four women at the breaking point. >> we were desperate. >> in fear every day. >> an investigative reporter comes to the rescue. does he become the target? >> this is a very home of super bowl lviii between the 49ers the chiefs, this is kpix cbs news bay area. >> now at 11:00, the bay is ready for super bowl lviii. the faithful out in force tonight starting the celebrations early here and in las vegas. >> this is travis king, i'm at joey's tavern in las vegas, nevada, and we're ready for

the super bowl, baby. let's go. lorz oh, he's ready, and we're live here in las vegas at the sportsbook. the pregame celebrations already in full swing. >> and we'll let you know where you can catch the game with other members of the faithful in the bay area. but it's not all celebrations as a crowd in san francisco's chinatown set a waymo robotic taxi on fire tonight. we have the latest. i'm andrea nakano. just 16 hours to go before super bowl lviii between the 49ers the chiefs kicks off in las vegas. live look at allegiant stadium. the final preps are done. the team game plans are set. more than 100 million eyes will be glued on what's going on inside that stadium tomorrow. and we've got complete team coverage tonight to make sure you are ready to cheer on the red and gold, kelsi thorud and matt lively both in vegas. who is hyping the players in that

locker room, matt? >> reporter: hey, andrea, kelsi and i live at the westgate sportsbook. and i was say, kelsi, i feel like i hear everybody giving everybody pep talks. >> reporter: a lot of people are putting a lot of money on this game, and they have a lot of ideas. >> reporter: that's exactly right. they're giving the pep talks down there. someone has to do it for the niners. i know one guy in particular who wants revenge on the chiefs. >> patrick mahomes and the chiefs, you guys get a rematch, how exciting. >> pay back, baby. let's go. >> reporter: bosa's message for tomorrow is short and sweet. let's hope he had a little more to say when he delivered his weekly pep talk to the team earlier today. >> i don't remember the first time, which is surprising, but i usually remember traumatic experiences. >> it's funny how guys who are so confident in everything they do, they're not used to speaking the front of groups. he used to tell me that's the

most nervous he'd be throughout the week. >> i've kind of enjoyed dealing with the stress and kind of facing something that i'm not used to. >> reporter: now he's got the biggest speech of his career, and the nerves are coming out. >> whichever i think about it i kind of get anxious, but once i get it down, kind of what i'm thinking to say, i'll be chilling. >> reporter: and of course, i had to ask him if he'd give us an idea of what he'd say. >> i have a couple thoughts in mind that i won't share. >> reporter: i would love to know what nick bosa said to the team. >> i would like to know what he said. i'm sure it was very calm and mild mannered like he always is. and kelsi, you've been spending a lot of time with a faithful over there who made that trip to las vegas. how are they feeling the night before the super bowl? >> reporter: yeah, you know, matt's been talking to all the player, and they're super hyped, but i would almost say that the fans are even more --

>> reporter: i think you're right. >> reporter: -- excited. there are people here from across the country and the world. we have talked to people from germany, from ireland, from the east coast, and of course, from the bay area. i actually caught up with some of the 408 faithful this afternoon. when it comes to where the party was at tonight, it was at joey's tavern in las vegas. that is the local niners bar here in las vegas, and it was packed with fans. not only did they have a couple of former niners players there signing autograph, they also had the gold rush cheerleaders there, who were taking photos with all the fans. they were so excited for this game. the countdown is really on. we talked to so many people from all over the country who showed um to joey's tonight. here's a little bit of some of the

people we talked to. >> bang, bang, niner gang. i'm glam niner. >> niner gang. >> gold blooded all day long. >> that's it, that's what we do. >> we came like new year's eve and we came -- and we was here with the chapter members here, and we said we wanted to come back and bring our friends so they can get the experience as well. >> only place in vegas to be. it's like levi's south. >> we go big, we go hard. it's vegas. we do it right. >> reporter: i probably left joey's, i would say, around 9:30 maybe, and it was just getting started. i mean, those guys are going to be there all night long. and that's actually a 24-hour restaurant. >> reporter: i was just going to say, it's las vegas. >> reporter: it doesn't close, so there's a lot of people that are going to be there and they're going to stay through the game the next day. >> reporter: levi's south. >> reporter: exactly. exactly. you know, they picked the right spot to watch the super bowl, that's for sure. it's fun down there, so. >> i keep forgetting, vegas is always open. when you live

