When we were making Parks and Recreation we shot scenes with the Colts. We were told we had maybe an hour with the players. Then Andrew Luck showed up, and he was an absolute delight. Warm, funny, generous. He threw TD passes to anyone who wanted one, just to make us happy. 1/Schur said Luck "made fifty fans that day" as he was friendly to everyone on the cast and crew. Luck, Wayne, Irsayand other members of the team appeared again in a November 2013 episode.
