The Indianapolis Colts are trolling hard for fans.
The Colts are not wasting any time trying to pick up some new fans out of St. Louis, following the exit of the Rams out to Los Angeles. Indianapolis is going for broke on social media, with one of the funnier tweets of the young year.

Indianapolis is going to have to pull out all the stops to get some fans. After missing the playoffs when most experts had them going to the Super Bowl, it is tough to sell fans on coming over to your side. Plus, Missouri already has another team that is actually in the playoffs with the Kansas City Chiefs, who laid the serious smackdown on Saturday against the Houston Texans.
The other thing going against the Colts landing more fans? Jim Irsay. The owner has been an interesting character to say the least and somehow made the decision to retain general manager Ryan Grigson, who is absolutely awful. It’s an embarrassment to the highest order, and the Colts are letting it happen. Good luck, new Colts fans.