here, you know that some places close pretty early on, but wow, i hope you two get some sleep tonight, because you got a big day tomorrow. what time is start time tomorrow for you guys? >> reporter: we're just discussing that now. >> reporter: i know. >> reporter: yeah, and by the way, andrea, we've been here six nights. we are well aware of the 24-hour las vegas rule, and a little sick of it. >> reporter: at this point i don't know what time of day it. is i don't know what day of the week it is. you know, i'm just going, i just have the super bowl clock, the countdown clock we have there, i just follow that. that's how i know. >> all right, well thank you so much to both of you for your coverage. we hope you'll be coming home with the 49ers soon with a 49ers win. so matt -- >> reporter: i'll see you in sport, andrea. >> we'll see you in sports, all right, guys, thank you. at least a dozen of the 408 faithful, named for the san jose area code made the trek out and are enjoyed events held for the fans. many 408s follow the team for big games on the road even if they can't follow

the team all the way inside the stadium. >> for me personally, i know a lot of us, we went to the super bowl in 2020 in miami, and that was heartbreaking. this is a revenge tour. i'm here for it. i don't have a ticket, but i'm here supporting my team. >> she's been meeting 49er fans from the south bay and all over the world. people coming together from different backgrounds with a shared love of the red and gold. here in the bay businesses are celebrating as well as they see a boost in customers cheering on the 49ers. da lin shows us the work being done at one popular 49er bar. >> reporter: of all the districts in san francisco, history tells us the mission will likely have the most festive atmosphere and the loudest fans on super bowl sunday. this was the scene after the nfc championship win. fans blocked off streets to

party. restaurants and bars are ready for the big crowds. >> january and february kind of quieter month, particularly january after the holidays. this is huge for us. you know, it's great for the city. we see more people coming out. we see more foot traffic. hey guy, welcome. >> reporter: lloyd owns teeth bar near the corner of mission and 19th streets. >> we're going to have another tv right up here so. this is where i'm putting a big screen tv. we bought a 75-inch tv to put right there. >> reporter: they brought in extra tvs, double the food and drinks, and all hands on deck. >> we have our entire staff working on sunday. so every bartender that we could get we have signed up far shift. same with the kitchen. >> reporter: he sold out all of the reserved tables within three days. they'll stock some smaller walk-in tables. they expect roughly 100 fans to pack inside and out. >> i want to watch the 49ers game here, but it's fully booked here, you know, so i have to, unfortunately, stay at home and watch it. >> reporter: a regular of teeth

bar, abner says he's cautiously optimistic about the outcome. >> i've been nervous for the last couple nights and have been having trouble sleeping already. hopefully tonight we get good rest and we'll be ready tomorrow. >> they're never going to lose, and they're always going to win. >> reporter: so you're not nervous? >> yeah, not nervous. >> reporter: some fans are expecting a blowout 49ers win. >> we're going to cheer for them, and go 49ers. >> reporter: a win for the niners will be a big win for the region. >> hopefully the niners win and people stick around and celebrate. >> when the 49ers win, not if, when the team wins, a lot of these fans are expected to spill out into the street to celebrate the big win and dance the night away. >> wow, da is a little confident about tomorrow. well, just like after the nfc championship win, san francisco is shutting down freeway ramps and some streets in and around the mission. starting at 7:00 tomorrow night all these spots

will be closed. that includes north and southbound lanes of 101 at cesar chavez, as well as the north lanes at mission and debose, both directions of 280 closed at geneva avenue as well as the northbound lanes at san jose avenue. all right, that's a lot of street names there, but don't worry, we've got all of this information covered on our website, kpix.com. and taking a live look at chase center, the 49ers are hosting an official super bowl watch party at thrive city tomorrow. fans will be able to watch the game on that giant video board. the watch party starts at 2:00. the event is free, but you have to get on to the 49ers website and get a ticket. or just stay at home and watch it here with us. kpix is the only place you can catch super bowl lviii tomorrow from las vegas. coverage begins at 3:00 before the 3:30 kick-off right here on cbs news bay area and streaming on paramount+.

