It took me a few hours to get home from that God-forsaken land dump stadium in Buffalo. After some cooling off time, I'm still steamed and appalled at the way Buffalo fans acted. I've never seen anything like it..ever. I've been to NFL & NCAA games in lots of states in this country; playoff games, BCS games, National Championship's; 4 day Metal festivals, raves, hockey games..you get the point.
Buffalo fans all around me were literally cursing "where is your f**** Tebow now kid"...to a 10 year old kid. They did this over and over. For the whole day.
Some guy in the bathroom walked right up to this guy in a Bronco jersey, got right in his face & started screaming at him, trying to start a fight.
Some guy tapped this little boy on the shoulders and told him that he just got a call from Elway and that these players suck so bad he could probably make the team. The kid was maybe 6 years old.
Big fat guy in front of a kid wearing a Bronco jersey said he would not sit down because he had been there for 22 years and he would fight if he had a problem with it.
Fans chanting F Tebow / F Jesus...all around little kids.
I could go on..but I'm too pissed.
The behavior would not bother me as much if there were not so many pre-teen kids around, lots of father's with their young sons, happy to be at a game rooting for their favorite player on Christmas eve...only to be cursed at by this collective group of trash people.
The moral of the story? If you EVER have the chance to support that team, or their stadium, or their economy...remember this. Disgusting.
As for the team - they all sucked today. I was sitting at close to field level and you could hear Buffalo's players taking the fight to them. They were crisper, faster, smarter at all 3 phases. Denver looked collectively miserable as a team as soon as the game started.
I've got some incredible photos my old lady took, I'll post after Christmas.
