[ music ] >> usa today invited people to choose their favorite super bowl ad, and for the second consecutive year, anheuser- busch earned top honor, featuring a spot of a puppy who keeps escaping to visit his

friend, a clydesdale horse. they may be cute and provocative, but for tall hype do super bowl ads really work? a tucson research firm says no, but others say 80% of the super bowl ads don't increase sales. the firm reached its conclusion by interviewing 1,000 consumers before and after they were exposed tolt ads in the 2012-13 super bowl broadcast. ktvu.com has an extensive super bowl section including many of this year's commercials. look for the link on the front page. now to tonight's special report. when the super bowl comes to the bay area in two years hopefully we are going to see a closer game than what we saw today. the 49ers new stadium in santa clara is about 80% complete. the other day i got a chance to tour the stadium. it has some very interesting

features. the first thing you notice when you see the stadium is how big it is and how open it is. and there are workers everywhere. a crew of 900 people racing against the clock to get it done. project engineer jack hill gave us our tour, and it came right after he had just finished taking 49ers coaches on a similar tour. >> we had 12 of the coaches and assistants. they hadn't seen it for almost a year, and they were just blown he away. >> during the tour we walked under the stadium to the 49ers locker room, and it is huge. when it's done, it will include a dry sauna, a hydro therapy pool, and hot and cold plunges. it will even after barber's chair. then on game day, once the players are dressed, they'll walk down this hallway, and what's cool is that they'll be walking right past hundreds of fans at this hughes pi tal tee area on the right. then right after that, they turn the corner and there's the

field. at the moment it's just a dirt field. the grass is still growing at west coast turf in livingston in the central valley. this is video that they sent us showing the exact field where the grass will come from. it's a special type of bermuda grass, and at some point next month the plan is to cut the field into strips, roll up the glass, arched truck to the santa clara. so right now i'm down on what will be the field of the new 49ers stadium. this will be the end zone. but i want to show you just how close the stands are, just how intimate the field here is at this new stadium. look at this. there are the seats right there. now, there are some other things that fans will like. the average concourse at levi's stadium will be 63 feet wide. at candlestick they're only 19 feet wide. there will also be 30 escalators at levi's stadium compared to only six at candlestick. and 370 concession stands compared to 23-9d at candlestick. levi's stadium also has two

huge hi-def score boards that are 48 feet tall and 200 feet wide. to put in that perspective they're 10 times bigger than the scoreboard at candlestick. you will also notice the unusual configuration. three-quarters of the stadium is pretty much all seats but on the fourth side it's most al tower of just sweets. so right now i'm in the he will vies suite. this is actually a double suite. you can see how big it is. they still have a little work to do before it is complete but look at this. they are right on the 50-yard line. so when you come out here you have a great view of the game. a nearby suite is a little further along, and you can really get an idea of just how nice it is going to be. all of the wood is bamboo, including on the refrigerator, and there are also little features like tile above the sink. one of the things i found most interesting was when we got in an elevator and went all the way up to the roof. right now i'm standing on top

of the new 49ers stadium. this is going to be a green area with a garden. about 500 to 1,000 people will be able to come up here, and there will be glass here. they have got a beautiful view of the stadium. back below ground this is one of the massive kitchens. crews will partially prep the food before take it to the actual serving stations for final preparation. this is one of many giant freezers just for beer. a lot of beer. in fact, there are four of these freezers on this level alone. >> we want the beer to be cold and the fans to have a fresh beer. >> gotta have that fresh beer. >> gotta be cold, too. so not only beautiful but seems like the new stadium is going to have a lot of high-tech gadgets. >> it is going to be incredibly high-tech. they haven't announced it as yet but some of the things you may be able to do, use your phone for your ticket, use your phone to order food from your see. even use your phone to watch replays. let's just say it's going to be

a completely different experience compared to candlestick. for fans it's also going to be moch more expensive experience. >> i can't wait until it's going to be done. >> it's going to be absolutely beautiful. >> thank you. candles burn tonight in the north bay for a little girl killed just shy of her fourth birthday. why there's shock over who is in jail. plus, water wasted during the drought. see why police are looking for the person responsible for this gusher in the east bay.