and we have much more on the lead-up to super bowl lviii, including a look at some of the strangest prop bets and how much you could win if they pay off. and it's not all super bowl. after the break we will take you on a trip around the bay to see how communities are kicking off the lunar new year. no, no, it is all super bowl. here's the super bowl forecast in vegas. here's the super bowl forecast if you're going to be here at thrive city. i've now covered the super bowl. i'm going to use all of my two minutes with you when we get back together in the complete forecast to talk about the next series of storms that could be coming this way. we got a lot of things to look at coming up in the first alert forecast in just a minute.

growing up, my parents wanted me to become a doctor or an engineer. those are good careers! but i chose a different path. first, as mayor and then in the legislature. i enshrined abortion rights in our california constitution. in the face of trump, i strengthened hate crime laws and lowered the costs for the middle class. now i'm running to bring the fight to congress. you were always stubborn. and on that note, i'm evan low, and i approve this message.

well, san francisco fire says a group of 10 to 15 people set this waymo robotaxi on fire tonight in chinatown. this video posted to x not long ago shows flames and a huge plume of smoke coming from inside the car, the entire cab engulfed. this is video of the aftermath posted by frisco live 415. the smoke still pouring out of the cab as well as some graffiti on the side. the entire top of the car is completely gone. now, waymo tells us the fire was started when someone threw a firecracker into the car. and

this video also posted by frisco live shows the exact same intersection not long before that fire. you can see a large group of people blocking the road, and they were setting off fireworks tonight. this is more video posted on x showing what led up to the fire. a group of people was seen tagging the outside of the waymo. a few of them smashing the windows as well. now, san francisco police and fire are still looking into the cause and trying to track down any suspects. luckily, waymo says there was not a passenger inside the car at the time. that's part of san jose's celebrations today on the first day of the lunar new year. and in san francisco at chinatown's historic portsmouth square, people came out dressed in traditional garb. children received gifts

and enjoyed the famed dragon dancers. city and even state leaders, elected leader, were present for the ceremony, enjoying the culture and visiting the local businesses, which are hoping for prosperity for the dragon and the most auspicious time of the lunar new year. all right, and now we are going to toss it out to darren with more on the nonsuper bowl forecast, right? >> we covered that, we got it into the tease. we do have a lot of things to talk about, so let's get to it. the possibility for patchy fog tomorrow morning, which is different than this morning. so if you're an early riser you had it pretty easy saturday morning. tomorrow morning, look at the reduced visibility here. this gets us into the 8:00 hour. some of the north bay valley, some of those inland east bay valleys as well so. if you're an early morning riser on sunday, plan on giving yourself a little extra time if you're north bay or inland east bay. you might hit patchy

fog tomorrow. no dense fog advisory, so that's good, but you never know. they may have to issue one of those at like 2:00 in the morning the way things might go, so. it's also going to be kind of cold tomorrow morning but not as cold as this morning was. we'll stay mainly low 40 s. a lot of upper 30s this morning. and daytime highs tomorrow will be a little bit cooler than today but not much. the weekend is fantastic. if you liked today, tomorrow's almost identical. maybe a few more high clouds, and that's about it. there is growing confidence in above average rain coming back as we get towards next week. so let's go to the forecast map, show you why there is even more so now growing confidence. both of the long range models are picking up on a fairly active storm track coming back to california starting saturday. but there's going to be a system that comes in before that. so from now through wednesday, nothing doing. you've got it made, clear out the gutters and enjoy the sunshine and temperatures around 60. by wednesday night we've got a little cutoff low. there's not a lot to this

