If you’ve been to a Denver Broncos game over the past half century, you’ll know it’s rare to spot an empty seat.

When fans clamber into Mile High Stadium on Sunday to watch their beloved Broncos take on the Houston Texans, it will mark the 400th consecutive sellout in Denver, extending the longest streak in the NFL.

The remarkable run dates back to 1970, when the Broncos entered the NFL after a decade in the American Football League. That means the Broncos’ have sold out every home game as a member of the NFL.

apountry, indeed.
