Saw this link on a DWF site but it has a lot of cool stuff on the list from the old days.

Of all the old Colts stuff that stood out to me on the list was this...

1958 NFL Championship Game Goalpost

I actually have a piece of this goal post. My Grandfather was a member of a "Colts Corral" and they rented out a whole car of a train to go to NY for the '58 CS game. At the end they all rushed the field and they got a chunk of it and split it up between them. My Grandfather had his chunk mounted and framed with a plaque and a picture of Johnny U. It currently resides in my Dad's attic.

That's very cool Bmore Dan. I wish I was around back than and I am sure the NFL was much more enjoyable to watch.
