Manning Colts gear selling fast

Written by Todd Smith.

Peyton Manning has departed the Circle City for Mile High environs. Apparently Manning-related merchandise is also scarce around town:

"We've sold more in the last two days than in the last three months. He's just been wildly popular," Tom Gebauer, manager of the Collectors Den store in Circle Centre mall, said Tuesday.

Gebauer said the three Collectors Den stores in Indianapolis have sold about $10,000 of Manning-autographed Colts merchandise since Monday, when his move to the Broncos became known.

Question: can't you, in the NFL pro-shop, just purchase a #18 jersey and then manually tell them to put "Manning" on the back.  I mean, my work had a Colts jersey made up for me, with the number "01" and "Wills" on the back.  "01" because I work in software, and it's a binary 01 which is really 2, I guess.

 @buymymonkey um. binary 01 is still 1. binary 10 is 2. right? /concerned face

 @buymymonkey relatedly, there's an old joke about there being "10" kinds of people in the world: those who get binary, and those who don't... :-\

 @ManiacallySteve Put me in the latter!  No, you're 100% right (of course).  I wrote the post real quick and didn't think. But you were kind in your correction!
