So one day Dave, Chris, John, and Brandon went to the trainyard…
OMG!!! Noooooooooooooo. Dave, train, stairs! :’(
and there’s a pole in the background lol
I’d say something witty, but all I got is…
Billfred! Caption Contest hopper!
Whoa. Definitely confirms all the train related conspiracy theories.
After the game hint came out, I was inspired to do more research and to hear what others had to say. This picture only reinforces my Theory, which I shall summarize and ask for critiques on:
After the Delphi pack mirrored the game hint image and reverse-image searched it, the person in question came about. I think it would be a fair assumption that the person in the image is Eva Boyd (AKA Little EVA). She was a singer, and a fairly good one at that! One of her hit songs turned out to be “The Loco-Motion”.
This conspicuous and apparently non-related picture includes a Mr. Dave Lavery. We all know that Dave, being the conspirator he is, has a hand in much of this mischief. Odds are (In my probably incorrect opinion) that these two instances of trains and or Loco-Motion leads us down a path, or shall I say a rail-road, which will in turn bring us to kickoff 
Was this recently taken? When Dave knew the game? If yes we will be seeing a train game if no, Jan. 8th can’t come sooner.
Pretty sure Dave knows the game when it’s designed. 
Did he know of the game during that picture? (correction lessen to what I mean not what I say)
Or he could just be messing with us…
just proves those guys have loco-motives
So one day John was playing with Photoshop…
Thats quite puny! 
Nope, it’s a real picture.
Yay, another red herring for them to mess with us, or is this supposed to be another hint that they won’t admit to? Either way, I am going to be over-analyzing this just as I did with the last picture. Now I have something to do on the 8 hours of driving I have left today.
I’m thinking this is just Mr. JVN having a bit of fun with the people desperate for something to interpret.
It’s true. I’ve seen this picture before.
Wow traffic cones;)
I noticed them as well…
Also, I bet Dave had a series of pictures setup so based on what we started guessing on, then that’s what he would post… Oh I’m on to you…
Dave is wearing what appears to be a Lynyrd Skynyrd t-shirt…I’m sure he intended this to mean something. I think I’ll go grab a plate of mashed potatoes and try to figure it all out now.
Also, what is written on that piece of paper Chris is holding? Probably the password to the encrypted game rules.
JVN:
Why.
