San Diego Chargers vs Baltimore Ravens:  September 21, 2003


Welcome to Qualcomm Stadium in beautiful San Diego, California. This is the north side of the stadium - opposite where I entered for the Super Bowl!

The Scoreboard: Chargers vs Ravens - yep, right game!

The cheerleaders were wearing throwback uniforms. Here they line up for the Chargers' introductions.

The Chargers take the field with fireworks and cannon shots!

Opening kickoff: the Ravens, in white, kick off to the Chargers, in throwback Powder Blue uniforms!

The Chargers' return man takes the ball out from his end zone - see him crossing the goal line?

Boltman - a Chargers mascot-type-guy.

Boltman again - he is funny.

We had great seats close to the field and could see the cheerleaders really well!

The Chargers line up on offense: LaDanian Tomlinson (far right) is the running back. Drew Brees, quarterback, is under center about to take the snap.

Thadd, my brother, took this picture of me at the game. Yes, I'm wearing my Ravens' Dilfer jersey...!

The cheerleaders doing their thing in the end zone right in front of us.

With 2 minutes left in the first half, it was Baltimore 7, San Diego 3. Close game, huh?

Second half action: Ravens are on offense, Chargers on defense. Hey, the cheerleaders changed outfits! Now they look better... :)

A view of a play from scrimmage but can you see all those empty seats! WOW.

A view of the scoreboard late in the third quarter. The Ravens were in the lead 17-3.

This guy looked silly with his afro wig and body paint. I think he was a Ravens fan.

Hey! Down in front!!!

A nice view of the Ravens' sideline, endzone seats, and scoreboard.

A wide view of the whole stadium as seen from our great seats late in the 4th quarter.

A zoomed-in view of a play in which you can see Ravens' safety Ed Reed (#20) on the right and just to the left of him, #52, Ray Lewis.

The famous 1-second-left-photo of the scoreboard!

At the very end of the game, the score was Ravens 24, Chargers 10. What a great game!
