Spontaneous Performance aka Flash Mob!!!

In Indianapolis, every Friday before a Sunday game is considered Blue Friday. In conjunction with this day, the Colts put on an interactive event for the fans, which is held at various locations around the Indianapolis area.

This particular Friday the event was held at Circle Center Mall, in downtown Indianapolis. Over the lunch hour, the food court was turned into Colts Mania! The usual aspects of this type of event are: cheerleader and alumni player autographs, giveaways and live music! (As you can see from the photo below the autograph table was situated right outside of Johnny Rockets-we really crammed ourselves into the food court!)

However, what made this Blue Friday different from any other in the past, was that it also included a surprise not known to many: the Colts Cheerleaders "Spontaneous Performance"!

Now, we called this a Spontaneous Performance, even though most people would classify it as a Flash Mob. We had to do this because Flash Mobs are associated with riots and are no longer welcome in public spaces. So legally, we were eh okay with out Spontaneous Performance.

The week leading up to the Spontaneous Performance, the girls used bits of practice time to mash together a few of their routines, so to form the final product. So around 12:15 p.m., when the live musicians were "taking a break," music began playing and the unidentifiable cheerleaders slowly added to the dance...

Watch this video, you'll see what I mean!
