It is not everyday you get the privilege to be bussed around a major American city and be given a private tour of a former Super Bowl champion’s stadium. Sunday at International Convention 2025, all attendees had the opportunity to pick a sightseeing track which filled their morning and afternoon. I chose the track name Challenge Accepted, where I had the chance to visit the stadium of the Denver Broncos and jump around at Urban Air Adventure Park. 

Our day started as we boarded the bus, where we headed to our first stop, the Milk Market. A popular food market in the heart of downtown Denver, we were given the choice of many different restaurants to eat at for lunch. After exploring the market, my friends and I decided on a pizza place, where we got a plain cheese pie with the voucher that was provided

Unexpectedly, our lunch was spiced up with bingo and birthday celebrations, where we joined in the already large crowd for some games. Once our time at the Milk Market concluded, we shuffled back onto the bus, where we drove to our next stop of the day, Urban Air Adventure Park. 

After we were given special socks for jumping, time flew by as we bounced until we could not bounce any longer. My friends and I first headed over to the basic trampolines, where we had fun jumping up and down and relaxing and chatting on the trampolines. Eventually, we made our way over to the dodgeball court, where we split into teams to compete against one another.

One of my favorite moments of my sightseeing experience, playing dodgeball allowed me to become closer with some of my brother Alephs, who I did not know or barely interacted with. On a team with none of my friends, this dodgeball game forced me to go out of my comfort zone, and have trust in Alephs that I did not know. Luckily, my team was victorious, and I survived for a while in the game.

After our dodgeball game concluded, we made our way back to the bus, where we traveled to what I was looking forward to most, Empower Field at MIle High, the home of the Denver Broncos. Once we arrived at the parking lot, we met up with our tour guide who took us through all of Empower Field. We first walked to one of the many suites, where we sat down and listened to our guide recite facts about the stadium and team. 

Our stops following the suite experience included checking out the CBS press box, the normal press box seating area, and walking through the below-seating tunnels leading to the field. In my opinion, the best moment of our visit to Empower Field was making our way onto the field. Standing alongside the sidelines, we had the opportunity to snap some pictures and walk around the outer track of the field.

Overall, my experience visiting Empower Field at Mile High, Urban Air Adventure Park and the Milk Market provided me with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to travel through Denver with some of my closest friends.
