The San Francisco 49ers appear to have gone ahead with a lavish Gatsby-themed party the same day that rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall was shot in Union Square.
Photos on social media show the team in flapper-style dress on Saturday night. NBC Sports Bay Area journalist Matt Maiocco reported the party was the Niners’ “traditional party to celebrate the 53-man roster and the end of training camp.” It was held at head coach Kyle Shanahan’s home, he said. Along with teammates and their significant others, the party was attended by rapper Rick Ross, who posted both videos and photos on his Instagram stories.
