About The Curse of Aaron Rodgers

The Curse of Aaron Rodgers (also known as The 49er Aaron Rodgers Curse) is a superstition that will prevent the San Francisco Forty Niners football team from winning the Super Bowl until after Green Bay Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers reaches the Hall of Fame.

The story: The Aaron Rodgers Curse Begins!

April 23, 2005 - The 49ers make Alex Smith – Utah the number one overall pick instead of Aaron Rodgers in 2005 NFL draft. Aaron Rodgers - California is from Northern California, He attended and played football in northern California schools. Pleasant Valley High in Chico, CA, Butte College in Oroville, CA and finally University of California in Berkeley, CA. He was a spoken loyal longtime fan of the 49ers. Aaron Rodgers waited in green room for four and a half hours with cameras pointing at him during and after every pick until the Green Bay Packers finally selected him with 24-overall pick. The 49er snub who were supposed to take Rodgers caused a slide that Alex Smith wouldn’t have experienced. After hearing so much about The Curse of the Bambino a few months back. An enrolled student and football fan at the University of California during that time, who witnessed Aaron Rodgers falling one receiver short (Chase Lyman) and less than 10 yards at the LA Memorial Coliseum from taking the Golden Bears to a Collegiate National Championship. Such enrolled student was so offended that he cursed the 49ers by saying the 49ers shall not win a Super Bowl until after Aaron Rodgers is elected into the Hall of Fame.
