My family and I took our first trip to Invesco Field at Mile High for the Mile High Fan Fair this weekend.  I thought in the spirit of Colorado Kitten's recent post about Invesco Field I'd share with all you brothers and sisters my experience.

We arrived a smidge past when they opened the doors and as such we were welecomed by long lines and lots of orange and blue.  The stadium is very impressive.

I wouldn't buy a $4.75 hot dog there or anything, but it isn't like you'll get a fair price any where else though!

So to give fair warning to those of you who are more Xs and Os, I didn't do anything in the way of the Q and A they have.  There are multiple sessions throughout the day where the players and coaches take questions from fans though (Brian Dawkins and Coach Nolan were two notables that I would have loved to hear from).  I had the family in tow so we focused on getting a few Autographs (if you want these plan on showing up early as the line I went through took over 2 hours to get through) and some pics.

I'm going to skip the pics of the line...but it isn't like you are totally without entertainment.  The lines all go through the stadium and you can watch any of the following to keep yourself amused:

Kids playing the on-field games.  They have time later in the evening for adults, but meanwhile just the kids and Broncos staff get out and have some fun.

Also they put quite a few things up on the Jumbotron.  Here's a chat they had with Darius Walker and Champ Bailey (below the big screen and to the left is the picture area where they are actually standing):

The Beast had a quick interview with a kid too.  The funnies part was when Brandon commented something to the effect of, "What's up with the Cutler jersey?  We gotta get you in a number 15 shirt man...I'll let it slide this time..."

I also got to watch Daniel Graham throw to a bunch of kids on the field as well:

We were really stoked when we finally got to get some signatures.  We got the following:

Carlton Powell (really think this guy will be a pleasant surprise this training camp)

Mathhias Askew (team site says he is 300lbs...if he is his legs must be friggin huge cause I don't see it at all.  I know muscle is heaver than fat, but by looking he can't be much bigger than me  :P )

Then we had Lamont Jordan.  I really think he'll be another pleasant surprise.  I've always appreciated his game even when he was a Raider.  The guy is a bowling ball.

As a side note, on the table he had his phone which my wife wanted  a picture of just to see what kind of phone he used.  I noticed when looking the dude was sporting crocs.  Now I'm not gonna say it to his face for fear of being beaten unconscious, but dude!! Really!?  Crocs!?  ...at least he wasn't wearing business casual with them...

On the way out we got a pic of our favorite "new" wide receiver named Eddie:

Later in the day we saw Daniel Graham at his foundation's booth.  He was kind enough to get a picture with me and our youngest (how can you say no to a photo with a cute toddler!?...lame I know...but it worked)

Of course to finish the day off I had to go see our trophies.  It was awesome to see them...I know they are just hunks of metal, but for a long-time fan it is good to see the fruits of our labor first hand.  We suffered some crushing loses in the Super Bowl...good to see the promised land and rememeber how great it felt that when Mobley knocked down that 4th down pass!

My family and I are very thankful they do this for the fans.  Everyone on the team is supposedly there at some point during the day.  Thanks Broncos for the opportunity to meet you and revel in the heart of Bronco Country!

13 - 3 BABY!!!
