COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) – Most Coloradans spent their afternoon watching the highly anticipated home playoff game between the Denver Broncos and the Buffalo Bills.
Walking into one bar on the east side of Colorado Springs, you’ll notice a lot more buffalo blue than expected.
“Broncos fans, you’re done. You’re done. And then we going to the Super Bowl…and Patriots watch out. Ya’ll been talking a lot of stuff lately,” says Bills fan, Davon Johnson.
However, that hasn’t stopped Broncos fans from showing up to bring the noise.
“I certainly felt like today was a good day to come in. And, you know, try to at least counter some of the Bills’ action in here,” teases Brandon Helm.
Walking through the establishment, the sound of Broncos die-hards are cheering on their players.
But a few hours into the Divisional Round, everyone was on the edge of their seats.
The Broncos took the lead before the Bills tied the game, taking it into overtime, and then Will Lutz kicked the winning field goal.
KRDO13 watched as half the crowd went home in a very different mood than when they came, with their heads down.
“I’m feeling very sad. Very sad. Pretty bummed out. [We’re going to] cry ourselves to sleep,” says Bills fans couple, Grant and Megan Langdon.
The Broncos are now advancing to the championship game on Sunday, January 25th.
