I was born in Denver and went to the University in Denver, so this airport is extra special to me. We have clocked too many hours together.
The airport is a sight, just start on your long haul there, it's in the middle of NO WHERE! But hey, there is a blue demon horse to great you, come at night and its eyes glow red. Funny enough, I always take this as a good omen and feel "home" when I see it. Also, the security room has a huge tarp in the shape of mountains! Go to the terminals and there is a giant Mayan like structure. It's super big but homey. For reference the tornado shelters are the bathrooms, um cool!
I like to grab food at Panada Express or grab a Daz Bog(Russian for something like god but nonsensical as I remember. hey just like the real thing! or lack there of...). Then find your gate, and call a friend. I like to spend this time just passing through ,calling friends in Denver. If an extra long wait, why not have a friend meet you at the airport for a Jamba Juice or a pretzel?
The train is so fun. The mayor welcomes you to Denver. The Mile High City.
Hope you enjoy sitting Milehigh on one of your next layovers!
