First game at Invesco!

by Bronco Billy on Sep 17, 2008 8:40 PM MDT

After years of travelling the road to see our beloved Broncos, my wife and I finally made it to Invesco. Couldn't ask for a better game - except that I'm more of a defensive guy and cringe at the thought of giving up 38 points, but that's another story.

In my two home games, I've seen Elway's 300th TD pass, TD's 2000th yard in a season, Cutler throw for 350 and 4 TDs, Marshall grab 18 receptions, and Shanahan showing the NFL who has "los cajones más grandes de el NFL".

Trying to remain unbiased, Invesco is one of the greatest venues in the NFL. The only stadiums that I've been to that compare is Lambeau Field in terms of fans. Although Arizona and Cincinnati have very nice stadiums. I've heard Heinz Field is a great venue as well, but haven't been there personally yet.

Hats off to Jeremy Bates' play-calling (and to Shanny for handing over the reins to him). It's hard to argue with 40 pts / game! ... just my $0.02.

nice choice

that must have been insane at the stadium. what a rollercoaster. what a finish. i’m with you, the 38 points is painful to watch. i would rather win 10-9. judging by the # of posts here about defensive issues, we all don’t seem to like it. i think it shows the intelligence of the people on this site that we are downright angry after being 2-0, coming off a huge, thrilling win. people see the big picture here, while elsewhere, teams would be happy to just be 2-0. keep your hat on, it’s going to be a wild ride this season

hear me, perpetrators of bread crime, your punishment is at hand.
taste my blintzkrieg!

We need to find a way to get you to every game.

The two games I’ve been too were Broncos 31-16 over the Chargers and Broncos 41-14 over the Raiders. I’ll bring good juju to away games, you will bring good juju to home games. Let’s make it happen people! :)

I was thinking the same thing...

The lucky charm. You boys need to get to more games. I went to a few games when I was a Kid. But I haven’t been for about 15 or so years. I will be singing in the south stands this year at the next raiders game. 11 hour drive with my brothers and Dad and Bro-in-Laws will be worth it.

If the chargers continue to lose

I’ll have a better chance of being able to afford tickets to the Dec 28th game at the Q after all their “fans” start dumping their tickets!

Although the last two years I’ve gone haven’t gone our way, this is a different team and we’ll sweep them!
