Muncie
Muncie - The parking lot outside of the AAA in Muncie was packed Wednesday night. However, the people filling the parking lot were not hoping to get insurance, they were waiting for their chance to meet Josh Betts and Jeff Charleston at the eighth Make It Personal tour stop.
Among the fans were Blake, 3, and Caleb, 2, and their Father Ben. Ben is a Colts season ticket holder; however, Blake and Caleb have not been able to attend a game yet.
"It is a great chance for the kids to be able to come out and see the players in person. They were really excited when we got to the front of the line." said Ben.
The excitement continued for Blake and Caleb after they received their autographs. They headed over to the Grange insurance booth, where they were able to spin the wheel for a variety of prizes. Both boys left happy with new Colts footballs.
