Speaking Of The Broncos Game..

One of the few awesome moments from last Saturday's game took place before kickoff.  G and I were selected to assist in the pregame flag ceremony.  We were on the 25 yard line when Peyton was introduced, the National Anthem was sung and the jets flew overhead.  We walked in single file past the Ravens on their sideline and, most importantly, had the honor of carrying our American flag.  

Awesome.

We had to power down our cells when we went into the tunnels and through the bowels of the stadium so the few pictures I do have are basically bundled, freezing fans walking in a line.  

Stuff of Note:

1. According to G, Flacco (who stood mere feet from us while practicing) is really skinny (all I saw was SUPER tall but that's just me).
2. From our on field vantage point, there is no rush like 76K fans losing their minds.
3. It could've been colder and we wouldn't of noticed or cared.
4. Most of the Ravens are crazy-puny (okay, that's totally not true.. I'm still bitter).
5. Up close, Jim John Harbough is very unattractive (again, false.. but I thought Dusty needed to hear that .. you're welcome, Joey)
6. Ray Lewis was crying like a baby prior to kickoff (TRUE).

This is the tunnel we entered the field from:

Also from these seats we had several heart attacks, swore, suffered frostbite, screamed, clapped, high 5'd and stomped our feet like maniacs ..

For SIX QUARTERS

At the end of the day, they're still our beloved team and we'll be back next year to cheer them to more victories.

In the meantime, I'm glad I stopped smack talking Leigh Anne Tuohy on Twitter...
