...turns out that the spots will be rotating due to limited access, so I will only be able to post updates every once in awhile. The rest of the time, I guess I will wander around taking pictures or something. :)

The stadium looks great, although it has been kind of a pain in the ass getting here. Streets were shut down due to massive pedestrian traffic and the shuttle buses got diverted and didn't know what they were doing. Probably should have walked, but oh well.

There are already a lot of people in the stands, and the blogger lounge is in the press box, near the 50 yard line. Not sure where I'll actually watch the speech from, though.

Also, the weather is GREAT today. It's sunny, warm but not hot, and a little hazy. All the right-wing prayers have apparently failed to produce rain. Ironically, however, the Republican convention is looking like it will be happening during a hurricane.

More updates to come!

Here are some pics...

Line for the shuttle bus to get from Pepsi Center to Invesco...

I've never seen so many satellites in my life...
