Week 11 (Broncos @ NEW ORLEANS November 21)

[BlueDamsel]

This one should be a blast...Rhogan, Alec? Y'all want to take over from here?

[Meck77]

Hey Alec? Get your ass down here. This is your baby. What was the deal now. We had some pentouse place lined up. Who offered that up?

[Hogan11]

Last I knew about this, Worm was thinking about trying to set something up at his place in the Warehouse District....although I could have that wrong and it has been awhile.....

Best I can tell ya is to research the Saints game thread for verification of that and then PM worm and see what he says, if it's still a go, etc.

Np.....I'm on it. Hey Alec I'm picking your ass up. Don't suppose there are any nice RV lots off of Bourbon street? 8') We need to run a satellite image to see who has a nice yard nearby kinda like Frank's setup at the HOF.... lmao

[Rock Chalk]

Yeah Meck, worm is supposed to hook us up but if not I got a backup plan in place. The dude I got the tickets from has the hookup on the spot. He knows about the bus and the group we have and said there is a spot like 2 blocks away PERFECT for what we want.

Id rather set this up at worm's though since he offered. I think worm hangs out at the freak and I will see about getting in touch with him.

Cool...we'll have to get Worm a bottle of Tequila with a worm in it as a token of appreciation. 8')

[2324070933]

Hi guys, quick question, I am planning to go to this game but was wondering if you had a good source for tickets? The one's that are still available on the Ticketmaster site suck.

Thanks for any help.

[Meck77]

I have sources for home tickets but not away tickets. Only thing that comes off the top of my head is ebay but people probably aren't selling those until the game get's closer. Never know.

[2324070933]

Thanks for the help, i'll give ebay a try

[nooner]

Lisa and I got tickets for this game and will be partying our asses off on Bourbon Street before all weekend. Hope to see you all there!
-Ben

[Rock Chalk]

Keep checking back here ben, and everyone. About a week or two before the game we will have everything worked out on where to meet up so we can all party together.

[flynzebra]

Keep checking back here ben, and everyone. About a week or two before the game we will have everything worked out on where to meet up so we can all party together.

In our second annual, away game trip myself, brother, father, and cousin have aquired tickets to the Broncos @ Saints. We will be in section 155. We plan to drive, and will be leaving at 12:30 P.M. on the 19th. I am in the process of securing a hotel. If anyone knows of safe, decent areas let me know.

We are definitley wanting to hook up with the party at Orange Force One.

Also, we purchased our tickets for $59 a pop on ebay. Do a search on Denver Broncos @ New Orleans Saints. I dealt with a seller name dlhunt1. He has four more tickets that are located right next to ours. Having 8 broncos fans in row would be awesome.

[GSRelyea]

Since I am flying from upsate NY I had to book flight and hotel kind of early in order to get a good price. So I went on priceline.com and got 2 plane tix and 3 nights at the Mariott for $800. I guess the Mariott (downtown) is only 1/2 a mile from the superdome, so it seemed like a good place, plus it is .01 miles from Harrahs casino so that sealed the deal for me. If anyone is familiar w/ the area, let me know if this is a convienent spot to be staying at, and also, I would assume taking cabs is a lot easier than renting a car??? Any help would be appreciated.

[Rock Chalk]

Thats a good spot Greg. They dont build Marriot's in bad neighborhoods dude ;D

I saw worm here the other day but it didnt occur to me to talk to him. Forgot about it. I dont think worm's spot is in the warehouse district, I was under the impression it was right near the Superdome.

Whatever, if Jim(worm) cant swing the party, we do have a second place to meet up. The Bus! I cant wait to see what you've got Meck. Are you good to go on wireless networking? I wanna bring my laptop and you will need a wireless router for me to use the internet!

God damn Im all excited about this :thumbs:

[BlueDamsel]

There is a wireless router for the bus - it wasn't hooked up this weekend, but by the Saints game it should be....

I know that NO isn't so much a tailgating town...but why couldn't we show 'em how it's done anyway? Probably would confuse the heck out of the parking lot attendants ;)

Perhaps someone should contact Joe Cahn (The tailgating commissioner) he's from down there - maybe he or his people could hook us up with some information about what to do now?

[worm]

Whichever way you guys want to go is fine with me.

The rooftop here is waiting for a Bronco's party.....but either way count me in... 1st keg is on me.

This is a great place to stay. It is about 4 blocks from my front door (I live 1 block away from Harrahs casino).

Don't get a car. Everything is walkable once you take a cab or shuttle from the airport.

I can check on this. A spot RIGHT AT the Superdome would be sweet.

It would allow more than just those familar with this site to experience OF1 and the pregame festivities.

[Hogan11]

This is gonna be one rockin' weekend.....

