Kezar Stadium was the first home of the San Francisco 49ers[5] and Oakland Raiders, as well many NFL Hall of Famers, historical NFL games, and the first "alley-oop".[6] The Raiders played at Kezar for their first four home games in 1960, and at Candlestick Park during the remainder of their first two seasons,[7] before Frank Youell Field was built as a temporary facility in Oakland. Defensive end Jim Marshall of the visiting Minnesota Vikings had his famous "wrong way run" at Kezar in 1964, against the 49ers on October 25.[8]
The 49ers played the final NFL game at Kezar in early 1971, losing the 1970 NFC Championship Game to the Dallas Cowboys 17–10 on January 3.[9] The 49ers moved to the more modern and accessible Candlestick Park (1960–2015) for the 1971 season, and played there for 43 years, through 2013.
