OK, so Im going to the official tailgate, and gonna be there a few days early to drink a bunch of wine....but

Where the hell is the best place to stay to do the following:

1. Hang out with most of you once you get here
2. Be close enough to the stadium to walk to the tailgate and stagger back afterwords
3. Head out to SF to eat good seafood and see Alcatraz
4. Head up to wine country and ......well.....drink

Help an ignorant former Southern Californian out, who now lives in TN

And make sure the wife drives, since you're gonna be joining the rest of us drunks drinking heavily... THIS is the reason I don't rent a car when I fly down there. I'd rather be a bum and mooch rides off the locals or the peeps that drive up from SoCal (i.e. bgrn

)

And BTW, the Hilton bar makes some damn good Bloody Mary's, for that early morning pickup after a night of hard drinking. Me and ccRaider and chitown had a few of those last year.. good stuff..

That's the one I booked!!! I hope they don't charge me yet. I don't think they do until you get there.
