I want to go to the Monday night game against the Cards on 12/14 but I've never been to a 49ers' game before or Candlestick Park for that matter.

How much do they charge for parking? Any suggestions on any lots? Candlestick is kind of out there so what are the other types of public transportation available?

Thanks in advance to my fellow NN people and may that game allow the 49ers to break their playoffless-streak.
