It almost felt like dejá vu arriving for the playoffs this year. After what happened last year, and our loss to the Chargers earlier this season there was a little anxiety among us.
We've been spoiled with a parking pass in the Comcast parking lot, just steps away from the stadium, along with a pass to their tailgating party this season.
Comcast throws a mean party. They bring in restaurants from all over Denver and also provide us with beer, wine, and Jägermeister shots. I had my very first shot of Jäger at this tailgate party and it was divine. Jäger where have you been all my life? All I needed was one shot and I was ready for the game.
The wind started picking up even before the game began. Pre-game prep was going on when it was decided that the massive Bronco just wasn't going to make it. These guys were having a hard time holding it up.
These strong military men were even having a hard time with their flags and the goal posts kept leaning.
The game began and the wind was forgotten. . . for awhile.
Our defense came out strong. We were pumped!
Then our receivers began catching air!
Runs were made up the middle, and
touchdowns were scored!!!
Our receivers continued to plow their way through the Chargers' defense.
Mr. Rivers was getting really frustrated and taking it out on the referee.
We kept catching the ball.
The crowd was excited, but we had to be quiet when Manning was calling plays.
It took two of their guys to take down one of our smallest players at 5'9".
Here we go dancing again!
Little Welker is small, but powerful.
Did I mention that it was a little cold? The hot chocolate definitely helped.
Someone thought it would be fun to stick a bungee cord on the net and pull it down during the extra point. The ball ended up in the crowd. Everyone cheered!
Here's Peyton Manning working his magic.
He may have said, "Omaha, Omaha, Omaha" here. I can't remember. The wind was blowing.
The game ended in victory for the Broncos and we fans were pretty excited because last year did not end in a victory for us.
The next game was already set and it was hard to contain our giddiness. 
Leon and Jared attended the championship game. I decided not to go, but I'm glad they went and got to be part of such a fun game! Go Broncos!
