NFL Training Camp visits?
 
Anyone go to any NFL teams training camps?
I went to the KC Chiefs training camp in St Joseph, MO on Saturday and it was an awsome experience. You are so close to the players and coaches, that you can hear every word. After practice tons of players signed autographs and chatted with fans. It was a great time!
If you are an NFL fan and have a camp within driving distance, I highly suggest checking it out.

The family and I went to the Houston Texans camp on Sunday. We didn't stay till the end as the kids were getting fussy. We also have tickets for this Friday's training camp. It was a cool experience to see the players up close, however the kids kept asking when they were going to play the game.

Though the Jets start their camp in Cortland NY, their REAL camp is so close I could plink holes in their roof with a .22 . . . if I had a .22, that is. But I've no interest in taking part in the Sanchez/Tebow circus that shall likely erupt within easy walking distance of my door.

I just hope it gets no closer than that. :r

I went to the "Draft Day" a few years ago at FedEx Field. It wasn't training camp but it was awesome. If anybody has a chance to check that out do it. I got to go down on the field and tour the locker rooms (If I wanted to wait in line for the locker room tour). I still have some blades of grass from the Redskins field. I got to meet Chris Cooley, Joe Gibbs and Gregg Williams. I was wearing a Sean Taylor jersey and I had Gregg Williams sign it, Joe Gibbs refused for some reason. Later that year Sean Taylor was killed, I will treasure that jersey.
