Sad 49ers Fan Gains YouTube Fame

Most Bay Area football fans will watch this Sunday’s Super Bowl between the New York Giants and New England Patriots. But many San Francisco fans will feel a twinge of resentment thinking, what if the 49ers had won the NFC Championship game?

Some Niner fans took the loss especially hard, including 4-year-old Johnny Price of Vacaville. Video of the youngster crying after the loss is going viral on YouTube.

The boy’s tearful reaction was captured by his father Ryan and now has over 440,000 views since being posted a week ago.

San Francisco 49ers President and CEO Jed York saw the video online and tweeted “Couldn’t have said it better myself.” Don’t worry Johnny, the 49ers will be back next season.
