BRONCOS WIVES TACKLE COST OF NEW STADIUM WITH CFANS

          Wives of Broncos players and personnel, along with
     Citizens for a New Stadium (CFANS), "lunched with 275 women"
     at Mile High Stadium "to focus on the team's charitable
     contributions to the city," but also to campaign for the
     team's upcoming stadium referendum, according to Peggy Lowe
     of the DENVER POST.  Organizers hoped for 500 attendees to
     the invitation-only event, called "A Women's Town Hall: Why
     We All Win," where those in attendance could have their
     picture taken with the Lombardi Trophy.  Broncos Owner Pat
     Bowlen's wife, Annabel, discussed the upcoming vote: "This
     isn't about making Pat and I richer. ... If we wanted to be
     richer, we could go to Los Angeles and have blown out of
     here a long time ago and be 10 times richer." Janet Elway,
     Peggy and Mike Shanahan and Amy Van Dyken were also at the
     event.  Lowe reported that Citizens Opposing the Stadium Tax
     (COST), have also been targeting female voters by attending
     youth soccer games (DENVER POST, 10/14).
