The 29 year-old kicker for the Indianapolis Colts announced last night that he is retiring from the NFL, after 8 season, to focus on his dream...being a comedian.
After the Hall of Fame Game debacle on August 6th, the Indianapolis Colts finally opened preseason play on the road against Buffalo Saturday, during which punter, Pat McAfee booted a 67-yard punt. A particularly impressive feat that caught the eye of the NFL who surprised McAfee Monday morning with a special note in his locker.
Few Colts' players have ingrained themselves into the Indianapolis community like punter, Pat McAfee. He's quickly become a fan favorite thanks to his outgoing personality, quick wit, and hilarious sense of humor. Now he's taking his support of the city he calls home to the next level by sponsoring a car in the 100th running of the Indy 500 Memorial Day Weekend.
Yes, that headline is correct...you can see the Indianapolis Colts punter in concert. Ya' see, Pat McAfee is also a very funny comedian, and he's coming to the Victory Theatre next month.
