Default Denver Travel Advice

Hey team, I'm in Denver for a couple days next week. Any good things to do / places to see / restaurants to eat at while there?

Yup, D'Corazon in Lodo, a hole-in-the-wall kind of Mexican spot, but food is amazing. Their margaritas hit the spot.

See a Rockies game.

Do not eat the edibles. You will lose.

BBQ is surprisingly pretty good there.

Go to a Rockies game.

Eat the edibles. Anything you do after that will be great.

I'm going in November myself to see Brady v. Manning on Sunday Night Football. Thanks for the thread, I'll monitor it.

Thanks for the tips so far!

So far I bought a ticket to a Rockies game, 10 rows behind the Rockies dugout. Only $22, since it was a Coors Light special or something.

I'm also definitely going to check out a 1Up location and eat Mexican food.

Hmmm. Muta is checking out the arena, stadium, LODO district. Suspicious I am.

If you get the chance, roadie to Colorado Springs for some great mountain biking.

Go see a concert a red rocks amphitheater. Even if you don't like whoever is playing. It's one of the most unique concert venues you will ever go to. It's in Morrison, which is a suburb of Denver.

I second that. Saw Willie Nelson there and it was a great place to see a concert.