[BlueDamsel]

Thanks Worm...We were worried about you there for a bit, since we hadn't heard from you about anything as of late...

I know that the rooftop party would be fun, but I think that having a spot where most everyone would be able to see things would make it that much better...

A lot of people will be coming to this game that haven't necessarily been able to experience a Broncos home game, so why not treat it like it is one? Have a real Broncos tailgate...

Someone said that they were talking to a saint's fan & they are trying to get people to start tailgating...Perhaps calling up the superdome/parking attendants would be a place to start...make sure that they would have a place for a 40' vehicle to park & tailgate...We have pictures up of the tailgate on orangeforceone.com -- you could show them what the Broncos do for us...We would just need an RV-type spot...

Anyway, just a few ideas! :)

[alberson55]

I will also be making the trip to New Orleans, and will be sitting in sec 155. Nice to know there will be fellow Bronco fans close by. I cannot wait to be a part of the Orange force one party. Looking forward to having a hell of a weekend.

[TailgateNut]

I've been to Nawlins' several times and the tailagting scene is absolutely awful. I guess they feel you can go to the French Qtr prior to the game. The Marriot is only a $4-6 cab ride from the dome.
If you want to contact Joe Cahn, his website is at Tailgating.com, which has parking info!
We usually stay in a bed and breakfast in the Garden district. If you're interested I'll get info for you. It's quieter and the put out an awesome breakfast and afternoon open bar!

[GSRelyea]

If you build a tailgate; they will come. :griese: This sounds like it is going to be a great weekend. First time going to NO so it should be a drunken blurry vacation. Thanks everyone for sharing knowledge on the city, it def helps to talk to people that have been or live there.

[BlueDamsel]

Yeh the only problem with tailgating.com is that they don't respond very quickly to emails -- Meck sent one when he got back from Canton & I sent one a few weeks ago - neither of us have a response!

I do have his mobile # - maybe someone could give him a call?

If you do give him a call, ask Joe why he isn't comin' to Mile High this year. He stopped by the past couple of years, but I don't see us on the schedule.
One thing I would suggest is calling the "folks" at Harrahs to see if they would sponsor a spot in their lot. It's right at the end of Canal street, near the french market. Lots of exposure!!!!! I don't think parking for the "bus" will be avaiable at the stadium, although with connections there may be a possibility.
Have you tried the "aint's" web-site. Maybe you can disguise yourself as an out-of-town aint's fan and buy some passes.
Another possibility would be SMC, I believe it's the same mgt. co. which screws up the parking at Mile High!

[BlueDamsel]

I plugged around on the ain'ts website & the superdome's website - the superdome's website did give me a number, I may just call & see what we can work out.

Even though it's not listed on the schedule, Joe is doing a fly-in to Denver for some special with foodtv...He does have to go around to the other stadiums though too, that's why he's not "coming to Denver" this year...Last year he drove to Denver, flew to Seattle & then flew back for the MNF game against the Raiders...

[Hogan11]

I'm more than cool with whatever is decided upon.

I'm not worried about the Quarter at all....I know I'll be spending more than enough time down there the rest of that weekend.

[Rock Chalk]

Id like to get everyone who is going to this game to PM me with some contact info for the weekend's activities.

Cell phones, screen names on yahoo or MSN or AIM messengers, anything so that I can contact you once in New Orleans. If we have some way of getting a hold of everyone we can plan this out better and make sure everyone knows where to go.

Also, is the Orange Force One crew going to be in New Orleans on Saturday? Cause I had this idea that if we are all going to be spending the weekend there, then we can meet up at worms on Saturday, have our party with the keg there and figure out the tailgating business for Sunday from his house. The rooftop thing sounds like a great idea to just toss away, though I cant see not partying on the Bus since Meck went through the trouble of hooking the bad boy up. If at all possible, I would like to make both things happen. I cant see going there for a single day...its New Orleans for God's sakes! I imagine most will be there for the weekend.

[flair]

I will be there in Sec 121

Sounds like a plan Alec. I'm up for anything. The rooftop party sounds ideal. Who says we can't do a little of both. Besides I though I was picking you up in Texas?

[flynzebra]

I have four tickets for sale to the Nov. 21 game in New Orleans. I had to go back and purchase 5 tickets because a 5th friend wanted go, so now I have 4 I cannot use.

The tickets are in section 155 row 24 and of course they are together. I purchased them off of ebay for 59 each. That is what I would like to sell them for. Here is the orginal listing. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...item=2266729546

If i dont sell them here i will try on ebay. Let me know, and if someone from here purchases them I hope to see you at the game. Instant Message me on Yahoo. My id is flynzebra.

Thanks

[GSRelyea]

I actually have 2 seats in sec 110 row 24, but now need 2 more so maybe if someone is just looking for 2 tickets, we can work something out.