first one. sitting right off the coast. that one will come onshore. we'll get some rain out of it. and then back here there's one and then another one that will develop behind it. not going to play that one forward because it's too early to watch a system like that and go, oh, it's going to come here at this time and look like that when it does. instead, just the general takeaway, there's two storms getting developed out in the pacific, and the timeframe is from saturday into early next week when they should both come through. we'll get more specifics on timing, but they do look like they'll have a good amount of rain with them at this point, the way they're put together. if you look at the rainfall totals of this first system coming in on thursday and friday we could get 0.25 an inch of rain. when you look at the seven-day forecast and you see we've got rain on here every day starting thursday and going through saturday, those are a couple different systems. this is one system here, not all that impressive. this is another one coming in here focused primarily on saturday and that one is looking interesting. so

heads up, we'll keep you updated as we get closer too it. all right, matt, out to you. all right, thanks, darren. counting down the hours here in vegas. i was going to say days, no, we're hours away from super bowl lviii. but how about those golden state warriors? they gave us one heck of an appetizer tonight. steph curry saves the day once again. w two leading candidates for senate. two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives. adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear.

i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message. i have active psoriatic arthritis. but with skyrizi to treat my skin and joints, i'm feeling this moment. along with clearer skin skyrizi helps me move with less joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and fatigue. and is just 4 doses a year after 2 starter doses. serious allergic reactions and an increased risk of infections or a lower ability to fight them may occur. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, had a vaccine, or plan to. there's nothing like clearer skin and better movement-and that means everything!

ask your doctor about skyrizi today. learn how abbvie could help you save. we're here live at the westgate sportsbook in las vegas counting down the hours until super bowl lviii when the chiefs and the niners take each other on. but back in the bay

area everybody is rooting for a niners win, and that includes warriors head coach steve kerr. >> do you have a super bowl prediction? >> right here. go niners. >> love the jacket. warriors back home after a five-game road trip hosting the suns. first game between draymond green and nurkic since the suspension . you know draymond's not backing down. returns the favor on nurkic on the other end. the game went down to the wire. third quarter, steph curry crosses up kevin derant, knocks down the step back three. warriors up two. good ball movement here from the dubs. ball gets back to draymond, and he goes right by nurkic for the left-handed lay-up that. one would put the warriors up. draymond hyped up by that one. three seconds left, but steph curry spoils the comeback, knocks down the

deep three off the risky inbounds pass. steph saves the day once again. the dubs win it 113-112 and with a record of 25-25, yeah, you guessed it, the warriors are finally back to .500 for the first time this year. we're in vegas. why are we in vegas? well, the super bowl is going down tomorrow. quarterback mooney ward, he was on the winning side of super bowl liv back when he played the chiefs. he's going to try to beat his former team tomorrow and get his second super bowl ring. on the chiefs, well, they've got a bunch of stars. it starts with patrick mahomes, the biggest star of them all. travis kelce, his popularity has soared since dating taylor swift. and then there's andy reid. man, this guy has gotten pretty popular in the last few years, and he's starred in a couple commercials with patrick mahomes. >> i don't want to stand up here and sound like a movie star, because i'm -- that's -- i'm not very good at that.

but i appreciate people enjoying nuggies. >> explain it again, those nuggies. >> i didn't think that was his thing. either patrick mahomes convince thoimd do it or the money was really, really good. i would have thought he would have been in a cheeseburger commercial. he do good in the commercial. i'm not surprised. >> who do you think would be a better commercial actor, him or kyle? >> if it was a commercial about a library commercial about being quiet in the library, u think coach shanahan would be better at that. it depends on what the role is, man. >> i can't wait for the santa clara public library commercial starring kyle shanahan. all right, i'm in a sportsbook, so of course, we've got to talk some prop bets. still ahead in sports, we're breaking it all down. and i'm going to tell you why a 49ers bet is being backed by all the sharps.

this ad? typical. politicians... "he's bad. i'm good." blah, blah. let's shake things up. with katie porter. porter refuses corporate pac money. and leads the fight to ban congressional stock trading. katie porter. taking on big banks to make housing more affordable. and drug company ceos to stop their price gouging. most politicians just fight each other. while katie porter fights for you. for senate - democrat katie porter. i'm katie porter and i approve this message.

