The pregame scene at Levi’s Stadium on Saturday was a veritable gathering of the GOATs. It’s not often that Hall of Fame wide receiver Jerry Rice has competition for the title of greatest of all time at a San Francisco 49ers game, but at the NFC divisional-round playoff game, they would be hosting the Green Bay Packers. Which means the biggest star in the stadium is also one of the biggest stars on the planet.
