The 49ers will hold an autograph session and family-friendly activities on the field after the game.

Admission is $10, and parking is on a first-come, first-served basis in Gold Lot 23; Green CRI lots 1-5 and the Orange CRI Deck. Lots open at noon.

Spring game tickets provide free admission to the 49ers 6 p.m. baseball game against Rice University, which will include post-game fireworks.
