Colts Country, Buckle Up: Your Guide to Indianapolis Kickoff Times (Because Adulting is Hard)
Let's face it, folks, keeping track of the NFL schedule can feel like juggling flaming chainsaws while reciting Shakespeare. Fear not, fellow Colts fans! This handy guide will ensure you never miss Carson Wentz unleash that glorious arm (...hopefully more often than not).
Preseason Pandemonium:
The wait is almost over! The Colts kick off their exhibition season on Sunday, August 11th, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time (that's 10:30 PM IST for our international Colts comrades). Mark your calendars, fire up the grills, and prepare for a summer filled with flying pigskins and hopefully, a whole lot of wins!
Here's a sneak peek at the rest of the preseason schedule:
Tip: Highlight what feels important.
- Week 2: Colts vs. Arizona Cardinals - Saturday, August 17th, at 4:00 PM PDT (that's a very early Sunday morning, August 18th, at 4:30 AM IST for our night owls)
- Week 3: Cincinnati Bengals vs. Colts - Thursday, August 22nd, at 5:00 PM PDT (another early one, folks - 5:30 AM IST on Friday, August 23rd)
Regular Season Rumble:
Now, for the real deal! The Colts' regular season kicks off on Sunday, September 8th, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time (10:30 PM IST). Get ready to dust off your jerseys and unleash your inner Colts fanatic every Sunday (mostly) for the rest of the year.
Pro Tip: Download the Colts app to get the full schedule, gameday updates, and exclusive content. You won't regret it (unless maybe the other team wins, but let's not dwell on that).
Tip: Look out for transitions like ‘however’ or ‘but’.
Bonus: How to Sound Like a Seasoned Colts Fan (Even if You're New to the Game):
- Master the Roar: Every true Colts fan knows the power of the Indianapolis crowd. Practice your best "Roooooooooar!" in the shower (just don't scare the neighbors).
- Learn the Lingo: Calling Andrew Luck "The Franchise" is a surefire way to date yourself. These days, it's all about Wentz's "gunslinger" mentality and Jonathan Taylor's "dancing shoes."
- Embrace the Blue: There's a reason the horseshoe is blue. Wear your Colts colors with pride, even if it clashes spectacularly with your living room decor.
