I thought it made it kind of fun with the snow. Of course I was under the awning which I appreciated having my 11yo boy with me. I guess if we had been getting hit it would of sucked. Just what happens when you get a bunch of drunk people around wet snow, I guess :-) [Reply]

I'm not sure I can remember the last time a thrown object almost interfered with a play on the field. I'm not sure I can agree with what Sam's saying here. That's the big reason this has gotten so much attention. [Reply]

Any game where there has been snow accumulated at the stadium. [Reply]

Ive heard of refs getting hit with snowballs. Or throwballs being pelted at players walking into a tunnel. Is there any precedent for a player getting hit with a snowball in mid play (or close to it)? Sorry, but that to me is so over the line it deserves serious consequences. [Reply]

There was some play 20 years ago where some idiot threw a snowball at a kicker on a key play. It hit the ground next to the holder and the kicker missed, and I think it got blamed on the snowball. I have some vague recollection that it was at the Broncos' wretched den of cheating, but I could be wrong. [Reply]

Here it is. Why am I not surprised that it happened when Elway was playing in Denver? They were also throwing snowballs at an injured referee while he was on the ground. Elway is just a despicable excuse for a human being.
How do they enforce stadium bans? If you buy a ticket second-hand, the stadium doesn't know you're coming. Ticket-scanners don't have any kind of bulletin board with them that shows who's banned. Does stadium security have something like that and monitor all the cameras? [Reply]
I don't know that I liked seeing the snowballs thrown on the field, but I'd be a liar if I didn't hope it rained dildos onto the field the first time Brady gets knocked on his ass.
That's the only thing Buffalo has done right since the wing thing. [Reply]

Section 305 a few rows above me never saw exactly who was doing it but several people were yelling at him to stop. I was in row 35 so probably row 40 or so [Reply]

If I'm a STH, and I sell a ticket to you - and you're a fucking douche who gets banned for throwing snowballs, they are gonna call me.
And then I'm going to tell them who the fuck I sold the ticket to.
With electronic tickets, these things are way easier to track. [Reply]
