Super Bowl week is upon us and the unofficial national holiday is exciting this time around for San Francisco 49ers fans as our team is in the NFL title game for the first time in 17 years. Despite the 49ers currently being 3.5 point favorites, the win is no guarantee with the way the Baltimore Ravens have been playing recently.
Most of the focus will be on Sunday, February 3, when the game kicks off at 6:25 p.m. (ET). However, the week leading up to the big game is equally as exciting. Here is a full schedule of what is in store for the 49ers and Ravens and the fans in attendance. (All times ET):

Eric Melendez has been a life-long 49ers fan that bleeds Red and Gold. While
growing up in Orange, CA he was behind enemy lines when the Rams played in
Anaheim in the ’80s and most of the ’90s. This however allowed him to see the 49ers
every year when they came into town as his dad had season tickets for the Rams.
Having lived in San Francisco since 2008, his appreciation for the Niners has only
grown as he is able to cheer on the 49ers with locals at the bar and attend home
games.
