Broncos vs. Raiders: I wish I had been there
Posted by Richard on January 19, 2014
Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice watching a great football game at home on the big screen via a Dish DVR. Skipping past the timeouts, skipping back to watch a great play a second time, pausing the game for a bathroom break — it’s pretty nice.
But today of all days, I wish I’d been there in Sports Authority Stadium at Mile High Field. I wish I could have dropped a couple of grand for that playoff ticket. Today was special. What a perfect day to attend a great football game — 65° and sunny, hardly a cloud in the sky, and practically no wind. What a great crowd — I heard longtime season ticket holders say it was the loudest ever since the old Mile High Stadium. What a great team performance in all aspects of the game — it was not nearly as close as the score (26-16 Denver) would indicate.
This was probably the best Broncos game to attend in person since John Elway retired. I wish I had been there.
