    Do you have an unpopular opinion about the Colts? If so, what is it?

    I've always admired the Baltimore fans that chose to stick with the Colts.   When I was a kid my dad and I sat in a half empty stadium in the Hoosier dome.  We had season tickets and never sat in our seats because there were better seats unfilled.  Indiana didn't really embrace colts football until the 94 run with Harbaugh.   Then Peyton brought the masses.   When were winning,  we love them,  when they aren't we have better things to do.   It's the same with every team in Indiana except Notre Dame football and Indiana basketball.   Fandom here is nothing like a lot of great sports towns.   Look at the Browns fans, so much disappointment yet they are as rabid as they come.   Oh well,   I'll root for my team win or lose

    If you judge a teams fan base by the games being sold out, maybe we aren't so good. I never had trouble getting tickets to 2-4 games a season in the 90's. 

    I can't remember if it was 99, or 2000, I made sure to be in line at the Dome at 5;30 am first day of sales, because Ticketmaster couldn't start selling tickets until 11 or noon. Still was able ti get 30 yard line upper deck seats 12 rows up or so for two games, even though it was a hour after Ticketmaster had opened.

    As time went on I could still get tickets, but sometimes had to settle for the nose bleed, or $35 corner seats, but at least we were there.

    After the Colts won the Superbowl, I couldn't get anything for face Value for several years.

    This year I bought Saints game tickets off the Colts website 3 games in to the season. Nose bleed was all that was available, So I guess we have a lot of rabid fans, but some fair weather as well.

    Anyone else that I failed to mention...   

    I don't think NFL owners and GMs believe the ol third times the charm saying, so I will say he's done as a head coach.

    His only chance is with the Pats. Maybe Edelman, Gronk, and Brady come out of retirement at age 50 or so, and demand he be their head coach.

    Dunk, that would be amazing. To be honest it's been on my radar for a few years but it's probably a once in a lifetime trip for me so I'm holding out a little to get the best team possible. I personally rate Steichen quite high and i love the hype around Richardson so i can see the trip coming sooner rather than later

    I don't go to many games anymore, Gone to one this year and got tix for the Bucs game later this month. If not me I am sure someone on here would be glad to have you at a tailgate. I'm sure you will know way in advance, so possible we could figure something out.

    Born & live in Scotland. As many have said before me, in the UK when i was growing up there wasn't much hype around the NFL and it wasn't until my late teens i watched a few games and got right into it. I even ended up playing amateur football in the UK for a few years as a Nose Tackle.

     

    Might be funny to a few but to be honest the reason i chose a liking to the colts was playing Madden around 2004/05 with friends and when asked what team i'd like to be I for reasons unknown to me chose the colts, when i eventually did end up interested in the NFL my gut stayed with me and i ended up following the colts.

     

    Every year my level of "fandem" grows

     

    Travelled to London in 2016 to see the Colts which was amazing and hopefully in 2024 or 2025 I'll travel to Indianapolis to see a game

    I love it Man. Cool that you got to play football in Europe, and see the Colts play live there. Post on here if you do head over for a game and I'm sure me or someone will hook you up with a tailgate so you can experience the game as a lot of us get to.
