Spent Sunday hitting two of Indy’s premiere attractions…the Indianapolis Museum of Art on Sunday afternoon. And then wrapped up the weekend watching the first Colts game (preseason) at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Windows and roof open...and a very big flag!

The game was forgettable (who wants to remember a thrashing like that?) But the opening night was memorable.

The highlight?

No question, watching the huge roof and the windows open up!

Several RTV 6 staffers attended the opening night. We compared notes…the fans needed this preseason game as well.

Fans spent a lot of time walking around, trying to find how to get to the different levels in the stadium. Several of us made a point to take the escalators to the Bud Zone, high up in the stadium. But then couldn’t find a way DOWN. (Even some of the stadium workers were a little puzzled on how to get around.)

It was a fun night. Too bad the Colts didn’t open up as smoothly as the Stadium roof and window. 

But it is preseason. For the Colts and the fans.
