Why Did the Colts Leave Baltimore? | Jon Scott, Colts Archivist


Listen Later

In this episode, I sat down with Jon Scott, the football archivist for the Indianapolis Colts, who has been with the team since 1979.

Jon shares his incredible experiences, from the secretive overnight move from Baltimore to Indianapolis in 1984 to the Colts' Super Bowl victory in 2006.

He also delves into the pivotal moments of the Colts' history, including the drafting of Peyton Manning, and reminisces about the special team dynamics and some memorable pranks.

You are going to learn about: - The untold story behind the Colts' sudden move from Baltimore to Indianapolis - How meticulous attention to detail and teamwork contributed to Colts' success - The emotional departure of Peyton Manning and its impact on the Colts' organization
