This is a funny story about how desperate sports fans can get... Carl had optometry meetings in Indianapolis in September, so we turned it into a "couple's" getaway. The Indianapolis Colts (Super Bowl winners) have just built a brand new stadium. We were dying to see what it looked like, but their first game in the stadium was Sunday night. We flew out Sunday morning, so how could we get in? There were no tours or ways to see inside. Then, we heard through the grapevine, that there were two high school football games being played in the Colts stadium Friday night. The tickets were $20 each (we've never paid THAT much for a H.S. game) but we were determined to see what this stadium looked like. We were not disappointed. The retractable roof was amazing, and the stadium was ENORMOUS. It seats 65,000 and is over 1.8 million square feet. It has the only moveable window in the NFL. We spent Friday night watching H.S. football inside this stadium and had a great time! Oh the things sports nuts will do for fun?! Carl and I make a great couple, huh?! :)
