Any other Golden Buff Marching Band members remember this game? 🤣
October 15, 1984
❄️Monday Night Blizzard❄️
As a mid-autumn Monday night whiteout grips Mile High, the Broncos score fumble return touchdowns on the first two plays from scrimmage, leading to a 17-14 victory over the Packers.
At 37 seconds, it stands as the fastest 14 points to begin a game in the history of Monday Night Football.
One of MNF's most unforgettable scenes

Honored to have support from Republicans and former Republicans like former Congressman Ken Buck and former Speaker Russ George. As Buck said, I have the experience and character to serve Colorado well; and as George said, I am committed to serving all of Colorado.

From today: No fan Wi-Fi in seating bowl at Northwestern's New Ryan Field

@NewRyanField is built with cutting edge 5G cellular performance providing some of the fastest per fan wireless speeds of any pro or college stadium in the US
@Verizon speeds were white hot at the opening game: 30x - 50x stadium wifi speeds

If you are a T-Mobile or AT&T customer, this is why your cell service wasn't working last week at the @NewRyanField home opener.
Not sure if this account is verified but... if this is correct it addresses the poor connectivity some fans found at last week's home opener for @NewRyanField at Northwestern. We have emails in asking if the following post's info is correct, that there is no fan-facing Wi-Fi.
@NewRyanField invested heavily to create the fastest mobile internet speeds of any college football stadium
This next generation 5G system is enabling internet speeds 30x-50x faster than stadium wifi even with a full stadium
Verizon chose to fully invest & integrate into it while also adding additional capabilities for their customers
AT&T & T-Mobile haven't yet chosen to do the work but are expected to do so in early 2027

One clarification: both AT&T and T-Mobile have signed agreements enabling them to support their customers within new Ryan Field. It is just a matter of when they decide to do the work
AT&T has said they will do it in early 2027.
T-Mobile hasn't committed to a date yet

What we didn't know before we built this stadium:
Your cell coverage in a stadium is not based on the big antennas we all see.
Stadiums need to build out their own network of mini-antennas throughout the stadium (called a Distributed Antenna System or DAS) to effectively handle the massive number of concurrent users in a stadium setting
@NewRyanField DAS system is unsurpassed in it's capabilities and will be another area where new Ryan Field breaks away from the pack

The choice was to either go with a 30x-50x faster next gen 5G system or a current gen wifi that would be out of date within the next year or two
There is fan wifi available for mission critical uses (eg gates) but internet speed in the bowl is based on your carrier for now

A group of STL students from McCluer North High School recently went behind the scenes at Energizer Park to learn about all the technology powered by Cisco that makes our state-of-the-art matchday experience possible.
Students heard from the front office and learned about the WiFi network, the CITY App, IPTV, digital signage, cashless walkout markets and F&B POS systems and player data tracking. This program not only brings more kids into the CITY universe, it also shows them a world of possibilities when it comes to careers in sport and technology.

🏈 Great game days don't start at kickoff. They start the moment fans arrive on campus.
As college stadiums evolve into year-round destinations, campus security leaders are being challenged to create environments that feel both secure and welcoming. In this new blog, John Baier, our VP of Sports & Entertainment, explores how @NU_Sports' @NewRyanField reflects a broader shift in higher education: connecting safety, operations, and fan experience into a unified strategy.
