San Francisco said goodbye Thursday to Candlestick Park — the stadium where the city's beloved Giants and 49ers celebrated some of their greatest triumphs. The storied venue shut down after an evening concert by former Beatle Paul McCartney that finished about midnight. McCartney was a fitting final act, having played the venue for The Beatles final live concert in 1966. Scroll down for video Paul McCartney performs on Thursday, at Candlestick Park in San Francisco as locals say goodbye to the legendary stadium McCartney previously played the venue when the Beatles held their final concert on Aug. 29, 1966, at Candlestick Park
