DENVER (AP) — Relatives of a Denver Broncos fan who disappeared during last week’s game are wondering how a man with no known health or personal problems could seem to vanish without a trace.
Family and friends of Paul Kitterman, 53, have been searching for him since Thursday night’s matchup with the San Diego Chargers at Sports Authority Field.
Police said no new information about his whereabouts emerged Tuesday.
Kitterman stepson, Jarod Tonneson, said he has not been seen since he left his seat to meet friends during halftime. Tonneson filed a missing-persons report with Denver police, scoured the sprawling stadium, called local hospitals and detox centers, and taped fliers around the city.
“We just don’t know what else to do,” Tonneson told The Associated Press on Monday. “Paul is a simple guy, he doesn’t like technology, he doesn’t get into drama. He’s just an easygoing guy.”
The two went to the game with two of their friends after a day spent working and hunting at another friend’s ranch in Kremmling, a small town in the mountains of northern Colorado.
Kitterman and Tonneson, both construction workers, hurriedly made the 100-mile trip to the stadium after a friend offered tickets. It was Kitterman’s first time there. In their haste, Kitterman forgot his cellphone and took no credit cards and very little cash.
Still, Kitterman had memorized his friends’ phone numbers and would have found ways to reach out if he wanted to leave. He had four or five beers in the course of a four-hour span — not enough to become disoriented, Tonneson said.
Denver police spokesman Sonny Jackson said detectives don’t suspect foul play, but he would not elaborate. The department was trying to support the family in their search, Jackson said.
“They just don’t seem too worried about it, being that he is a grown man,” Tonneson said of police.
Police said a man’s body was found close to Interstate 25 near the stadium on Tuesday but they do not believe it is Kitterman.
His parents live in Arizona and his siblings in Missouri, but Kitterman has few contacts in the Denver area, Tonneson said.
“He wouldn’t just take off, you know?” Tonneson said. “He wouldn’t leave me there.”

A play by play is in this story:
http://www.cnn.com/2014/10/28/us/missing-denver-broncos-fan/index.html?sr=sharebar_twitter
So the guy is with his dad outside the bathroom. It's halftime, meaning the line to take a leak was probably pretty damn long. Guy's dad says he will wait for his son outside the bathroom. When the guy finally comes out, his dad is nowhere to be found.
The surveillance video will be critical. As soon as the son makes his way into the bathroom and out of sight, does the dad immediately turn away and start walking like he has a purpose? I can't imagine why anyone would have wanted to start a fight or do him wrong considering he's an out of town bumpkin who seemed to keep to himself. Besides, there are obviously way too many witnesses inside the stadium to instigate anything...plus another fan claims to have seen the dad inside the stadium in the third quarter. If the guy wanted to take off, I'd guess he would have done so by then.
Just a really fucked story that doesn't add up on so many levels.
Edit: Never mind if they found him. Would be curious what the hell he was doing...

Something doesn't add up here. The guy was supposed to be a family-first super dad, but he suddenly decided to leave his son without saying a word because he was cold? Plus with all the pictures of him fishing, riding a horse, etc...he seems like he's an avid outdoorsman.
Not to mention, I'm sure the K-Mart 100 miles away from the stadium was not the closest warm place he could have found. And he never bothered to make contact with his family four days after leaving.
Not buying it. Maybe this guy has some kind of schizo condition, which would explain a lot...
