The last time a game was blacked out was the second game of the 1991 season against the New Orleans Saints. I was actually at the game which we lost 17-10(Deberg threw a pick inside the red zone at the end of the game and Derrick Thomas had a TD called back because of a delay of game penalty on New Orleans). The first 2 games of the '91 season were blacked out. We were only a few hundred tickets short of a sellout for the opener against Atlanta and the Saints game, but back then Price Chopper or some other local company didn't step forward and buy up the extra tickets.
