Wow! 75,000 people watching football, what an atmosphere. Marta, the principal of the elementary school, invited us to go to a Broncos game. WE HAD NO IDEA. Wow! the only way to get tickets for this game is to be a season ticket holder. Marta's family have been ticket holders since 1967.... do you get the idea!
So we drive over the mountains (Yep snow weehoo!) Stop at Collegiate Peaks for a cuppa brewed on our little stove (How weird is that thinks Marta!) and then onto Denver. Tailgated for dinner! Fabuloso and then into the game.
Now those who know me will not be suprised to know that I could never see where the ball was! Like i kindof know that if someone is tackling someone they have the ball BUT NO they all just tackle all the time!!! Great fun even if I was totally confused. AND YES it was one of those games where in the last minute our team pulled out all the stops and WON.. How good is that. Thanks Marta... fabulous experience.,. Hey I even enjoyed getting up at 4.00am the next morning to drive back over the mist covered mountains. Memory of a lifetime.
