The 49ers Made The Super Bowl Thanks To The Most Hostile, Competitive, Prestigious Event In The World - The Bussin' Beer Olympics

I know people will say George Kittle is joking around and hamming it up with our beloved Bussin Boys. Not me. Competition breeds success and there's no more hostile competition than the Bussin Beer Olympics. An event won by George Kittle. An event that jumpstarted a Super Bowl run. An event that 49ers fans can look back on and smile knowing it taught George Kittle and the rest of the team what it takes to be champions. You don't think this is Super Bowl prep? 

You don't know pressure until you're staring at a shirtless Glenny Balls and Dana Beers while trying to drain the last cup in pong. You don't know pressure until you get tackled into a pool. This is what it looks like when you know the season is about to be special. 

Credit Bussin for 1) being allowed in media day and 2) asking the questions that need to be answered. They are the ones who got George Kittle to deliver a beautiful answer about what it means to be for the boys. There's nothing better than that. There's nothing that gets you going than hearing someone say you need the boys. It's true. If you can't be surrounded by the boys and have everything, you have nothing. 

We can talk about the development of Brock Purdy. We can talk about Shanahan's scheme or the defense or the ridiculous offensive line. But none of this would be happening if it wasn't for a special moment in the summer. A moment that let George Kittle know he can make another run. A moment that really defined history. The Beer Olympics is what brought the Niners to this point.
