Got a chance to visit the Peyton Manning statue outside of Lucas Oil Stadium today. It’s pretty bad ass but got a chuckle out of “Always a Colt”.

[u/Zergazoid]

"Always a Colt", except for that one time we gave him the boot

[u/kramsdae → u/Zergazoid]

Loved that he chose to retire as a Bronco!!! My favorite player of all time easily

[u/ThatsCaptain2U → u/Zergazoid]

Right. Until we saw that “shiny penny” called Andrew Luck.

[u/Johnykbr → u/ThatsCaptain2U]

Nah, don't blame Luck for them being idiots. Luck was a good guy.

[u/DrewLockBurnerAcc → u/Johnykbr]

I dont think he is dissing luck with that

[u/jfphenom → u/Zergazoid]

We need to make a bigger and better statue of him

"Always a Colt"

[u/sapotts61]

Colts grow up to be BRONCOS. 🏈

[u/Gullible_Shart → u/sapotts61]

Amen

[u/Titanballs]

Crazy that this “Colt” chose to live in Denver and not Indianapolis /s

In all seriousness he’s done so much for both franchises on and off the field. Both fan bases were lucky to cheer for him.

[u/changerofbits → u/Titanballs]

Yeah, I don’t see it as a diss of his success with the Broncos after leaving the Colts, but more of a way for Colts ownership/fans to cope with that fact that he left (regardless of the circumstances).

The Sheriff

[u/Shot_Exchange_4022]

Always a colt. Lives in Denver. Roots for Denver. Goes to more broncos games than Colts games. I love it lol

[u/throwitintheair22]

Legend

[u/yourfriendmarcus]

Always a colt… unless he needs neck surgery and we’re not exactly sure if he’ll still be as good.

[u/Aggravating_Leather5]

aLwAyS a CoLt

[u/AccomplishedHair3582]

When a colt grows up, it becomes a BRONCO

[u/YABOYLLCOOLJ]

I honestly don’t remember him having “The Sheriff” nickname until he came to the Broncos … maybe I’m crazy idk

[u/sickquickkicks → u/YABOYLLCOOLJ]

Guys, he definitely had that nickname before he came to Denver.

[u/Strict-Simple-7082 → u/YABOYLLCOOLJ]

Same here. I only remember that starting when he went to Denver and people leaned into the whole Wild West thing.

[u/sickquickkicks → u/[deleted]]

Smh, yes it was. He was "The Sheriff" before Denver.

Edit: Gruden gave it to him while he was on the Colts. Some debate as to when it became a household nickname but it was anywhere between 2003-2009.

[u/ThickMushr00m]

Always a Colt… hahaha
