Chargers vs Broncos @ Sports Authority Field

Game day morning started on a good note by not having any traffic to the stadium 3 hours before the stadium. Not only that, a bunch of lots were empty!! In SD by 11am, its a sold out parking lot and beers are everywhere.

On the Chargers.com forums, there was a thread for people going to Denver and there was this guy that said would bring the food, we just had to pitch in. Little did we know, this guy was from Chula Vista and good some pretty damn good carne/pork tacos that fed a whole lotta Charger fans! It was pretty cool to meet people that were all there for the same reason half way across the country.

So I tweeted Sharon from the U-T who does a weekly Out & About video for every Charger game home/away. I told her “come to Lot M, 100+ Charger fans!” and within 30 min she showed up with her one-(wo)man filming crew.

I guess we kinda jinxed the Chargers by chanting “3rd STRING JERSEY” to fans wearing Tebow jerseys before the game. Oh how that almost kicked us in the butt. And the rest was history…

2011 Chargers Training Camp

Went to a exclusive Chargers Season Ticket Holder training camp practice yesterday. It was the 1st day FA signed players could suit up for practice. Lets go through this real quick… Bob & Eric in the backfield is gonna be scary. Antonio Garay is a fun loving BEAST who loves to plank. It was Luis Castillio’s b day yesterday (1 of the guys who didn’t sign my helmet). Jammer pick 6. VJ in camp looks amazing. Charger girls look gorgeous. Ryan Mathews didn’t sign my helmet – DISLIKE. Barnes dented the stand up bags with his forearms. Gates was getting reps. Sperry ia an amazing #2 TE. And thats all. Enjoy the pics…

Chargers Park Season Tickets Tour Part 1

Yesterday Kimtan, Heather and I were invited to a season ticket personal tour of the Chargers Training Facility and front office. We were in a very small group of season ticket holders and it was a very intimate occasion. We started out in the meeting and film room. Walked through all the positional rooms (special teams, quarter backs, running backs, etc.). We got to sit in the chair Philip Rivers spends most of his days in. It was so cool looking all everything they had up on the walls. We got to check out the enormous gym that the players workout at. I couldn’t believe we were actually seeing what we were seeing.

Chargers vs Seahawks

I’ll keep this short. WTF SPECIAL TEAMS!

2010 Chargers vs Cowboys Pre-Season

It felt good to sit down in our seats again since our downfall in January to the Jets. Had a little pre-tailgate with Nikki & Karen and later showed up were Kimtan, Mish, Nick, Baby Rhythm, and Jonas Da Bonus. Definitely awesome to see everyone again, especially in chargers gear. The guys that tailgated across from us made an EZ-UP tent look like a rubik’s cube. Definitely had a great time and can’t wait for the regular season. I’m missing the home opener because i’ll be in Phuludelphia so i’ll see my chargers again versus seattle in seattle. Can’t wait!

Chargers Training Camp #2

Went to Chargers Training Camp at Chargers Park yesterday as family/guest. Our PR buddy at work is buddies with the Community Relations (CR) for the Chargers and sat us right in front of yesterdays practice. Definitely crazy how close we sat. Can’t wait for the season to start! It was good to see Ryan Mathews suited up.

Charger Girls at Training Camp

At the training camp was the first appearance of the season for some of the charger girls including a friend of mine, Marissa. It was totally cool to see her finally in charger girl uniform after all those years of wanting, hoping, and trying. All the hard work finally paid off. So if you see her at the Charger games be sure to say hi and get a photo. And congrats on the engagement!
