That’s what it’s all about

Last weekend I was fortunate to attend a very good football game between the Broncos and the Cowboys at Invesco Field at Mile High. The stadium was awesome, and our upper-level seats still gave us a great view of the action as we sat near the 30-yard line. I took this picture of the Broncos two Lombardi’s before the contest began, and they now serve as one of my memories from a truly fantastic day.
After all, winning a Super Bowl is what it’s all about, right?
Not on this day. Glories past may still matter, but the experience of the moment seemed more glorious than anything else last Sunday. My good buddy and I yelled loudly for the home team, drank a few cold ones, and stuffed ourselves on nachos. Maybe that’s why “the present” is referred to as “the present.” This day was certainly a great one for me and an old friend I hadn’t seen in five years.
I wonder if Tony Romo feels the same about the outcome? Probably not. Players play to win games, but for fans like me, it’s all about the experience.