[Meck77]

Hmm I bought three seats for that game also and if memory serves me right I think I'm somewhere right around section 155 also. I'll have to check it out.

[GSRelyea]

I am in the process of buying the 4 tix from Flynzebra, I originally had 2 tickets together in Sec. 110 row 24, but needed 2 more because who wouldn't want to go to a bronco game in New Orleans..... So if anyone needs 2 tickets to that game let me know, I paid $69 for them and will sell them for the same amount. The seats are right around the 10 yd line and obviously pretty close to the field. You can PM me through the mane or email me at GSRelyea@aol.com.

[Meck77]

I doubled checked my tickets and I'm in section 122. Looks like we'll be representing on all sides of the lower level!!!!

[Sassy]

Maybe :devil: ;D Let me check on a few things first.

[Sassy]

Ok...Count the Sasster in...Melissa are you going down for the game? At least the tailgate part???

[Rock Chalk]

Sounds like a plan Alec. I'm up for anything. The rooftop party sounds ideal. Who says we can't do a little of both. Besides I though I was picking you up in Texas?

You are picking me up or Im not going to be able to go.

[Meck77]

You are picking me up or Im not going to be able to go.


I'll pick your Texan arse :) up like I agreed to besides you are one who started the discussion about a party in NO.

Here is the question though. How much time can you take off? According to mapquest the drive to NO is about 20 some hours from Denver and I'd like to be in NO atleast 1 full day before the game which means if we left sometime on Thursday then we would pick you up sometime Friday morning about be in NO later that day?

How long is the drive from your house to NO?

[Sassy]

Hey Meck...keep us updated on where you're going to be....not like we shouldn't be able to find a big ORANGE bus though! Ha! How does it look?

[flair]

I doubled checked my tickets and I'm in section 122. Looks like we'll be representing on all sides of the lower level!!!!

Hope to see you there Meck I will be row 33 in sec 121

[Meck77]

I'll see you there for sure Flair. Well I haven't seen OF1 since I droppped her off. :( I'm going to go to the shop tomorrow and see how she is doing. I'll let you know!

[Sassy]

Hey Tred...I didn't know you were going to New Orleans...must have missed that info somewhere! Awesome! Booya!

[BlueDamsel]

For those of you still looking for tickets...if anyone...
I just got a mailer from the Saints/Broncos...
It says "A special discounted ticket offer for Broncos Season Ticket Holders!"
I'm not a season ticket holder, so I figure that I'll pass this on to y'all, since obviously, you don't have to be a season ticket holder to get it.

Anyway...the deal is - the terrace sideline seats, which are usually 65 are going for 40 with a 3$ handling fee. Or the Field Level Endzone is 85.

You can phone your orders to David Goldberg (504) 731-1885
Fax them to Attn David (504) 522-1692
or email them to goldbergd@saints.nfl.com

or if you want to be all old fashioned about it, there is a mailing address - but I'm not sure if you'll need this form? All orders must be recieved by Fri Nov 19 @ 5pm CST.

Just an FYI. :) Hope this helps anyone who might have thought they couldn't afford tickets or that they weren't still available! :)

[flair]

Which side will the Broncos be on in NO I am sitting at 121.

[DONKEYSHOW]

Which side will the Broncos be on in NO I am sitting at 121.

I am on Broncos side and im in 217. If that helps...

[Rock Chalk]

flair that should be broncos side. Depends on which way they go but Im in 110 and thats Bronco side.

[BigPlayShay]

I just got confirmation that I will be in NO for this weekend and will be attending the game. Arriving Saturday afternoon, and not leaving until Monday afternoon. Already shot a PM to Alec, and I hope to meet up with some Broncs fans.

I also plan on stopping by OF1 during one of the next couple of home games. I have been running late for the previous home games and haven't had a chance to stop by.

Right on Shay. Space #31 lot C-rv. You can't miss us. Sounds like the NO gathering is shaping up nicely also!

Hey Alec any updates?

[flair]

I cant wait to watch the Broncos in november ...hell I cant wait for Monday night.

[Rock Chalk]

BigPlayShay PMed, told me he is going. I got his number so when we get to New Orleans we can call him and tell him where to meet us at. Your hooked up for wired and Im ready for wireless road travel ;D

Now if my boy Hogan and his "friend" dont hang out with us Im gonna be pissed. He owes me like four drinks by now.

33 days to go! :thumbs:

Aww...Poor Alec. He's just jealous because he doesn't have a woman to hang out with :devil:

[Meck77]

Worm is the local out there right? I guess my question is where is everyone staying? Did you guys book rooms yet? If so where? I'm only going to be intown a couple days and I can't imagine sleep being a huge priority in NO so I'll probably just crash on the bus but I do need to figure out where to park.

