Any Panther fans going to the game at Denver?

[UNIChippewa]

I live about three hours northwest of Denver, in Steamboat Springs (not the Florida Keys any longer, for some reason I can't change that on my profile). I'm wondering if any of you are going to be in Denver, Friday, 11/13 for UNI's season opener against Denver University.

If so, it might be worth driving down for. If not, might just be easier to see it online, especially if the weather is bad. But, it could be fun to get tickets and watch the game live with fellow UNI fans. I don't think it's going to be a sellout, so my guess is there will be plenty of seats available.

You live in Steamboat Springs???
I'm jealous. I don't think I could ever hold a job there, as I'd be calling in sick just about everyday in the winter.

I live about a mile from DU so yes.

It's Denver, Colorado, not Denver, Iowa.

Your location still says Cedarloo, so I couldn't resist.

Well Cedarloo is not a really city, so I could live anywhere, huh?

That is correct....however you did say DU and not Denver....so my theory is irrelavent.

Well, unfortunately, it looks like the weather won't be cooperating for a drive down to Denver tomorrow or Saturday. If I was an hour or two closer, I would chance it, but I've driven through too many blizzards between Steamboat and Denver to feel safe chancing it.

And yes, Steamboat is a nice place to live. Expensive and isolated, but a nice place regardless.

Don't take a chance. Save yourself first. It is not worth it to danger yourself and your family. Too bad you had to miss the game though and give us a report!
