London calling: Romi Bean reports on Denver Broncos game in the UK

One of the biggest Broncos fans traveled to London for the big game- Denver Mayor Michael Hancock. 

He said it isn't just about cheering on the team, but also business and promotion of the Mile High City across the pond. 

"We're working on a couple of direct flights that we want to land with Air Europe before I leave office. And of course, being a Broncos fan, this is no greater way to market our city, our state, and our region than to be here and see our team on the international stage," said Hancock. 

It looked like a tailgate party outside of Mile High, but instead, dozens of fans from Colorado and around the world descended on a bar in London to kick off festivities around the UK.

"I wanted to celebrate the Broncos season. And I know there are a lot of naysayers this year. A lot of people are down. But I wear huge orange color glasses, I view the world through that prism, and I wanted to be here on a special day. I wanted to be at Wembly (Stadium). I wanted to see my team do something special," said one fan who made the trip from Colorado.

Some of the Bronco's more ardent fans were on hand as the team and European fan clubs hosted an event at the Barrowboy and Banker bar. Steve Atwater, Miles the mascot and cheerleaders were entertaining the crowds that came from all over to get ready for this weekend's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

"It's Broncos world, it's not just Broncos Country anymore," said another fan from Colorado. 

Surprisingly, more than you might think!

Members of the Broncos staff volunteered at a food kitchen in London.

Damani Leech spent the past four years as chief operating officer of NFL International, and he was excited to talk to Romi Bean and other reporters in London this week.
