As I noted in our roundup of the top twenty tweets about the Broncos breaking crybaby Philip Rivers’s heart again, I was fortunate enough to attend the team’s September 11 home opener versus the Los Angeles Chargers. Accompanying me was my daughter Lora, who not only purchased the tickets as the best Father’s Day gift ever, but also helped me photo-document the scene.
The Broncos designated the game “Orange Monday” and encouraged fans to deck themselves out in the most iconic of the squad’s colors – and as you’ll see, the vast majority of attendees happily complied.
Continue to sample scenes surrounding Denver’s coronary-inducing 24-21 triumph.

The security rules were clear – but somehow, about half of those in attendance seemed to be confused by them anyway.

The Broncos declared the game “Orange Monday,” and most fans did their best to make the stadium monochromatic.

Just because you’re completely decked out in Broncos merch doesn’t mean you’ve got enough.

And the best-dressed woman? Lora Roberts, who boasted a custom-made “Cry Me a Philip Rivers” T-shirt.
