The Cow Parade was in Denver the very first time I visited this awesome city. This particular cow was shot by Flickr user GISuser.

I saw a cow painted in Broncos colors, and another one in the park! After the cows were “rounded up”, they were all auctioned off for charity. I’m pretty lucky, because I also saw the Cow Parade when it came through Las Vegas, where I’m from.

The Denver Broncos are having their annual Broncos Fan Fair this weekend, June 7th and 8th. If you’ve never attended a Fan Fair and you’re a die hard Blue and Orange fan, you don’t know what you’re missing!!

Head on out to Invesco Field at Mile High and meet the current players, coaches and staff, as well as notable alumni and the Denver Broncos Cheerleaders! (Yes kids, Miles the Bronco Mascot will be there too!)

There will be four autograph stations and two photo opportunity areas for fans to connect with their favorite players (or get to know someone new!), as well as a special Kids Zone on the field itself with a special KIDS ONLY autograph area!

Tickets are available online or at the stadium box office. A portion of the proceeds from ticket sales will benefit Denver Broncos Charities. Event times are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. A limited number of “family five packs” with tickets for five people to enjoy the entire weekend cost just $50. Individual weekend passes cost $25 for adults and $15 for children ages two to 12, while children under two get in free.
