To those who think that Denver fans are pig spit (or worse):

PLEASE, do not get the impression that all Broncos fans are like
the fool that threw the snowball! I have yet to talk to anyone
here in Denver that thinks the snowball incident was good.
I have also seen worse incidents at other stadiums around the
NFL. I agree that the officials should have called a penalty
on the play and the 49'ers would have had first and goal.

The City and the Broncos organization have announced that extra
security forces will be at the games when there is snow in the
stands. Anyone caught throwing snowballs (or anything else) onto
the field will be taken away from the game and prosecuted by the
City. The Broncos also said that any season ticket holders caught
throwing things will lose their season tickets. Now, to most of 
these people their season tickets mean more than life, and it
takes about a lifetime to get from the bottom of the waiting
list to the top.

I know that the above actions do not make up for what happened
Monday night. I also know that, if the Broncos go anywhere this 
year, this game and the snowball incident will be cited as a
turning point. This will be especially true if they should win
the AFC West by one game, or if the 49'ers should lose their 
division by one game.

But, as I said above, please do not base your opinions of Denver
or the football fans here on one asshole.
