Sad day! I spent every game there for our SB run and half the year prior.  We had some of the most rowdy and ridiculous crowds there.  Remember some were probably 150 of us strong.  Insane support for the team in another city. 

I think some huddlers here had ventured before.

Thao never knew Sax was in the crowd with his crew.  Thus thao therein, trinkets.

Love,

"Sad" Sax

Lived in CO for 14 years and never made it down there. Then again, I pretty much avoided Denver like the plague.

I recently spent some time in Denver. Buddy moved from a nice condo in Fort Collins to a shithole near the capitol. No idea why.. I spent half my visit moving my car looking for parking with everyone else. Denver is a dump.

My brother was a regular there during football season as as well. He was quite disappointed when the news came out.

Truth. Sadly, it didn't used to be. When I first moved to CO, it was really clean and well kept for a major city. It went to hell in a hand basket over the last decade.

Your buddy screwed up. Fort Collins is easily my favorite of the larger Front Range cities.

I hear you about Denver. Overcrowded and honestly just hectic and that's saying something having lived in Orange County (Laguna) and now Chicago.  Love me Chi-town. 

Summit County, Boulder or Ft Collins are the way to go.  Headed to Crested Butte in Feb for a getaway.

Honestly, the entire Front Range and Summit/Eagle Counties are all terribly overcrowded. We'll love to either the western slope or Montana next summer. I'm just glad we got our house sold prior to the Front Range mountains burning to the ground. We sold our house in Evergreen in June.

Probably a good move on your part.  I haven't been in a few years but I felt like a sardine 2013-16.  Can't imagine what it's like today.

Gunnison County will be next.

Maybe I go north north and buy a spot near Banff/Calgary haha

It's grown a lot but I think it's remoteness from a metro area and brutally cold winters will keep it somewhat protected.

Ridgway is my #1 choice if we end up back in CO.

I liked FC. So much easier to get around and more laid back.

Well that's a shame. Always kept saying I would make it down there and kept pushing it off. I live in NoCo and do my best to avoid Denver as much as possible. There's some gems there, but definitely not a desirable place to be anymore.

I had a summer job lined up in Rocky Mountains, but sadly due to covid it fell through. I planned to visit Denver.