[Hogan11]

Aww...Poor Alec. He's just jealous because he doesn't have a woman to hang out with :devil:

:spit: zowie!

[Sassy]

Hey Alec...Are you ignoring me? Ha! :devil: Ha!

[Rock Chalk]

Whatcha laughing at Hogan? Keep it up and those drinks you are gonna owe me are Dom Perignon, a shot of Patron, 12 year old Glenfiddich and Crown Special Reserve.

[Sassy]

Any updates on what people are doing? Arriving, etc.?

What time is OF1 going to be at the stadium?

[BlueDamsel]

Has anyone from the planning group (alec, hogan, worm?) contacted the stadium to see where/if we can park the bus? If not, let me know, I'll get on the horn now...

What about the party? Do we have those details worked out yet? I'm trying to get the bus group all organized...Alec, can you IM me later?

[Meck77]

Last I heard about the bus parking was I think worm was looking at getting us a spot at the Hyatt? Is that the one off the main drag of bourbon that goes to the stadium.

[Rock Chalk]

The dude I got the tickets from has a perfect spot for us. If worm is gonna get a place for the bus at the Hyatt that will be cool but if not I got a secondary plan.

The only thing I know is that worm needs to give me his phone number since Im coming with the OF1 crew so we can all hook up there. I will be bringing my laptop and and have all the contact information in PM...or did I delete it all...crap I may have deleted it all.

Also Meck, there is a slight snag in the plan on my end, PM me about it.

[GSRelyea]

So, when is everyone arriving in New Orleans? My flight get's in on Friday at around 2:30. Looking forward to having Harrah's right around the corner from the hotel and will prob. spend most of Friday night at a craps table. Are people still planning on getting together sometime on Saturday? Just curious to see what everyone was thinking.

[Rock Chalk]

Hey greg.

I saw this at work but for some reason the Mane is really slow at my work so I didnt respond.

Here's the plan, as far as I know (if this isnt the plan, someone fill me in).

Meck and BlueDamsel and the Denver OF1 crew are picking me and my friend up here in Tejas on Friday night or Saturday morning. We are driving to NO right after that. We will all meet up at worm's house/loft/condo/townhome/warehouse/whatever because he has so graciously invited us all over for food and beer (I think he mentioned something about buying all the booze ;D Ha! no im kidding worm).

That will be on Saturday.

Sunday morning we are going to either go to the place Worm has picked out or a place the guy who got me the tickets knows about that is perfect for the Bus. Either way, we will figure it all out.

Worm, send me directions to your crib and I will forward them along to all those who are going to go in their own method of transportation (basically whoever needs it).

Special thanks go out to Meck77, BlueDamsel, worm, and Hogan11, without whom this shindig would not be possible. Meck for bringing the Denver crew and OF1, BlueDamsel for organizing all this sh*t cause lord knows nothign would get done if it were up to me, worm for offering us a place to hang out and meet and drink a bit the day before hand and Hogan for inspiring me to go to the New Orleans game last year.

Oh and man, we are gonna have some Halo 2 action on the bus! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Sassy]

My flight gets in at 4:06 pm on Friday.

[Hogan11]

I don't hit the Easy until 5:30 PM on Friday...I'll at the very least need to know where the Bus will be for sure and where the worm establishment is at.

I've found out the The Ponys are in town Saturday night and IMO, they were very cool opening up for the Blues Explosion last week in Cleveland, so I may check that out.

That's "classified" info :devil:
I can't tell you or I'd have to kill ya! rofl!

[BlueDamsel]

Aw Sassy, throw the guy a bone! LOL

Robb's parents just got back from NOLA this past weekend & gave me a map & a list of local "must hit bars" in the French Quarter...

[BlueDamsel]

Oh and man, we are gonna have some Halo 2 action on the bus! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Does that mean I have to get the Xbox all hooked up?
Right now the PS2 is hooked up - I need to find out from DTL how to get the back tv powered up for the XBox...

[Sassy]

Aw Sassy, throw the guy a bone! LOL

Robb's parents just got back from NOLA this past weekend & gave me a map & a list of local "must hit bars" in the French Quarter...
So where did they say to go?

[BlueDamsel]

Uh I left the list in the car.

Fritzels or something like that was one of them...

Something on some-big-long-word street was another...

and uh I don't know. Do you really think I was paying attention????? hehe

[Sassy]

That's ok! LOL!
When are you guys leaving?

[BlueDamsel]

I think late Thursday night...Maybe early Friday...

[Sassy]

How long a drive is that?

[Sassy]

Hey, Everyone that is going to NO SIGN IN HERE! Ha!
We need to get a head count! ;D

[Hogan11]

I'm in, of course.....BTW kids, weather looks like mid to upper 70's during the day, lows in the mid to low 60's with a chance of showers on Sat.

