Upgraded my seats last year to club level. And to my surprise I was on the CSU side of the field. Really nice to spend the extra money and have to sit on the opposing teams side of the field.
The event sucks. The DPD shows up like they're preparing for WWIII. Full riot gear, horses, helmets, nightsticks, mace - all of it. And they look for trouble, too. They go from car to car harassing people. Checking ID's, generally being assholes to everybody. It's obvious that they view the game as a nuissance. Then you get the gate personnel and stadium employees who act as though they're doing you a favor by being there. Every year I go there, I leave asking myself "why did I put myself through that again?" I don't need to put up with that kind of abuse. I think I'm still going to avoid the game this year. Hopefully, enough people will do the same and Bohn will get the message that this game needs to be done in Denver.
I'll walk over to watch the Buffs kick the holy piss out of the Rams.
Leach: Do you want to fight a buffalo? I don't know, those buffalo are big. You know, buffalo are significantly bigger than elk. I grew up near Yellowstone so I've been near buffalo. Buffalo are huge. And then the other thing I've always gotten a kick out of: When you play Colorado, there's those buffalo dragging those six handler around. Those handlers aren't dragging the buffalo. The buffalo's dragging him.
I agree with Sacky. The game blows at Invesco. It was ok a decade ago when the teams were good and the place was packed a rowdy. Blows chunks now.

The "Lightning Bolt Game" was awesome. If the teams are competitive, csu was ranked for that game, and its at night and sold out, it's a blast. However, last seasons game was just awful.
