Fans can dig deep to get into Invesco
Got tickets?
A lot of fans are asking that question, hoping to get the chance to be in the stadium on Saturday when the Denver Broncos play their first-ever playoff game at Invesco Field at Mile High.
Tickets aren't hard to come by -- if you're willing to pay a hefty price. Bidding for some tickets on e-Bay went as high as $1,500. Tickets ranging from $100 to $640 each were available on the Web site ticketsnow.com. And some single tickets still were available through the Web site ticketmaster.com.
Some fans might be lucky enough to get tickets at a reasonable cost -- courtesy of the Patriots. If the Patriots return any tickets from their allotment, the Broncos are expected to put them up for sale to the public within the next 48 hours.
Don't get too excited about the prospect of tickets being returned from New England. When they played at Invesco Field in October, the Patriots used their entire allotment.

Our season ticket owners have embarrassed us as Bronco fans this year. On three different occasions, i know people who went to games, and all 3 came back talking about how many people had jerseys on for the Opposing Team. Our Season ticket holders have had those tickets since the 70's. They are old. They are doing us a dis-service by not letting those tickets go. How embarrassing that Mile High Stadium would have a load of opposing fans.
