Want To See The Super Bowl 50 Crowd Firsthand?

...or just want to see yourself assuming you attended the game.

This is the best firsthand representation of the horrid sea of orange. 
As I've explained to others, geographically it was an obvious advantage for Denver. 
The fact that they are a historic franchise that is passed down through generations doesn't help.

I'm proud of the Panther Fans that were able to make the trip. Hopefully you still had an amazing experience.

Great, glad you were in the building. People talked about the ratio, but to truly see it is another thing.

I was there. Probably 85-90% Bronco fans and it sounded like that too.

No it wasn't. 65-35 at the most and I still think that's high. There were definitely more Broncos fans but Panthers fans did a fine job representing considering it was more of a logistics challenge to travel.

That is really cool. Amazing to zoom in and see such detail.

there were a lot more Panther fans than it looked like since we were wearing black a lot. Think in the future I will wear blue if the teams wearing black at away games.

At one point, I did have to leave my seat to go and find some advil - I was in the nosebleeds and got somewhat dehydrated (first aid station gave me advil and water).  When I came back into the bowl, I could clearly hear the Keep Pounding chant - even done properly with one part of the stadium doing Keep and the other part doing pounding.  I heard it often during the game as well as the Let's Go Panthers chants, but this time really stuck me because I was not in the middle of it.  Panthers fans represented well.

They were all over the city and the panthers pep rally at Superbowl City was packed as well as the Roaring Riot Tailgate (I met Montsta there - sought him out since I brought him a towel from the 1st playoff game and the bandana from the NFCCG).  And during the game, I sat right smack in front of cookingwithgas - I knew him as Wedge back in my old days on the huddle  - have even been to his house when the Hawk Boys came to town. We had both figured out in advance that we'd be sitting like that.  The Panthers DJ sat 2 rows in front of me so I was glad to see that he made it to the game.

Here I am before becoming sad. :(

I was looking for everyone and posted up in multiple threads trying to find people from here!

Couple of bright spots from the trip: 

All Stubhub ticket purchasers got free entry into California's Great America (similar to a Six Flags theme park). It was only open for Stubhub purchasers. Everything was free. Only a few of the rides were closed. But every skill game, arcade game, and all the food, even the Dippin' Dots, were free. After we left, they had a meet and greet/autograph session with some current and former players. Pretty sure Howie Long and Tiki Barber were there. There were hardly any people in the park, so you could just walk up to any ride and get on.

We had no idea, so this was a nice surprise. Of course, we paid for it in the form of the Stubhub service fee, which was $500 or so a ticket, but we were going to pay that anyway. 

Everyone with anything to do with the game, including the Stubhub folks and the volunteers at the stadium, were really nice and energetic. They all seemed interested in making you happy to be at the Super Bowl. 

Couple low points: 

1) Levi's Stadium - totally underwhelming. I got the impression it was done on the cheap. Makes you appreciate BOA, for sure. The distance from San Fran is ridiculous. About an hour car ride from downtown San Fran. Might as well change the name of the team to Santa Clara, San Jose, or Bay Area. 

2) The Game.

I was with KissMyConverse and Free Fua. There were several other Huddlers there but now I can't recall if I know people from the Huddle, Twitter, or IRL. The all blend together.

We went to The Yard on Saturday afternoon and it was packed. The Top Cats stopped by and took pictures. We hung out for a beer and a snack, then went to Chinatown for dinner.
