CYA at the afternoon practice on Friday, 27 July. Woot!
Anyone in Colorado Springs is welcome to come along. Double woot!
I usually don't hit up training camp, but I am going with my boys, my dad and my brother in law.....too much testosterone. :laugh: I will be hitting up the scrimmage of course. My brother in law is a Colts fan, so he is going for the Peyton Manning sighting. BUT....I think by the end of this season he will be a converted Bronco fan!:D
I am thinking about going to 1 or 2 this year. I have never been to one before nor have I gone to a game. 2 + hour drive 1 way for me.
Is the scrimmage at Mile high free as well?

The scrimmage is free. Just check the web sites about the practices, ours and the Main Bronco one. Every year they seem to close one up to the public or just have meetings. Carol has been great about hearing this and posting it on our site.
Also remember that seating is limited, esp with the first few you might want to get there early if you can.
A few guys from work and I are planning on rolling down for one. One of the co workers is getting all nerdy about us going down in his rv and doing a tailgate thing...
Has anyone gone to the scrimmage at the stadium? is that better than the practices or worse because your in the seats and viewing not as good then?

I'll be going to a training camp practice and to the scrimmage. I don't think I've been this excited to see a training camp practice since 97.
I want to come down there for a practice or a game or something.

Its better and worse rick.
Its better because at dove valley, there is less parking and no beverages. Also there are two fields a close one and an away fieild it is hard to see the action on the away field. At invesco there is no away field so it makes it easier in that regard.
But I like it better at dove. You are literally 3ft from the sidelines and can really see the players and hear them and everything else. I have another employee that I hired, which means I should be able to get to a lot more TCs this summer. P- I know where you will be, I will keep in touch and let you know which ones I plan to go to.

You bet. I'm not going to CA for the show I kept going back and forth on. Just did not want to miss anything this camp.
Have been in Tahoe this week, I am already sun burn, could be a interesting time....

Yes....summer has gone by too damn fast. I received my "subscribe again" email from the NFL.com for the preseason games. Kids start school Aug 22....my boys have a football camp next week then followed by 2-days the following week and baseball is still ongoing.
Only thing that sucks is I start the 8:00pm-6:30am shift on Aug 20....not looking forward to that. But I'm looking forward to some BRONCOS football.
About how early do you have to get there?

Great question. Some friends & I are going on July 28th & I haven't ever been to TC at Dove Valley, only in Greeley when I was a kid. Not sure how early I need to be there to get a decent view of things..

Last year my son and I got there about an hour before practice. Regardless of when you get there, you'll get a good view of it, but we went early to get a rare shady spot. There are only a few places to sit and have shade. Keep in mind that Manning wasn't here last year either.

I once sat behind a guy at a Nebraska game that spent 20 minutes on the phone during the game, and he had two descriptions of where he was: "I'm in section ____ and I'm wearing a red hat."
