INDIANAPOLIS — It is a basketball town, after all.

Raucous Jets fans took over Indiana’s sleepy capital city this weekend, turning bars and hotel lobbies green with envy in preparation for a playoff showdown to keep their Super Bowl dreams alive.

Despite the home field advantage, Indianapolis Colts fans were outnumbered – and shouted down – in more than a few local venues including a downtown hotel where public computers were adorned with Jets screensavers.

“I can’t stand Jets fans,” said one barfly in a Peyton Manning jersey. “They’re so obnoxious.”

The article is total BS. I was in downtown Indy last night in many venues. There were certainly some Jets fans but they were outnumbered 5-1 in all the top Indy sports bars.

A year or two ago the Seattle Seahawks played at Green Bay (a Wild Card game I think). While Seattle lost that game, and their playoff hopes, I was struck by interviews with Seattle fans who traveled to Green Bay about how gracious and hospitable the Green Bay fans were at the stadium. Seattle people all told of the way the GB folk invited them to their tailgate parties, and offered to make them hot dogs & hamburgers etc. All the Seattle fans expressed disappointment about the loss of course, but I was struck with how many had such praise for the fans in Green Bay. Not germane to this thread of course, but it reminded me.
