I had originally thought we would spend the day at a state park today, but after giving the radar a couple looks we decided against it. The Colts were having practice at Lucas Oil Stadium and it was open house day...translated...FREE! Decided to do this instead at last minute. Told everyone to throw their shoes on, I grabbed the camera and off we went. Pathetic thing was that no one had any Colts gear on. We got to the stadium and headed down to the field. I pulled the camera out of my purse, flipped it on and was greeted with the message that there was no memory card in the camera. AAAARRRRGGGHH!!! Fortunately I had my point and shoot with me, but I was kicking myself for the rest of the day. They had all kinds of activities going on. Aaron and I attempted to kick a field goal. Mine was closer; hooked it a bit left though.
It was really cool just to be down on the field. We found some seats in the 4th row on the 25 yard line (something we'd never be able to do for a game) and settled in. Blue the mascot came out and started shooting t-shirts with an air cannon. We caught one! Couldn't hardly believe that.
Then the players came out and started signing autographs.
When Aaron was getting a poster signed by Dwight Freeney he got put up on the giant screen. He got several other players and came SO CLOSE to getting Peyton Manning's. Peyton was starting to take his poster when someone else shoved something in his face. But Aaron got to get really close.
We watched practice and got to see the team up close. It was a blast! Rachel's favorite part...meeting the SuperFan.
GO COLTS!
