  • John Elway on Pat Bowlen: "It Will Never Be the Same Here"
    Kiszla: Pat Bowlen's departure leaves a hole Broncos can't fill By Mark Kiszla The Denver Post July 24, 2014 Yes, there is crying in football. The love that makes the Broncos a family is the same love that made the first day without Pat Bowlen hurt so badly tears were worn like a badge of honor. Mr. B has left the building. The cruel reality of Alzheimer's disease ushered the 70-year-old Bowlen out the door before anybody at Dove Valley headquarters was ready to say goodbye. "There is finality to it," Broncos president Joe Ellis told me Wednesday. As Ellis talked, his eyes unabashedly filled with emotion and glistened with fondness for a man who did more than own the Broncos for three decades. Bowlen quietly demanded excellence all 365 days of every year. As the harsh realization of his words caught in his throat, Ellis struggled to add: "Mr. Bowlen won't be in the building today. And I don't think he will be walking in the door tomorrow. It's brutal." During his NFL career, John Elway was sacked more than 500 times. Three losses in the Super Bowl stung. But here is what caused the old quarterback to exhale slowly, wipe his nose and bite a tongue to hold back tears: "This place will never be the same," said Elway, paying respect to Mr. B on the summer afternoon when the office of the owner was empty and the franchise felt a hole in its heart. Before the Broncos could open training camp and get down to the task of building a Super Bowl dream, there was a much tougher chore.

  • Broncos Season Ticket Prices Rise Slightly for the First Time in 3 Years by Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post Feb
    Broncos season ticket prices rise slightly for the first time in 3 years By Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post Feb. 8, 2019 The Broncos are increasing general season ticket prices in 2019 for the first time in three years. Ninety-five percent of the general seats will have an increase of only one percent and the remaining five percent of seats will have an increase of less than 10 percent. This does not include club and suite ticket packages, which are separate multi-year contracts. Invoices for renewals will be emailed to fans next week. Last year, the renewal rate was 98 percent. The Broncos said they have “close to,” 80,000 names on their waiting list for season tickets and expect a 50th consecutive year of sellouts. “In order to keep pace with the league, and at the same time respect our fans and how much we appreciate them, we knew we needed an increase but we were cognizant of not going overboard,” said Clark Wray, the Broncos’ senior director of ticket strategy and analytics. The Broncos’ general seating average price will increase from $101.30 to $103.06. Last year’s average ticket price was 15th in the NFL. The Broncos’ average ticket price for general seating has increased by 4.64 percent from 2015-19 (including a 3.1-percent increase after the 2015 Super Bowl season). By comparison, five teams (Oakland, Tampa Bay, Atlanta, Carolina and Green Bay) have increased their average general ticket price by more than 20 percent. Of not increasing prices for three years, Wray said: “I wouldn’t say (it’s) abnormal.
