Paint Your House Orange Becomes Reality For Broncos Fans
EDGEWATER, Colo. (CBS4)- A couple of die-hard Broncos fans went to extremes to score a pair of playoff tickets to Sunday's game.
Mackenzie Cobb and her husband Nick Rocchio, winners of the Broncos "Paint Your House Orange" contest, allowed the entire interior of their home to be painted orange.
On Orange Friday, Broncos officials held a ribbon cutting ceremony at the couple's Edgewater home.
Broncos partner and real estate app Xome brought in a professional team of painters to paint every wall Broncos Orange.

"The HOA only really worries about what color the outside is," said Rocchio. "It's a nice color. It actually looks a lot better than I thought it would."
"It was really shocking at first, but now that we've had some time with it and the paint's dried, it's not so bad," said Cobb.
Their extreme Broncos spirit scored them a pair of tickets to Sunday's playoff game.
"First time going to a Broncos game for me," said Cobb.
Ring of Famer Billy Thompson, Miles the Mascot, and Broncos cheerleaders also made a surprise visit to the couple's very orange home.
Cobb and Rocchio said that after playoff season, they might be repainting, but they'll leave the orange on at least one wall as an accent.
