Yesterday we went to an Indianapolis Colts game. I'd mention the competition but it wasn't really competition, sorry Seattle. Seattle was hurt in critical positions and the Colts were on fire. Since the game was rarely close I noticed something else, official sponsors. Apparently the Colts have official sponsors for everything.

Verizon - Official WIRELESS service provider (leaving room for a wired service provider)
Toyota - Official vehicle of the Indianapolis Colts
Papa John's - Official Pizza of the Indianapolis Colts
Meijer - Official Supercenter of the Indianapolis Colts (not grocery store...supercenter)
Speedway - Official convenience store of the Colts (Not kidding)
Ray's Trash - Official waste service of the Colts
and many, many more

I'd like to offer the Colts a few more products to endorse -
Lenscrafters - Official eyeglasses of the Indianapolis Colts (for the referees)
Vagisil - Official feminine itch product of the Indianapolis Colts
Mucinex - Official expectorant and cough suppressant for the Indianapolis Colts.

I understand the Colts need to make money on advertising but sometimes it's too much. Here are a few pictures of the game not the advertisers.






Me, Tina, Kelly and Scott at their house before the game. Oh yeah there is one more picture that is pretty funny. Reggie Wayne did a short route for a touchdown and I "thought" that I captured the picture. Apparently I didn't thanks to the big headed fellow in front of me
