My friend is moving to my house, using Mayflower Transit. The truck will arrive at my house March 28th.
Robert Irsay was usually drunk by noon time. He took a once great franchise, and ran it into the ground. The Colys didn't become good again until after he died.
Well, they made the AFC championship game in 1995
Cry some more for us They're as good now as they ever were
The Baltimore Stars moved to the old Colts Complex after the USFL's Lawsuit, Mayflower moved them, but mostly the players got their gear for tryouts elsewhere.
Johnny Unitas was so livid with the way the move went down that he cut ties with the Colts and told the Pro Football Hall of Fame not to display any Colts memorabilia unless they were specifically Baltimore Colts. Also many people in Maryland, particularly here in Baltimore boycotted the Mayflower Moving Company after that move. It wouldn't be unusual to see giving Mayflower drivers the bird.
The Colts have now played in Indianapolis longer than they did in Baltimore.
Yes, now that you mentioned it!!!
but the colt's time in baltimore will always have a rich history than the one in indianapolis.
Somehow the Colts were STILL more successful in Baltimore than they have ever been in Indy despite that 😂
And hopefully they suck in perpetuity.
And the name still makes zero sense and never will for Indy. The name Colts is from the Baltimore horse farms and the 150 years running of the Preakness Stakes in Baltimore.
They should have left the Colts name and taken the franchise. At least the Browns left their history in Cleveland when they left for Baltimore.
Nevermore...
That was an out of court settlement between Art Modell and the City of Cleveland to get out of the last year of his lease.
Biltmore Colts 😮
The Hoosier/RCA Dome looked like any other NFL venue in the 1980s and 1990s..The Colts were rumored or might move to LA in the early 2000s..Peyton Manning got the Colts to win a Super Bowl championship in 2006 season..The RCA Dome was last used for the Colts in 2007..Lucas Oil Stadium opened in 2008, and that became more of a marketable stadium to host other events..LOS was the house that Peyton built, and that is true..Anyway, Lucas Oil Stadium has hosted multiple NCAA Final Fours, one Super Bowl, B1G football championships, B1G basketball tournament, NCAA Tournament games, soccer match, NCAA lacrosse, and the college football championship..🏈💺🏀⚽🥅🏙
In 2019 they still are thrilled they stole another city's team
Michael Leroy Is that right?
And so is Baltimore.
You can say the same thing about Baltimore since they got the old Browns Team? So no room to complain!
@@michaelhogg324 Exactly. I have a friend who's from Indy and he thinks that Baltimore needs to let it go.
@@mach6893 really the only ones who haven't are those Baltimore fans over the age of 45, I've got friends who are in thier mid 20s- early 30s that live in Baltimore and Maryland and are die hard Ravens fans, they don't get it because they recognize without the Browns relocating and renaming they wouldn't have a team of 'thier own'.
The Colts have played longer in Indy at this point than they did in Baltimore, it's ridiculous, and many Ravens fans I know too will contend that the Ravens are superior to the Colts and despite a 12 or 13 yr drought that they suffered without a team that they came out ahead in the long run, 2 Super Bowl Championships in 25 yrs vs 1 for Indy's 35 yrs. Also the Colts coming to Indy helped bring more attention to it as a city, seems almost to be a wash at this point
Indy based Mayflower? There you go!
Looking back on it, Baltimore Deserved to Lose the Colts, and why, the city of Baltimore no longer supported the team, and also, because Baltimore was stupid enough not to build a new stadium for the Colts, no wonder they moved to Indianapolis!!!
@@adamdorgant9454 Besides, Baltimore got a team back by stealing a team from another city. Not just any city, but Cleveland of all cities.
Hogans Mayflower.
@@adamdorgant9454 The Emmint Domain Clause forced Irsays hand.
@@rockvilleraven And shortly after that, moved the Colts to Indianapolis in the Middle of the night on March 28, 1984!!!
Reading about it now, Baltimore Deserved to Lose the Colts, and why, The City of Baltimore no longer supported the team, and also, Because Baltimore was Stupid enough not to build a new stadium for the Colts!!!!
No, the Baltimore fans no longer supported Bob Irsay. Maybe one day Indianapolis will deserve to lose their football team.
@@johnclayton5062 it'll probably not going to happen for a very long time.
@@1990Thunderbolt You’re right about that!!!!
