Super kilted

May I be the first to say "GO COLTS!!!!!!!!!", and to mention the fact that I won fifty dollars on that game. Nintendo Wii here I come.

As one of the few Aussies who were interested in the SuperBowl, I enjoyed the game a lot!

Especially since I was barracking for the Colts (the wife was born in Indiana).

My apologies to the Bears fans.

...words cannot express...

Guid on Indianapolis...certainly can't begrudge them the win.

The only comment that I will indulge myself in is based on the one challenge that Indianapolis lodged about there being more than 11 Bears players on the field during a play...the way they were playing we were wondering if there were less than 11 men on the field.

And one of the commentators used the word "scrum" at one point in the game...another Super Bowl first...the use of the word "scrum"!

The only thing I had against the scrum comment was that the announcer used in reference to Aussie Rules Football and not Rugby. It's been a long time since I've watched Footie from Australia but I always associate scrum with Rugby.

All in all, it was a sloppy game but the better team won anyway.

Where was she from? There are a few Hoosiers on this forum.

Where I stay, Indianapolis is about 55 miles to the South and Chicago is about 120 miles to the North-West, so each team had a lot of fans in this area.

We long-suffering Bears fans were rooting for the Monsters of the Midway when the Colts were still in Baltimore.

As a former Hoosier (and resident of Lafayette and South Bend) I have to agree - the Colts (to me) will always belong in Baltimore (and the Ravens with Edgar Allen Poe).

Hmmm, that's going to be me, trying to take this one off-topic again.

Tell me about your time in Lafayette. I've not been here long, myself. Only a touch over 52 years.