I know the game is indoors, but if your in for the weekend, don't pack away the summer clothes just yet ;D

All you yankees will be wearing shorts and I promise you I will be in the warmest clothing I own.

[Meck77]

Alec/Worm give me a ring tomorrow. I need some details on what's going on.

Your mixed up. You throw the girl the bone. err....c'mon... come get it....good girl.....

I was right in Pensacola and could of made it easy. I can't believe OF1 is strutting down there. That's a drive. Have fun. I'm green with envy.

[Hogan11]

Looks like showers all weekend long....par for the course for me, my last two trips there, it's rained.

[Rock Chalk]

Alec/Worm give me a ring tomorrow. I need some details on what's going on.

I called, left a message, you never called back.

Punk.

[Sassy]

BigPlayShay PMed, told me he is going. I got his number so when we get to New Orleans we can call him and tell him where to meet us at. Your hooked up for wired and Im ready for wireless road travel ;D

33 days to go! :thumbs:
Hey Alec....How many does he owe you now! LOL!

[BlueDamsel]

I called, left a message, you never called back.

Punk.

You should have called the other number. His cell doesn't get good reception in the office, so it probably didn't even ring.

[flair]

We will be in NO on Saturday there will be 5 of us there .

[Rock Chalk]

You should have called the other number. His cell doesn't get good reception in the office, so it probably didn't even ring.

Like I have all of Meck's numbers.

[BlueDamsel]

I was hand signaling him to leave the office number when he called you the other day. He just told whomever answered that you had the number.

Alec I'll give you a ring around 10:00am my time. BTW I've got an extra pair of saints tickets also if someone is interested. I forget what section but they are lower level endzone.

Oh and for those riding along OF1 is getting her tranny serviced for the road trip. We should be good to go! That pretty much concludes all the preventative maintenance I had scheduled before this road trip.

Just so long as she's in good shape the following week as well ;)

Have a great trip everyone! Can't wait to see the pictures!

[GSRelyea]

I don't know what everyone is planning on doing Sunday morning, but I would like to donate some cash to help out with this. Since we are not renting a car, going to gets kegs or food, might be a little tough, so if someone could pm or email me at GSRelyea@aol.com and let me know the best way to help out, that would be great. I can't believe that the Broncs are only laying 4 points to that scrub saints squad.... LOCK & LOAD!!!!!!!

[Meck77]

Well the plan was to meet up at Worms......

Worm what's the word? How do we get ahold of you?

[Hogan11]

The Saints are a scary team not to be taken lightly....ok, I admit, If I believed in that "second team" bullshat..the Saints would be mine....but I don't, so they're not.... even though I do have a little fondness of them.....when they're good, they're very good...when they're bad, they are horrid....I'm hoping they're horrid this weekend.

As for me, you know who's cell phone I can be reached through...Ha!

[Saints Fan in A]

For those coming down to New Orleans, you're sure to enjoy the trip! Be safe and don't stay too late on Bourbon street! It can get dangerous!

And make sure Plummer doesn't slip in his driveway on the way to the airport!

Jennifer Scheck?

[BlueDamsel]

Well then - would the "you know who" please pm me her cell #? ;) I am trying to make a list of all the people we may need to contact while we're down there - and where you're staying too would be helpful. Since apparantly Worm hasn't responded to anything - pm, threads, etc, I guess we're going to meet up at a bar or something instead. So let's get the info all gathered...we leave in 2 days...Yipes!

[Sassy]

Who's all riding OF1?

[BlueDamsel]

At this point - OK & Meck & I are coming from CO, picking up Alec & his buddy in Houston...so a total of 5 of us.

[Hogan11]

No Discoman?? That sucks...he would've dug The Ponys Sat. night.

[BlueDamsel]

Yeh - he has a new job that he can't get the time off from...
He'll be there, "wooing" in spirit! ;)

[Hogan11]

Aww that's awful......New Orleans was tailored made for him.

[BlueDamsel]

He & Jester & them will all be watching the game together, so they really will be there in spirit!

[Hogan11]

Jennifer Scheck?

That's right Jenny....Ha!

[Sassy]

That's right Jenny....Ha!

[flair]

I will be wearing my TD for the game because I tried to change it up after a couple of losses so I brought back some old school. I will be contacting you Meck soon . Hope to see you guys there. Go Broncos

[Meck77]

Look forward to meeting you and your crew Flair. I just talked to Damsel and Worm sent her an email. He has been busy and is in NY right now. Not sure what the rest of the email said but maybe we are still on at Worms place. We'll post more if we hear from him or maybe he'll swing on it.

Either way it's going to be a good time in NO!!!!!!!!!!!

We have a fifth ticket if anyone knows someone who needs it. Let me know. I sent all my contact info to bluedamsel.

See everyone there.

