Week 14 - A Little Shady

[ice grillin you]

im probably alone on this but the colder the better for football games imo....im also fat

[smeags]

Yeah you have much more insullation. I don't mind the cold games. There have been some games though where insanely cold. Wosrt two I remember were the Denver game way back when the wells center was still being built and the 80 nfcg

[ice grillin you]

two coldest ever for me were atlanta divisional playoff game last year at the vet....we were in tents with kerosene heaters and still could feel any limbs

that was at least a night game....the coldest game ever was a 100 regular season game against i believe the giants...might have even been the same year....the wind was out of control....had to be negative wind chills....in my tailgating career i have never so much as sat in a car for even two minutes to warm up but that entire tailgate we sat in cars...i remember passing around a bottle of 151 to warm up...151 used to come with a screen johnson over the mouth of the bottle i guess so you couldnt pour it fast since it was so strong...my boy was using his car key to try and tear the screen off and his key broke and half of it fell right to the bottom of the bottle...probably had to be there but seeing that piece of key float to the bottom makes me lol to this day

[smeags]

Yeah that Atlanta game was pretty cold. Don't think I was at the giants game.
That Denver game I went to was crazy cold and windy. It was the Ray Rhodes era. Mamulas rookie year, he got flagged and fined when he knocked elway out.

Coldest that I remember being at was the Rams in 2002...when Kalu had 4 sacks and Bobby T had a pick six.

That is when SD fell down the stairs and played it off to perfection. He lands on the patio are at the bottom and immediately leads an Eagles chant.

i was at that game and dont remember it being too cold. then again i missed the sd drunk show.

the coldest game ever was this...why else would a chicago resident be bundled up oh wait hes a funhole

Definitely the coldest game I was ever at. The wind just cut right through you.

[QB Eagles]

I've been to games in much colder temperatures, but the coldest I've personally been at an Eagle game was Halloween '93, right after the Phillies lost the World Series. Late game started at about 45 degrees and dropped about 10 degrees. As the game went on, it went from a light drizzle to a downpour and I was out on the 600 level without any rain gear. Felt hypothermic by the end due to my own stupidity. Didn't help that Emmitt Smith rushed for a million yards and Randall had a broken leg. I think I learned a lot about being a Philly fan that year.

That's what I remember...the wind and the cold seeping through the concrete. My feet were ice blocks.

I was drinking that rum punch and had to switch to harder stuff to try and get warm

[ice grillin you]

that Rams game must be the one i thought was Giants...cause yeah the wind was out of control

[Sgt PSN]

I'm not going to count games I went to as a kid, because kids are Hoydas.  Coldest in stadium were definitely games at the Vet.  I don't even remember who the opponents were, but once the wind got going inside that bowl there wasn't much you could do to keep warm.  I don't think I've ever actually been cold inside the Linc.  The Tue night game against the Vikes was bitter farging cold in the parking lot but inside the stadium wasn't too bad. 

Went to the Eagles/Rams Monday nighter back in Dec 04.  That was a brutal tailgate.  Single digit temps + midwest wind farging blew.  Chuggie and Thawk were there along with guys who don't post here any more like phillymic, demon, and phanatic.  Going into that stadium was the only time I've ever actually looked forward to walking into a dome.

complete opposite for me...but my linc seats are three rows from the top on an open corner...way colder than the vet for me

that said I don't know if it's being huddled around other people or having your mind on the game and not the weather but I've never been super cold inside a stadium...I judge all cold weather games by the tailgate

[ice grillin you]

[smeags]

Vet was def a colder stadium. Now where I sit I barely get any wind and I have the overhang to stop the rain. Usually it's those 1st couple games being roasted in the sun that get me.

anyone wanna put 10 or 20 bucks into a hat and guess shadys rushing yards this week....closest wins the pot
