COUPLE WHO MET WHILE WATCHING COLTS GAME FEATURED ON “TOGETHER WE MAKE FOOTBALL” TOMORROW MORNING ON TODAY
Indianapolis Colts Host New England Patriots on Sunday Night Football
STAMFORD, Conn. – November 13, 2014 – Tomorrow’s “Together We Make Football” segment on TODAY, narrated by NBC Sports Group’s Josh Elliott, tells the story of Mindy and Chad, and how their love for the Indianapolis Colts brought them together. The segment will air between 8 and 9 a.m. ET on TODAY.
In 2009, Mindy met her future husband, Chad, after moving 1,200 miles from her home in Indiana to Denver Broncos territory in Laramie, Wyo. The couple met at a local restaurant where they were the only patrons in Colts gear, and spent the remainder of the season watching every game together. The following year, the couple traveled to Miami to watch their Colts take on the Saints in Super Bowl XLIV. Now married, Mindy and Chad moved back to Indiana, became season ticket holders, and are raising two daughters.
Tom Brady and the New England Patriots (7-2) travel to Lucas Oil Stadium to face Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts (6-3) this Sunday, Nov. 16, on Sunday Night Football on NBC. Pre-game coverage begins with Football Night In America at 7 p.m. ET.
