Of course, it didn't take long for people to draw parallels to the history between the two cities...

Hoping this is the second time Indianapolis takes something awesome from Baltimore. #mayflower #pagano #colts

So will Coach #Pagano sneak out of Baltimore for Indianapolis in the dark of night like the #Colts did?

I wonder if the new #Colts coach is using #Mayflower to move from Baltimore to Indy. I heard they have cheap middle of the night rates.
