Empower Field Club Level

Let’s talk about the Empower Field Club Level, aka the sports fan’s version of first class on a plane—but with nachos and a better view of grown men crashing into each other. I’m not saying it’s fancy, but the last time I walked in there, a guy handed me a warm chocolate chip cookie before I even found my row. It’s like they knew I was having a rough day.

Yeah, you pay more. But so does your 401(k) regret it?

Sure, the tickets cost more than my rent for a closet in Denver. But here’s the surprising fact: the Club Level has heated seats. Yes, the Broncos’ stadium literally warms your butt during a blizzard while the poor souls in the upper deck freeze into human popsicles.

And the bathrooms? They actually have attendants who hand you paper towels. I half-expected a welcome mat and a glass of champagne, but no—just a clean sink and a guy who said, “Have a great third down, sir!” It’s the weirdest, most wonderful luxury.

What do you actually get? (Other than a warm tush)

You get in-seat food and drink service. That means you don’t miss a touchdown because you’re standing in line for a hot dog that’s been rolling around since the 1992 season. A waiter appears, you whisper “nachos” like it’s a secret password, and boom—cheese and jalapeños materialize.

The Club Level also has its own private entry. So while everyone else is doing the frantic “scan-your-phone-against-the-wind” dance, you stroll in like you own the team. It’s a deceptive power move—you might actually believe you’re the owner for a solid six seconds.

But wait—there’s a catch (of course)

Here’s the funny truth: the Club Level audience is notoriously low-energy. You see, when your nachos arrive hot and your seat is climate-controlled, you forget to yell. I once sat next to a guy who got angry at a touchdown because his beer almost tipped over. I’m not kidding—he shouted, “Watch the drink!” while 70,000 people screamed for the win.

So if you want pure, primal chaos, stay in the nosebleeds. But if you want chaos with a side of crème brûlée, the Club Level is your hangout. There’s even a cheese bar. A cheese bar! You can get a flight of cheese before the second quarter. That’s not football—that’s gourmet hostage negotiation.

The verdict: Is it worth it?

Look, if you can afford it, do it. You’ll feel like a VIP while still watching a team that sometimes forgets offense is legal. The Club Level is like wearing a tuxedo to a hot dog eating contest—it’s absurdly extra, but you’ll enjoy the memory.

One last surprising fact: the Empower Field Club Level has its own art collection. Yeah, you can stare at a painting of a mountain while a linebacker sacks the quarterback. It’s the most Denízen-denver thing ever: football with a side of culture. So grab a cheese flight, sit on your heated throne, and laugh at the frozen fans below. Or, you know, just wave at them. They won’t see you—they’re too busy shivering.
