It had been planned, on a spur of the moment. As a diehard Raven fan, Erin Christine and her friends wanted to do a roadtrip to Indy, to support our Ravens in the playoffs against the hated Colts. So they opted to drive all the way up there to root on, and support there team. Little did they know, Indy fans would prove they would be more classless than Steeler fans. I recently had the chance to interview diehard Raven fan Erin Christine???and here is what she had to say about the RoadTrip to Indy???.

Ravens Red Zone: You went on a road trip to Indy, for the Ravens/Colts playoff game. Did it feel good to drive all the way down to Indy to support your Ravens, and show Baltimore???s colors?

Erin Christine: It was a very exciting trip. We basically were running off adrenaline and couldn???t believe we were actually going. We had decorated the car the night before with Raven flags and window decals. It was fun seeing other Ravens fans on the road when we would stop somewhere or even if we were just driving through the different states. When we pulled up to our hotel we got excited to see that there were about 10-15 more Ravens fans staying at the hotel as well.

Ravens Red Zone: There was a bar full of all Ravens fans in Indy. You were in that bar???was it a Raven party in there, how much fun was it?

Erin Christine: We actually went to Howl at the moon, Which was throwing a Huge Ravens party before the game. So it was nice to finally go in somewhere that you were welcomed. But once the game started it cleared out???Because everyone was going to the game. It was a blast being in there with all of them having a good time and getting prepared for the game

Ravens Red Zone: They say the Indianapolis guys are nerds. Did any nerdy Colts fans try to talk to you and your friends, and how dumb do guys look wearing nerdy Colt t-shirts?

Erin Christine: They really werent trying to talk to us. We got a lot of crap walking down the street. I expected things to be said, but maybe in a joking manner like you would see in Baltimore, I didn???t expect it it to be at the extent that it was. Especially grown mean walking up to 3 Girls and getting in our faces. Ravens fans are so much better then Indy Fans. I got spit on and the other girl got called a ****.

Ravens Red Zone: Were the fans sitting near you all, respectful or were they rude?

Erin Christine: The Indy fans are very rude. I have been to a lot of games and I have to say they are the worst. They have no respect for anyone..Not even 3 girls who are minding their own business rooting for their football team. They take it to a whole nother level there. It is clear they HATE the Ravens and The Fans.

Ravens Red Zone: How would you describe the Colts dome stadium?

Erin Christine: I think the stadium was the nicest thing about the Colts lol. We actually sold our tickets and I didnt make it to see the inside of the stadium. Because of things that happened prior in the night, we just stayed at the bar for the game.

Ravens Red Zone: Even though we lost, how proud are you of the Ravens this season?

Erin Christine: Im proud they made it this far. No matter if they win or lose Im still proud of my boys. They had an awesome year. It just wasn???t meant for us to go all the way this year???.There???s always next year!

(7) Is there anything you would like to add about the trip(you/yourfriends/experience while down there)?

Erin Christine: All in all we had a blast..It was a good experience, but We realized that Indy fans have no respect. You will never walk into a bar in Baltimore and get turned away because of the jersey you have on. I would do it all over again. It was all about the experience and 3 best friends bonding over football.
