The Denver Broncos were founded August 14, 1959 when owner Bob Howsman was granted an AFL (American Football League) charter franchisehttp://www.buzzle.com/articles/denver-broncos-team-history.html. The team began play in 1960, and on September 9th, defeated the Boston Patriots in the inaugural game of the AFL. When the NFL and AFL merged, the Broncos were assigned to, and still play in the American Football Conference of the NFL.

They have appeared 6 times in the Superbowl, winning in both 1997 and 1998. The winning tradition the team has established, has made finding tickets sometimes difficult, so you should be prepared to act quickly when you start your search.

Your best bet and safest option to purchase individual or season tickets would be to go directly to the Bronco ticket site and use Ticketmaster.http://www.denverbroncos.com/page.php?id=2643. Season tickets are at a premium, so if you are looking to attend every game, get yourself put on the waiting list. The following quote is directly from the Denver Bronco website.

The Denver Broncos Reserved Season Ticket Waiting List currently has over 28,000 names. The number of tickets offered to waiting list customers each year is based solely on the number of season tickets not renewed from the prior year. The current estimated wait is 13 - 15 years.http://www.denverbroncos.com/page.php?id=2673

Obtaining Tickets for a Soldout NFL Game: Most National Football League games are sellouts. If they are not, the NFL blackout ban is not lifted and area viewers cannot watch the game on their home TVs. For soldout games, football fans have a limited number of ways to obtain tickets.

If you start a few days early, you can visit Stubhub and check the availability of game tickets. This is where fans who have made other plans or decided they do not want to use their tickets, can put them up for sale. If you purchase from this site, you are buying through a reputable dealer and can feel relatively safe making your purchase.

Craigslist is an alternative site to search for and purchase tickets to the game you are interested in. When purchasing from here, it is recommended you do so in person and verify your tickets are legitimate. Unlike Stubhub, you may well find phony offers or scam artists looking for an easy target. This is a good site to find a variety of items, but take care not to be taken. As a side note, you can also POST on Craigslist yourself for games you are looking to buy tickets to.

Game day scalpers are also a method of obtaining tickets. You can usually find these guys selling & pushing tickets on the streets around the stadium. Similar to Craigslist, be sure you know what you are buying before handing over your hard earned money.

Another method of obtaining tickets is to go to your team's home sitehttp://www.denverbroncos.com/page.php?id=2643. There you may be able to find tickets, that Season Ticket holders have decided to try and sell. Sometimes you can get with your friends and purchase discounted season tickets. Then you can decide which game es each of you will attend.

Remember though, that there will be times that tickets are being sold above face value and there will be nothing you can do, but suck it up and put out the bucks if you must attend the game. Try your best to make any purchases well before the game and from reputable sellershttp://www.denverbroncos.com/page.php?id=2643
