Comment on How the 49ers Are Using Beacons to Help You Find Hot Dogs and Beer

Comments

I'm not commenting on the technology, but the organization itself.

They did a terrible job with that stadium. Want to know a terrible way to spend a Sunday? Staring directly into the sun watching a football game and succumbing to splitting headaches for 24 hours. They spent over $1B, they should've made the stadium a dome in that Santa Clara weather (like the stadium in Arizona) instead of positioning 75% of the crowd directly at the sun!

All the apps, beacons, and concession stand technology in the world won't keep fans in those seats during the game.
