Family Night at the stadium is tonight
Posted August 1st, 2008 by Dan
At 7 p.m., the Browns are holding their annual Family Night extravaganza at Cleveland Browns stadium. By extravaganza, I mean glorified evening training camp. The cost is $5. Find more information on the event here.
There will be nothing here that you can't see by going to Berea, but it could be a fun time if you have kids. The only thing I'd really say to do is watch the rookies as they come onto the field for the first time. Sometimes they'll show how awe-inspiring it is to finally make it onto NFL grass. Especially watch outside linebacker Alex Hall for this. He comes from tiny St. Augustine, so this should be some culture shock.
Notes…
Linebacker Antwan Peek is expected to miss the remainder of training camp with an injured knee and all preseason games after having arthroscopic surgery on his knee.
Don Banks, the very good football writer for Sports Illustrated, was at Browns camp. He talked with Braylon Edwards a lot. Check it out.
Even if you're not a Zips fan, try to make your way over to meet the team night Aug. 10. It's always a fun way to meet the players and chat it up with them for a bit. Just like Family Night, if you have kids, this is great.
