Our First National Football League Game: The New England Patriots vs. The Miami Dolphins
This summer has been an extremely productive one for Becca and I. We have had some extremely successful fishing trips, went to our first Red Sox game and visited beaches throughout Maine & New Hampshire. Yesterday we crossed going to a NFL game off of our bucket list, something we've wanted to for a long time. When tickets were presented for the right price we knew we had to go. We went with a co-worker and his wife who have been to dozens of games and were more prepared than we could have ever been alone.
We started the day off by getting to the parking lot super early to set up camp. We were prepared with everything: tables, grills, games, stereo system, beer, Jäger, jello shots & more. The atmosphere of the parking lot was amazing, everyone around us had an extremely great attitude. I was more than surprised when I realized even the Patriot fans were getting along with the Dolphin fans. You constantly hear about fans fighting each other but there was nothing like that here!
The feeling you got when you first walked through the gates into the stands was amazing. You got a feeling that you could never get seeing the field of TV. The fans were awesome too, everyone around you acts like your best friend. Every good play it's nothing but high fives all around. If you've never been to a game I would highly recommend it. I've been to basketball games, baseball games, hockey games, NASCAR races & now a football game. None of the other games came even close to the energy and excitement I felt inside the stadium!
Was a great game to be at with exception to Jimmy going down! Good to be 2-0 tho!
Yeah that was too bad! Blount played awesome, it was incredible to see him hurdle a defensive player in real life lol. I'm excited to see how Brissett will play, he had some awesome plays in the preseason. Obviously that was against third and fourth string players but maybe he will surprise us. Just as Jimmy G did in game 1 & 2!