Bryan

[Hogan11]

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone...I love games in the Superdome, but that noon start time is an absolute killer....good thing it's New Orleans because anywhere else would shut the pregame indulgance down to basically zero before a start time like that.

[BlueDamsel]

Alrighty...
After some phone calls & some fanagaling, we have it set up so we can throw down a tailgate the REAL way...

I'm not sure what the plan is for Saturday night, or where we're all meeting up, but on Sunday we're going to get to the Stadium kind of early (they open the lot at 5 am...) and will be tailgating in full Broncos fashion. We've cleared it with the parking manager that we can park in Lot #4, we will have the grill going, food, and beer. As always, we'll have a donation bin for those who would like to contribute.

If anyone has any questions or cannot find us, please pm me or "OrangeForceOne" on the board, and I'll try to get back to you with information.

New Orleans might be known for their partying, but we'll show them how it's really done!!!! Look forward to meeting you all/seeing you again!

So Alec I hear you are throwing down some ribs!!!! I figure we'll do some local shopping around there and grab some craw fish and other local goods on Saturday....I'll have the steamer pot in tow and the bar stocked!!!

We got the bus secure parking at the Hilton and we'll be staying at the Double Tree.

Last call for Broncos fans who need to hitch a ride to NO! We are pulling outta here in a few hours!

We will see you there Meck. We are traveling from OKC. Maybe we will see you on the road. If it were just me I would say pick me up, but I got a few guys with me as you know. We are heading out tomorrow afternoon. Plan to hit the casion Saturday night and Lot 4 sunday morning. Later. Drive safe. How about that ticket? You want to join us.

Let's clarify something here for people not from the south.

Any percent chance of rain means rain. What you may not be aware of is that it usually means is spot showers, once or maybe twice a day for about 10 minutes at a time.

Bring an umbrella just in case, but make sure you bring deodorant. You yankees may not be used to the humidity ;D

My friend coming with us makes the best crawfish in Texas and could compete with the cajuns in Louisiana.

We got the bus secure parking at the Hilton and we'll be staying at the Double Tree.

Meck call me from your cell phone when you see this.

[OrangeForceOne]

We see you now Alec, but it's 2 in the morning, you sure you want us to call you?
We're in the middle of Nowhere, KS...Stopped at a gas station with some locals asking if we're Broncos fans or sumthin' ;)

Just checking in, making sure the sattelite works, checking the weather, etc. See y'all soon...

Alec - when you see this, call the cell phone! ;) LOL

[Pezman]

:hitself: ROFL!

[Hogan11]

Believe it or not, I've never had crawfish before....didn't know the first thing about how to eat them, so I've always stayed away from them...someone is gonna have to edumacate me on this fine art this weekend Ha!

[OrangeForceOne]

Well we're in Ok now. This is Meck signing in now. Kansas sucks. Good thing I drove thru it in the dark. Hogan you just rip the little bastards apart and suck out the meat. Basically they are like mini lobsters. Alec I forgot my steamer pot. Think you can round one up by the time we get there?

[flair]

We will be leaving Missouri at 5 , I have to pick up my son and look forward to a Bronco Win on Sunday.

[Pezman]

Ah sounds like you missed Kanorado again! Ha!
So much to see, so much to do in Western Kansas!

Guys, I'll be signing off for the next week or so everyone have a safe and fun time down in the Big Easy and I will see you all next week IN DENVER WHOOHOO!!!

GO BRONCOS!!!

[alberson55]

Looking forward to seeing everyone in New Orleans. Plan on having a great time at the orange mane thanks for all the information and help on getting there. Go Broncos!!

[ol number 7]

We will be leaving Missouri at 5 , I have to pick up my son and look forward to a Bronco Win on Sunday.

When you live in a glass house and your name is Ric Flair; You can do anything you like. WOOOO

[OrangeForceOne]

This is Alec chiming in.

First things first.

There is no place to have a tailgate party quite like New Orleans. This place rocks. If you have never been I highly suggest that you come soon and amke arrangements to drink a Hurricane from Pat O'Briens (the original place for hurricanes) and at Tropical Isle for a hand grenade.

Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades and this place's hand grenades (a drink "The strongest drink in New Orlenas") just kicks ass.

Ok so Hogan11, Sassy and Meck and BlueDamsel and even that fake ass Fade fan Crow are mad cool people to party with. This place rocks. Come to new orleans as soon as possible.

I know its only 12:30 but you know Bourbon street can get you so ****ed up in such a short amount of time that 9 o'clock seems early and you are lucky to make it to 12:30. Or at least I was.

Anyway, Game on tomorrow, Will give updates then!

[OrangeForceOne]

Word..........Tons of Broncos fans in NO..............Meck chiming out!

