Ok, my family is flying into Denver from all over (3 states to be exact) to go to the football game on Sunday night. The thing is we're all Seahawks fans and we'll have 6 kids with us (16 and younger). Will it be ok to sport Seahawks gear at the stadium in Denver? I keep hearing the Denver crowd is pretty hard core....
Any Denver fans willing to give us some advice? Thanks!!!

Naw, go ahead and wear your Seattle jerseys, you'll be fine. The Denver fans at Mile High are indeed rabid, but that's mainly in regards to supporting their team. They're not that rowdy with opposing fans. I'm a Raider fan and once wore my Raiders' "Real Men Wear Black" shirt to a game at Mile High and only encountered some good-natured ribbing. And the Raiders are FAR more hated than your SeaHags. (sorry, had to slip that in there, being a Raider!) So go ahead and have fun and don't worry.
Now--if you were to wear a SeaHawk jersey in Oakland you'd have to either leave the game or take it off, guaranteed. But that's another story......LOL

I think you have some pretty good advice here. There are usually sections where the visiting fans most often sit. If you can get seats there of course its better. Like one person wrote, nobody really wants to start bad trouble at a game because the consequences can be serious, from being thrown out right up losing your season ticket privileges.
The majority of sports fans are really quite decent as many have said and they are pretty tolerant of visiting fans. You will be a LOT safer as a family with 6 kids quietly cheering your home team, than you would be as 3-4 rowdy screaming drunken idiots spaying beer in every direction and yelling "Broncos totally SUCK! you stupid Denver c***s***ers!" Those are the type of visiting losers who usually find all the trouble at the other team's home stadium.
Oh and Good Luck with the game, LETS GO 'HAWKS!

You may get some boos, and some looks, but I would expect not much more than that. I live in New England, and they were one of the worst places to go to a game. Now, here is the thing, if they get too bad, report them to security. In many of these cities, there are thousands of fans waiting for seasons tickets. Fans cross the line ONCE, and you're gone, as are your season tickets. Other people in the area may help too if people are being too obnoxious. So expect some boos, some "Seahawks Suck", anything too bad, call the security people. There may even be other Seahawks fans at the game. I hope the Broncos win, though!!!!

I plan to find out when I wear my normal Eagles jersey to Giants Stadium this weekend. I also intend to attend the Flyers road game at San Jose while visiting my brother wearing my Flyers colors. I think most of it depends on how we act. But that's no guarantee that we won't get the treatment.

You will take some verbal abuse. Still, if YOU are not obnoxius you'll be fine.
Denver is hardcore, but no one will try to start a fight, like they do at Raider games.
Denver fans no longer have any particulalr hatred for Seahawk fans, since they are out of the division. If it was Oakland or KC, I would tell you to stay home.
Be quietly excitied for your team, friendly, respectful, and we'll let you leave in one piece. Naked skin is always appreciated.

I'm from Denver and not sure where you heard about how 'hard core' we are. You should have no problems, and especially because you'll have children with you. The only jersey's we have problems with are the Raiders...

I'm not a Denver fan but I am a Seahawks fan, wear your team colors proudly and let the Seahawks see you and your family in the sea of orange, cheering, even in the tough situations
GO HAWKS!!!

The Denver crowd is a bunch of pansies!!! Where what you want. I wore a Cowboys jersey all over Denver and I basically owned that city. Half the people don't even care.

Denver can be pretty rowdy. I think you'll be OK. Never do it OAKLAND or PHILLY. The fans have lost their minds there...because it wont be beer in the full cups being thrown at you.
