Pee Wee Football

My sister Debbie and I went to the Broncos/Chargers game yesterday. This was my very first NFL game - yeah! Yes, it was very exciting to finally go to a game, but the game itself was awful. I think the Broncos Pee Wee league showed up to play because the Chargers destroyed the Broncos. Jay Cutler, our QB, is apparently color blind because he kept throwing the ball to the guys in the white jerseys instead of the blue ones; and our receivers legs weren't working because if the ball wasn't thrown to exactly where they were standing, they were not going after it. It was a total embarrassment. The worst home game since 1996.

On a few happier notes, the rain and wind came down at the start of the 3rd quarter - perfect football weather. 5 minutes into the 3rd quarter and after Cutler threw his millionth interception, the fans decided to leave. Once they left, I saw that the seats at one end of the stadium were colored to make up an image of a bronco - very cool!


We got to sit near the three amigos. Yes, they are in full gear with pads and all. I think the gal who is wrapped in the blanket is their designated driver, well we hoped she was.


And our seats were great - at the tree line level. In other words, if it was snowing on us, it would have been raining on the field. Here's a view of the field from our seats.


All in all, it was an awesome time and hopefully Debbie will take me again!
