The present day team is the result of a move from Baltimore, Maryland back after the end of the 1983 season. The city of Indianapolis had worked hard to attract an NFL franchise, either of the expansion variety or of the established team variety and the Colts’ issues with its old city proved to be the impetus that would lead to its relocation to its new home in the Indiana town. Sales of Indianapolis Colts tickets were strong right out of the gate.

About The Indianapolis Colts
The first season in Indianapolis for the Colts would prove to be challenging, with the team failing to sign its first round draft pick that year and with it being obviously affected still by the move to its new home, though Indianapolis Colts tickets -- especially of the season-ticket variety -- would be through the roof. However, by 1987 the team would make its first postseason appearance as division champs and an Indianapolis-based football franchise.
The intervening years until 1995 would see the team worked hard but come up just short on many occasions of a postseason appearance until 1995, when it would put it all together to pull out one of several wild card entries through the years. The Colts would go on to make two more postseason appearances in the 90s, including as divisional champs in 1999. That 1999 appearance and winning season would mark the first of nine straight playoff appearances for this new powerhouse football team, which ended up selling tons of Indianapolis Colts tickets.
This error would coincide with the draft of a young college quarterback named Peyton Manning, whose name alone was enough to inspire sales of Indianapolis Colts tickets to even the most leery of fans. His strong arm and sublime football skills, combined with superlative draft picks like Reggie Wayne -- who worked well with future Hall of fame wide receiver Marvin Harrison -- would mean that postseason appearances would become expected.
It would all finally come together with the team winning its first Super Bowl championship in Indianapolis in 2006, defeating the Chicago Bears 29-17 on February 4, 2007. They were also the first so-called "dome team" to win a Super Bowl while playing a game in an outdoor stadium down in Miami.
Building off of two strong seasons in 2007 and 2008, the Indianapolis Colts show no signs of slowing down under the superlative quarterbacking of future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning and Pro bowl-caliber wide receiver Reggie Wayne. With the retirement of head coach Tony Dungy in January of 2009, the Colts will be looking to the strong leadership of new coach Jim Caldwell. The team expects to sell a lot of Indianapolis Colts tickets and is also expected to go deep into the playoffs yet again, with a possible Super Bowl championship on the line in the 2010 postseason.
