49ers hand out cards telling fans to sit down

Dec 9, 2013, 1:56 PM | Updated: 2:29 pm

Last week the team was telling fans how to cheer. Now the San Francisco 49ers are telling fans not to stand up throughout the game.

Seahawks fan Keri Salemme was stunned to be given a card Sunday at Candlestick Park as Seattle squared off against the Niners, telling her essentially to sit down.

“I just got yellow carded by the 49ers. Sorry for being a #seahawks fan? #FortyWhiners” she wrote on Instagram.

In contrast, Seahawks fans were on their feet throughout last Monday night’s overwhelming win over New Orleans at CenturyLink Field.

“Not only was it encouraged, it was expected,” says Seahawks season ticket holder Michael Simeona.
