Been to several games there, and it was baffling why it's set up that way. At least their rail system helps a lot.

Even the Light Rail station is about a mile walk from the stadium. I take the Bronco bus when I go to games and it's basically a bus that goes from outskirt park and ride directly to the stadium. When the game is over you get on the bus for your park and ride and get to your car and drive home that way. It also gives you a little more time to sober up if you need that kind of thing

Die in a fire, Gabbert. 4321

To be fair, that dome was abysmal. The one in Vegas was amazing. Those are the only two domed stadiums I've been in.

They'll have spy robot birds like box frame Walmart stores. Only these birds nudge the field goal kicks and moon balls

If you do go to a Broncos game and you're sitting in section 500 you want to be on the east side of the stadium because it stays in the Sun the longest. Which means you'll stay warmer longer

I despise the travel part of going to games to begin with. It's hard for me to get excited when you have to deal with hours of traffic and miles of walking to watch a game that can be viewed in my living room.

Old man syndrome. I don't care.

We don't have hours of traffic and you can park within 50 feet of a gate.

They just got a new stadium a little over 20 years ago, I wouldn't vote for it.

Almost every new stadium should have a Retractable roof unless it's in Socal or something. Best of both worlds. During the nice parts of the year ir can be open and during the shitty snow or miserable summer days ir can be closed. If Arrowhead had one we would have a Super Bowl already.

Question, do you ever go to non-chiefs Bronco games?

I would imagine by the time this new stadium is built and ready for games is 10 years away

The most surprising part of this story: The Broncos still have season ticket holders.

Katipan 03-24-2023 08:19 AM

And 100 million in upgrades this year including a really big new expensive scoreboard screen scrolling marquee of constant info. No one is building a new stadium.

While I don't like freezing my butt off, it is definitely an advantage for our team. I would not want a dome. However, I would have been willing to entertain the rolling roof idea.

As a Chiefs fan it pains me to say it but I preferred the old Pile High Stadium. The old stadium at least had soul.
