lives in another city. I hope my neighbors don’t complain to the office managers about the noise. I’m actually surprised they didn’t last week.

At home, just like last week

My wife, my son and daughter-in-law and a bunch of their friends will be coming over. We’re a superstitious bunch so we figure we have to watch the game in as close to the same fashion as we did for the Saints game, including wearing the same clothes. I just don’t know if I’ll be able to handle it though. I’m not a young man and that was about the most stressful, albeit best, games I’ve ever witnessed. Let’s see, beer, rye, beer, emergency oxygen mask, beer and beer. Yep. I’ve got all the essentials!

Can't Watch/Won't Watch

with anyone that’s not unabashedly cheering for the niners and paying attention to the game

also – my big prediction for the game: Joe Staley will catch a touchdown pass, mark my words

by foosball4949 on Jan 20, 2012 8:26 PM PST reply actions  

Staley

Anybody notice that formation last week where they had Sopoaga and Justin Smith in as eligible receivers? I think it was a give to Gore for 2 yards. I wonder if they’ll run a pass play off of that with the same personnel.

by AptosNinerFan on Jan 20, 2012 8:40 PM PST up reply actions  

I noticed

I think a lot of coaches do in game planning to try to setup up defenses to hit big plays. I think that the 49ers are The Only Team that sets up defenses within multiple games. I bet you that one of the coaches calls a play that looks exactly like another play that was successful in the Saints game and forces the Giants to over-commit and hits them for a big gain.

by agchee on Jan 20, 2012 8:49 PM PST up reply actions  

yup I agree

Staley started his college career as a TE before he grew into an OL body, I’ve been saying ever since we drafted him that we should use him as an eligible receiver.

I also have a sneaking suspicion that after watching him run and block on that 28-yrd TD by Alex, that he’ll get a reward this week.

by foosball4949 on Jan 20, 2012 9:06 PM PST up reply actions  

I like it but...

Only if the offense isn’t moving the ball well. If they are able to move the ball without trick plays, I don’t want them to do anything crazy like the flicker to Gore. That play really slowed down a good drive.

by agchee on Jan 20, 2012 9:14 PM PST up reply actions  

Yeah he was

Too bad he broke open when Alex was flushed out of the pocket. I’m sure he heard about it from Joe right away.

My dad did offer to travel down to SF for the games, but they don’t seem to do well when I am in attendance (some of the lowlights): Saw Jerry get injured, the Farve-ing at the Metradome, and the loss to Dallas this year. I did get to see G. Hurst’s TD in overtime against the Jets, and them finally winning in Seattle when i was there (took 6 damn times!)

last week it was Parabola by Firestone Walker.

While I was down in Seattle for the game over Christmas I picked up a bunch of beers: Some dogfish head, russian river, and some others.

The stouts I have now are the Dogfather from Idaho,Great Divide oak aged Yetti, Wolly Mammoth from Ak, and a pothole filler by Howe Sound brewing.

I prob.first have some barley wine by Driftwood from Van Island (amazing brewery) then on to the Dogfather and then a 90min ipa for (hopefully) a victory drink.

Yeah, we're expecting 17inches on Sunday evening Afg time.

My faith in our team and my determination to watching this game are being tested. :-)

One thing thats been making me mad

Is that ESPN is so quick to point out that the Giants are healthier then they were in week 10 and thus should win. What makes me mad though is that NO ONE is talking about how the 49ers best offensive player.. Frank Gore.. Didnt play either. Not a word. If Harbaugh decides to let Frank go he will rip the Giants apart. He should have carried more against N.O regardless of the outcome.

I'll be front-and-center at the Valley Tavern in Noe.

Go Niners.

Official prediction: The Angels will win the AL west this season.

Hi All – 1st time poster from UK…..
Been reading your excellent comments and insights for the last few months, and now putting shoulder to the wheel and braving finally getting a post ! Been a fan since 1986 when I listened to commentary on a crackly radio late at night on AFN. Will be feeding my 13 week old son tomorrow night whilst listening to TuneIn Radio The Bone 107.7, whilst squealing/yelling/accusing the umpire of myopia/bribery (yes, I can tell PI via radio)..
We can do this – it is written. So proud of our team this year. Peace to all.

Was all dialed in to watch with my 10-year-old son

as we took in the Saints together and it was one I told him we’d be talking about when I’m old. My wife says some friends invited us over and I agree BEFORE recalling the dude is from
New Jeresey. Long story short: he’s a Giants fan and I told him aint no way and my wife is pissed…thinks I’m taking it too serious (whatever)… so I’ll be watching solo and thank God because I’m ready to go freaking insane!! Go Niners!!

Will be at an Irish pub where a friend of mine works the bar.

Because otherwise, you’d be hard-pressed to find a place that’s open till 4 in the morning on a working Monday in Germany.

If any of you happen to be in Hannover, Lower Saxony tomorrow night, it’s the one that says Hannover Centrum.

Watching the game from the Oregon territory.

Looking foward to the NINERS beating the Giants for a second time. It will be so sweet to get back to the big dance, and shut up everybody who is talking nonstop about the g-men.
Cant Wait!!

Arlington VA bars?

Anyone know a good place to watch w/ other 49ers fans in the Arlington area? DC bar would also work.

I don’t want to be surrounded by a bunch of Giants fans (win or lose) while I watch this game.

Ashland Wisconsin

a town of 8,651 Packer fans, 4 Niner fans, and my good friend Ken…a Giants fan from Jersey. Of the Niner fans, one is me, one is from England, one is from Minnesota, and the coolest one is my 11 year old daughter. I’ll be watching with the other 3 Niner fans and about 65 ex-packer backers (go Niners, they agree) at our local Brew Pub/ Pizzeria. Ocean (my daughter) has proudly worn her Jerry Rice jersey to school every friday this year. Now if I can just get my other 2 daughters and my partner converted. Go Niners!

I will be watching at home again this week with my wife. The only difference being a co-worker, fellow Californian transplant and Niner fan will be over. I invited him because his bro in law where he usually watches is a tool and always goes for whoever is playing San Francisco.

On the couch in my hotel room, probably accompanied by the wife (grumbling throughout ;] ) and a cat or two. Should be exciting!

Will have a small party in my place

although the BJs brewhouse across my house seems tempting… lots of 49ers fans there last week

I'll be at a rush event for a fraternity.

They turned their day party into a 49ers viewing party. Automatic best one on campus in my book just based on that!

Got love for the WCC.

Vegas baby!

Staying at MGM, not sure where I will watch yet.