[OrangeForceOne]

Almighty Crow chiming in. That's right, the return of The Real. Raider Invasion, Phase 1:Orange Force 1 is now underway. BlueDamsel looks good in Black, btw. ;)

I'll give you orange mudder fuggers credit where it's due. Y'all produced some alright sum b/tches.

Your team still sucks, but your fans are alright. Well, except for Alec. I like him, but that incident w/ the female impersonater has me concerned. :saywhat:

[OrangeForceOne]

Alrighty People, We're in the lots, partying....Got the fade fan on the grill, err I mean the chicken on the grill with a beer can shoved up it's hindquarters, shrimp & brats are marinating & getting ready to go on...

These guys around here are looking at us not knowing what is going on...Come find us! Lot 4, around behind the stadium....Pictures to go up soon...

[OrangeForceOne]

Allright everyone else is putting 2 cents in I guess I will too I am in great mood to. There is something to be said about a city that you go down to burbon st. at night and.......gets fuzzy after that but remember laughing ass off and haveing great time. Food in great and poof this morning wake up to phone and getting told its TAILGATE TIME. I had choice words, but then poof little while later at the bus and a little hair of the dog and poof I am laughing ass off and haveing great time truth is I think I could spend heck long time down here and everything has potential of being a blurr of haveing great time laughing ass off and GREAT F.N. FOOD!!!!!!!!

OrangeKnight

[Crow]

Just wanted to stop by and thank everyone again for a fun time. Orange Force 1 is...wow. I saw the before pics. Having seen the finished product, to say that you guys did a helluva job would be selling you short. Gotta improve that head room, though. ;)

Meck, sorry I slipped out more or less unannounced. Between the sweating and my loner mentality, I was ready to jet. No offense intended, bro. It's just something I do. Family and friends have cussed me for years about "disappearing".

For the record, I would definitely drink w/ you gents and ladies again. We'd just have to convince Meck to slow down long enough to realize that there's a party going on around him. ;)

Great meeting all of y'all, and make sure you plan for a weekend visit during Mardi Gras...just don't expect to find a room unless you reserve them now. If not before, I'll see you orange fuggers then.

[Hogan11]

What a great weekend. It was great seeing the OF1 crowd once again, you guys definitely need to return to that city with more time on your hands...I mean, is New Orleans a great place or what?

It was great walking down Burbon St. with the OF1 gang and having people just coming up and introducing themselves at every turn....very cool.

Alec, Tahn, Crow, Tredici, The Orange Limo Crew, GSRelyea and his group...the girls with the nosebleed seats and anyone else I've forgotton, it was great to meet you all and hope to see you again at a future Broncos game. For the OF1 crowd and Sassy, I'll be seeing you guys again next season for sure.

[alberson55]

Thanks for the great time Orange Force One. It was great meeting everyone had a great time. That was one of the most complete games i had seen the Broncos play in a long time. New Orleans was great in all ways!!!!!!!!!

"DITTO"...(I'm still too exhausted to write that long of a post! Ha! )

[alberson55]

Sassy im all ready looking forward to you guys coming to the big Kansas City game. That will probably be the next game i will be able to go too, and since im from here in Missouri it will be that much sweeter. It was an awesome time meeting all of you and will be a killer of a time tearing up ole KC.

[Crow]

"DITTO"...(I'm still too exhausted to write that long of a post! Ha! )

;D

Keep in mind, this is the lady who lost her voice the night before the game. I think she had fun.

And I can't stress this enough: You guys need to make plans to come check our Mardi Gras. For those of you who made your first trip to Bourbon Street, imagine what you saw Saturday night...only 100 times more ridiculous. Keep your women close and your wallets closer and everyone should have a great time. :pimp:

[Sassy]

Yeah...I was busy yelling back and forth with a Saints fan...Then I asked him if he seriously thought the Saints could win and he said "No"! Ha! Of course, there was the "Go Broncos" with every fan on Bourbon Street! Ha!

You're not a bad guy for a Raider fan Crow! LOL! Ha!
and you're right...where is that pic of you with the Bronco head!??? Alec???

I still dont have my voice back fully crow.

[DONKEYSHOW]

Words cannot express the blast my wife and I had in NOLA. The city is freaking awesome, and the OF1 was the icing on the cake for a post game beer or two. Thanks Meck, Damzel, AR, and all who were there. Friendly people talking Bronco Football really made the trip memorable for us. What a 40th Bday gift! Thanks to my wife Stacey, I love you baby! :thumbsup:

[Crow]

Fun was definitely had by all...unless you were a Saints fan. ;)

I wonder if Meck's ego took a hit, though. Only a hundred or so people came to check out the bus, lol. I swear, every 5 minutes there were people asking if they could have a look inside. Some even asked me. Hmm. Orange bus decked out in Bronco ****...I think I'll ask the blatant Raider fan if it's okay for me to go inside.

