The enormous Empower Field at Mile High is where the NFL's Denver Broncos call home. Here in Denver, being a Broncos fan isn't just a hobby - it's a way of life. The team has won three Super Bowls, including Super Bowl 50 with Peyton Manning as quarterback. On game days, you'll see the city awash in the team's trademark orange, blue and white colors.

The Mammoth took home the league championship in 2006. The season runs from December to April. See the team's schedule.
