First Home Game of the 2007 Broncos Season

September 16, 20075 photos

Go Broncos! Thanks to the best brother-in-law ever, Tyler, we (Tyler, Jon, Nick and Alex) got to go to the first home game of the Broncos season. But not just any game; Broncos vs. Raiders, a long time rivalry. And even better, we had club level seats. This means private floor with our own food and bars and even a waitress while we watched the game...face value, $289 each.

Our seats at the club level...$300/each!!!

And it was a killer game. Broncos had a 20 to 3 lead at the half, but thanks to some turnovers and chokes, Raiders caught up 20-20 by the end of the game...overtime. Looks like it was all over for the Broncos when the Raiders kicked a perfect 52 yard field goal in sudden death overtime...but no! The Broncos sideline had actually called timeout before the kick, so it didn’t count. And of course, the second attempt went off the TOP of the left goal post...insane. Broncos took the ball and drove it down for a simple chip shot field goal to win the game! It. Was. Awesome!!!