i'm live here at westgate sportsbook. it's one of the most famous books in all of vegas, and they've been keeping track of what the live line is on super bowl lviii. and we can look at the big board right now. right now westgate has the niners as two-point favorites on sunday, and it's funny, because the chiefs are the reigning super bowl champs. but the big money seems to be coming in on the niner, which should make you very confident if that's the bet you've placed. >> the big money is on san francisco, and some of that came from respected bettors so. we respect that money a little bit more than an accumulation of the general public money. >> westgate sportsbook vice president jay has been working in the sports gambling world since 1987. he said the chiefs have been a tough team for sportsbooks to read this year. >> we thought they were going to snap out of it any time, but it didn't really happen until the playoffs. >> you got to fight for your

right to party. >> so how did they set a line on the team they expect to be on that podium after the game? and why is kyle shanahan's team the favorite? >> we had san francisco as the top-rated team pretty much throughout the entire season and going into the playoffs. despite their defensive struggles, we still have them ranked number one. >> reporter: you don't have to bet on the spread or the total in the super bowl, props are incredibly popular, from who will win the game's mvp. >> ma homes is the favorite with purdy right behind him. >> reporter: -- to which side of the coin will win out at kick-off. >> it's electric, the atmosphere is just overwhelming. and then as soon as they get the captains in the middle of the field it becomes very quiet. and then as soon as they flip that coin half the room groans, the other half cheers. >> reporter: he says it creates such a great atmosphere that it almost beats being at the game. >> we definitely feel a spike of electricity. it feels like

there's a prize heavyweight fight about ready to happen. there's been an extra buzz around town and we expect that to continue all the way through monday. >> reporter: i love super bowl commercials, but i also love super bowl prop bet, and one of my favorite is which color gatorade will be dumped on the winning coach. kyle shanahan said that his favorite color is orange. maybe that's where you place your money. i went all around vegas. i wanted to see who would give me a hundred bucks, and what would they place their bet on. if there's a gatorade bath on sunday for the niner, what color would it be? >> red. >> red. >> why's that? >> niners. >> which color would you want? >> red. >> why's that? >> niner fan, niner colors. >> what color do you think the gatorade bath will be? >> red. >> why's that? >> because it's kansas city. >> what if i told you it was purple last year when they won. >> that's right, it was, wasn't it. >> oh no, it'll be red. >> reporter: how much would you bet on red? >> i'm going to say i'll bet

a hundred bucks. >> reporter: all right, let's see it. you give me your money right now. >> i'm not going to give you my money. >> reporter: no? i figured it was an easy way to make an extra hundred bucks. he was too smart for that ploy. andrea, what do you think the winning gatorade color will be? >> oh gosh. i'll go with orange, right? isn't that kyle's favorite? >> reporter: kyle said that's his favorite, but he did say -- he doesn't drink gatorade on game day. >> okay. >> reporter: i think it's going to come down to what nick bosa or brock purdy's favorite color is. >> if they win, i don't care what color the gatorade is. >> reporter: that's right, who cares? >> what do you think it's going to be? >> i'm on record saying clear. >> that's right. clear, clear. >> reporter: yeah. we'll have

two leading candidates for senate. two very different visions for california. steve garvey, the leading republican, is too conservative for california. he voted for trump twice and supported republicans for years, including far right conservatives.

adam schiff, the leading democrat, defended democracy against trump and the insurrectionists. he helped build affordable housing, lower drug costs, and bring good jobs back home. the choice is clear. i'm adam schiff, and i approve this message.

growing up, my parents wanted me to become a doctor or an engineer. those are good careers! but i chose a different path. first, as mayor and then in the legislature. i enshrined abortion rights in our california constitution. in the face of trump, i strengthened hate crime laws and lowered the costs for the middle class. now i'm running to bring the fight to congress. you were always stubborn. and on that note, i'm evan low, and i approve this message. did you know you waste 200 hours a year handwashing dishes? switch to your dishwasher and cascade platinum plus. all you have to do is scrape, load, and you're done! cascade platinum plus. dare to dish differently.

all right, darren, i don't know if our viewers know this, but kpix cbs news bay area is the only place to watch the 49ers take on the chiefs tomorrow in super bowl lviii. our coverage starts right here at 3:00. the game kicks off at 3:30. and you can also catch all of th streaming
