Really one game a year is awesome just to be in the atmosphere...but the other 16 weeks of the season, I can see why people stay home. For the cost of season tickets, parking, and some concession items...you can buy those T.V's, Sunday ticket, an Ipad, and still have money left over.
Tonights game looks to be a good matchup, but from what I rember of these Thursday season openers....expect the defences to have their way tonight. I think Peyton Manning shredding the Saints on a Thursday to open the 2008 season is about the only big offensive performance I can remember in the past 5 years.
