Thursday & Invesco Field

The sign on the side of the stadium greeted us as we arrived by bus for the big event: Obama's acceptance speech.



Journalists, TV cameras, photographers, all lined up right behind our Nebraska delegation. Notice the bald guy on the far left? That's Biff Henderson from The Late Show with David Letterman.



My attempt at panoramic (didn't splice together too well) this was the row of TV networks lined up right by where the Nebraska delegation was seated.



Me with Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. I'm sure Lee Terry and Adrian Smith are wondering what we discussed. My lips are sealed! Let's just say Rep. Jackson was thrilled to meet an active Democrat from Nebraska.



Oscar Winner Jennifer Hudson sings the national anthem. Probably the best I've heard it performed in a very long time!



ABC's George Stephanopoulos.



Sheryl Crow performs for the growing crowd.



Our delegations sign.



CBS's Bob Schieffer - he and his crew were actually caught dancing several times during the music performances!



What an amazing scene!



Nebraska delegates Robyn Quarles and Logan Dobbs, with Joy Philippi right behind them.



New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson addresses the crowd at Invesco.



NBC's Brian Williams, Tom Brokaw and Chuck Todd.



The amazing Stevie Wonder performs for the crowd. He rocked the stadium!


CNN's Anderson Cooper came over by the Nebraska Delegation and met some of the delegates.



So did Democratic Pundit with CNN, Donna Brazile.



Vice President Al Gore addresses the stadium and really got everyone excited!



Over 2 dozen former Generals came on stage to endorse Barack Obama. The 4th from the right is General (and former NATO Supreme Commander) Wesley Clark.



Another view of the huge crowd as Senator Joe Biden took the stage.

If you watched this on TV, you would have seen shots that seemed to pan and more out. This was the camera that caught those shots. It was funny to see it zipping all over above our heads.



The crowd greeting the next President of the United States, Barack Obama.



Obama accepts our nomination.



This photo was taken by our own Lisa Olivares, who got the privilege of sitting in the front. We were so proud of her!
