Inside Pullman's for the Colts-Texans Game!

What a great show last week! Kudos to the guys for braving the "cold" weather and thanks to the Crowne Staff for the stage. The flow of people stopping to watch the show has gotten better every week and the atmospher around the hotel has been electric. A big thank you to all those who showed their appreciate this week. The more we have done the show, the more people we have been able to engage and really get to know. The best news is that we are signed for the rest of the year!!! Other than the New England game (HomeTown Sports has a prior committment), we will be doing the remaining home games and possible two road games. This week we will be inside Pullman's for the game. Please stop by, have a beer and a burger and meet Jeff, Greg and John. We are looking to have some fun promotions and give aways! Remember, everything kicks off at 10 am and ends an hour before kickoff. Pullman's is a great place to start your game day and get caught up on the day's games. Hope to see you there!

Come one, come all!

Our show will start a 10 am, as Greg Rakestraw, ex-Colt player Jeff Burris and John Oehser give you the keys to a Colt's win.

What a great atmosphere on Sunday! Thank you to all who came down to Pullman's last night and watched the the Crowne Plaza Pre-game Tailgate Show being broadcast live on HomeTown Sports! It was our largest crowd yet! Congrats to Nicole, Steve, Bob, and Joel who won the drawing for a free drink on me! And to top it all off, the Colts run over the Titans 31-9. We have a week off with the bye week and than will be broadcasting the next show on November 1 when the Colts take on the 49ers at home. No broadcast for the St. Louis game, but you can come down and watch all the games in Pullman's on one of the 11 High Def TVs. Our 1,2,3 Drink Special will be going on again ($1 drafts, $2 house wine, $3 well drinks).

Two for Two!

The weather gods have been smiling on the Crowne Plaza! Not only have we not seen a drop of rain, but it has been blue skies, somewhat cool and crisp: true football weather. For our second home game, once again the Crowne Plaza was The Place to Meet! The corner of Capital and Louisiana has become the hot spot for pre-game activities. The Crowne Plaza Pre-game Tailgate Show kicked off the day at 10 am with our live pre-game show on HomeTown Sports Indiana. Jeff, Greg and John have really blended nicely and are offering great incite on the day's games. With the Colts at 4-0, the there have lots of highlights to cover and great stories to tell, especially with the two rookie wideouts. The show is begining to gain notice as more and more people stop and watch and interact with the guys. This show saw us have fans from Canada ask questions on the air, introduction to a couple from Tennessee who came to see Peyton play as a Colt for the first time, multiple photo ops and prospecting opportunities for yours truly!



This week also saw the continued success of the Budlight Tailgate Zone. Great food, great music and great company. It is usually packed from about 11 am until kickoff, so come early. And if the outdoors is not your thing, come inside and enjoy Pullman's Lounge. 11 high def TVs and awesome drink specials. The next show will be Sunday the 11th, at the Pullman's Lounge for a prime time match up with the Tennessee Titans. Show will start at 6 pm, hope to see you there!
