Who is the Indianapolis Colts' Most Spirited Sidekick? (Hint: It's Not Andrew Luck... Anymore)
The Indianapolis Colts are known for their horseshoe, their unwavering fans (the "Hoosier Nation"), and their explosive offense (at least, since Andrew Luck hung up his cleats). But there's another equally important member of the Colts' crew who deserves some recognition: their mascot, the one and only Blue.

Blue: More Than Just a Guy in a Horse Costume (Okay, Maybe That's Exactly What He Is)
Yes, Blue is a giant, blue horse. But he's no one-trick pony (or should we say, one-trick horse?). This energetic equine is a full-fledged Colts ambassador, hyping up the crowd at games, high-fiving fans young and old, and even busting a move or two during halftime shows. We're not sure how he does it all in that sweaty horse suit under the Indiana sun, but hey, that's the magic of mascots, right?
Here are some of Blue's greatest hits (besides that time he beat Boomer the Pacers mascot in a go-kart race):
QuickTip: Stop scrolling, read carefully here.
- Skydiving for his debut: Blue wasn't messing around when he joined the team in 2006. He literally parachuted into his first game, setting the bar high (or should we say, low?) for mascot entrances ever since.
- International man of mystery: Blue has some serious travel cred. He's toured with the military in Japan and Hawaii, and even showed off his moves at the Pro Bowl. This mascot clearly doesn't shy away from a good adventure.
Fun Fact: Blue Isn't Just Blue
While Blue's fur is undeniably cerulean, his official name is a bit more...descriptive. Brace yourselves: his full title is "Blue, the Indianapolis Colts Mascot." Mind blown, right?

Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
