Let’s start talking about some other cities (looking at you, Boston).

Get a room, but not right by the stadium.
Do NOT wear your Niners gear unless you are ok with getting harassed.
Do NOT try to defend your team in the stadium, or do anything over-the-top if they score/get an interception; etc.
You would take Amtrak to 30th street and then the Broad Street line to Broad and Pattison. The train will be packed, and you get out about a city block away from the stadium.
There is also a Villanova/Providence game going on at the Wells Fargo Center, so folks are buying tickets to start tailgating early.
Don’t go to Xfinity Live unless you are super into frat bros. The casino is also sketchy. Do you have friends you can tailgate with? People tend to have preferred spots where they always tailgate. I would take an Uber to the hotel; I wouldn’t trust Septa if I could help it.
If you drive up, I’d suggest the NovaCare lot, which is the Eagles training facility. That gives you a bit of distance from the heaviest tailgates while still being close to the stadium.
Do NOT wear Niners gear on the train. Do NOT let the hotel know you are a Niners fan. Do NOT let ANYONE know you are a Niners fan. There’s been a rise in college folks just going to tailgate (compared to season ticket holders). You would find them closer to Xfinity Live.
Happy to answer any other questions you may have - I have no problem with the Niners, and would be cheering for you all if you weren’t facing the Eagles.
You won’t get the hate that a Cowboys fan would, but it’s still an NFC Championship. This is not a place for children.

If you look up The Yards NYE, I think they do something at noon.

Why do people not give each other a wave after being let in? This drives me crazy. We live in a society!

As long as you’re not a Dallas fan, or super obnoxious, you may get some booing but should be good.
