Bronco Traditions

Denver loves the Broncos, and if you are new to Denver you may be surprised by all of the support that this football team receives. If you are in a grocery store on a Sunday in Fall, the game will be broadcasted, employees may all have orange and there will be displays of foods suitable for football watching with the Bronco logo surrounding them. If you go to church on Sunday, don’t be surprised to see the minister in a orange tie. The fans of the Broncos are serious and want everyone to know it. This may be because Denver is geographically segregated from other famous football towns by several thousands of miles. The Denver fans want to make sure everyone supports their team even though rival fans may not be around to see the support for the Broncos.

One of the biggest traditions that fans and players are known for is giving the ‘Mile High Salute’. This military type salute was made popular by Terrell Davis. This outstanding player made fame for the Broncos from 1995 to 2002. The tradition lives on and you can see fans and players alike giving the mile high salute when witnessing a great play.
