Colts’ mascot Blue wins NFL Mascot of the Year
By Ryan Stano
The Colts can add another award to their mantle, as their mascot is taking one home for them.
When you go to NFL games, the teams always have someone trying to pump up the crowd. Whether it’s cheerleaders or mascots, everyone is getting their team pumped. The Colts just so happen to have the best mascot in the league though.
Blue, their mascot, was named the NFL’s Mascot of the Year. While not every team has a mascot, it’s still impressive for Blue’s team spirit to be recognized. The Colts now have an award winning mascot, so that’s something cool for the organization.
Blue is typically acting zany on the sidelines of games and interacting with young kids in the stands. Having someone like that engaging the fanbase is very important. Having someone do it at the level that he does it is a testament to the Colts’ marketing department.
The Colts have had a good year when it comes to winning awards. They have had multiple players win awards, and their GM was named Executive of the Year as well. 2018 was a very successful season, and it’s good to see the rest of the league recognize that.
The key now for them is to keep 2019 just as successful, if not more. They have to keep raising the bar of what they can do. They won’t stop until they win a championship. If last season’s progress is any indication, they might be winning one of those sooner than you think.
