The Denver Broncos held the inaugural “Taste of the Broncos” event at Mile High Tuesday night, bringing fans into the stadium to interact with players, listen to live music and “sample food and drink from 30 Colorado restaurants.”

And to cap off the sold out event, several Broncos players, including quarterback Peyton Manning, conducted the Colorado Symphony to their alma mater’s fight songs.
As the grand finale, Manning led the symphony in Tennessee’s “Rocky Top.”
Additionally, Chris Harris Jr. and Steven Johnson led the symphony in a rendition of Kansas’ fight song, while Montee Ball (Wisconsin), David Bruton Jr. and Ryan Harris (Notre Dame) and Von Miller (Texas A&M) helped with versions of their own school’s songs.
Here’s a taste of “I’m a Jayhawk,” led by Harris and Johnson.
Proceeds from the event benefited the Food Bank of the Rockies.