Some of you orange fuggers ain't too bright. ;)

[Crow]

I still dont have my voice back fully crow.

Yeah, but you lost your voice due to excessive drinking. I think you drowned your vocal cords. ;D

[BlueDamsel]

Well, we made it back, finally...
We went through every type of weather possible, including tornados, rain, flash flooding, snow, sun, wind...We were just waiting for the earthquake...

More to come tmrw...I gotta go unpack, so we can repack incase we end up driving up through the mtns tmrw night...I still feel the bus moving underneath me...

[Hogan11]

Glad to hear you all made it back safe and sound......I'm looking forward to seeing more pics!

Next week should be something what with Pez and Mock in attendance......

[Sassy]

Yeah, but you lost your voice due to excessive drinking. I think you drowned your vocal cords. ;D
Ha!

Just how many hurricane glasses did you end up with Alec?

[GSRelyea]

Just wanted to chime in here and thank everyone involved for a great weekend. Meck the bus is amazing, and you couldn't have been a better host, what a great party. Damzel,Alec,Raiderfan,Sassy,Hogan and everyone else I had the great privledge of meeting, thank you all for a great party. I have seen several Bronco games in the past, but nothing compared to this, to be able to talk bronco football with so many great fans was an unbelievable expierence. Thank you all again, and I hope to do again very soon.

[Rock Chalk]

Ha!

Just how many hurricane glasses did you end up with Alec?

6, though 3 of them were mine and 3 were Thanh's.

[Meck77]

Just wanted to chime in here and thank everyone involved for a great weekend..

That's what it's all about brother.... good people. I can tell you the OrangeMane has them.

Thanks for helping out with the beer and your contribuition. Here's a funny little story about these guys. GSRelyea and his posse were rolling down the street with a few cases of Coors Light on the way to the tailgate when they ran into the Coors light event rep. So Greg and his crew invite the guy to OF1 and the party and he joined us! We swapped cards and he said "Whatever you guys need we can help". Ofcourse I said "BEER!!!!!!" The guy gave us a huge stack of Coors Lights hats and I'm pretty sure most people at the party got one.

Anyhow I'm going to give the Coors man a call today and see what happens.

:raiderssu :raiderssu :raiderssu :raiderssu :raiderssu :raiderssu

Thanks for the connection!

[Crow]

I didn't get a hat. :(

[Meck77]

I didn't get a hat. :(

Probably because the fella that was handing them out was a Broncos fan. I got some extras. They are pretty sweet actually. They say coors light on them and I think they have an nfl logo if I'm not mistaken.

I'll have Damsel pop one in the mail to you. Which bridge do we send that to? hmmm...

[Crow]

I moved out from under the bridge. The gar were getting to aggressive.


I saw a great dumpster just off of Bourbon Street, though. I need to find out if someone already lives there. :ipimp:

[Hogan11]

I didn't get a hat. :(

I didn't either....he started to come my way, saw me holding a Bud Light and then turned around Ha! It's ok, I hate Coors Light anyways...

I don't know why, but I had an urge to yell out to him "Hey Man, you can't flag the King!!" Ha!

[Crow]

Personal foul: Teasing w/ a free hat. Tailgate denied. Play beer!

[Sassy]

Hey Crow...you should never mingle with the fans of a rival team a week before the game! Ha! ;D That'll teach ya! Ha!

[Meck77]

Could I introduce a bill to the Orangemane legislation? I think we should take crow's boa pic, cut me out of it and put it on the front page of the Mane.

All if favor say Aye...........

Or what a second maybe we should wait until after the game.......hmmmm

I'm going to do my best to get some raider fan pain shots during the 3rd and 4th quarter to post. Maybe we could use those instead. I think ole Crow has been beaten up enough.

[Crow]

Hey Crow...you should never mingle with the fans of a rival team a week before the game! Ha! ;D That'll teach ya! Ha!

Well, just keep in mind, I have access to pics of you too. I also know some photo editting cats who could do you some serious injustice.

Just an FYI. ;)



BTW, where at raiderfans.net did you post that hideous pic?

[Crow]

Wench. And Meck...you dog, you.

[Sassy]

Awww.....Crow...you love us! :devil:

[BlueDamsel]

I'm actually the one that posted it - meck just left himself logged in! ;)

[Crow]

Well, you see what happens when you mess w/ The Nation. Don't let it happen again. :ipimp:

[BlueDamsel]

Hmmm CB owned? Maybe by the refs...Was that the one that ended up being a bs pass interference call?...F'ing refs.

[Crow]

We're not blaming this loss on the officiating, are we? Tell me you're not serious. We got hosed a couple times by the zebras as well, so that's no excuse. Bailey just got outmatched.
