Submitted by: Structure Man Last Friday Indianapolis Colts Mascot, Blue, and Shiel Sexton's Assistant Safety Director, Matt Main, hung a 21 foot blue and white scarf around the neck of Shiel Sexton's famed Structure Man. The scarf is part of the Indianapolis Super Bowl Committee's Super Scarves program. In an effort to involve more demographics in the excitement of the Super Bowl, Super Scarves hope to knit 8,000 scarves to be handed out to Indianapolis volunteers at the 2012 Super Bowl. Shiel Sexton's "Structure Man" was sought out to be one of the first(and largest)participants of the program. Shiel Sexton is proud to lend our trademark and our team to the city to also be part of the Practice Facility Committee and the Super Bowl Village Committees.
The Super Bowl means more to Indianapolis than just a "Big Game". The Super Bowl will have an impact that will last for years to come. Mayor Ballard, in a speech to kick-off the Super Bowl committee's efforts said, "It became clear that the return on the investment for hosting the Super Bowl would be hundreds of millions of dollars". Even beyond the tourism and entertainment dollars that will flow through the city, the planned east side redevelopment will leave a lasting legacy long after the last snap is taken. Shiel Sexton is proud to be a participant in this monumental event for the city of Indianapolis.
