I was a paramedic then..the service I worked for had the contract to provide coverage for Colts home games. Each game had medical coverage for the spectators. They would also staff a medic on the sidelines in case a player got hurt. I signed up for this game as soon as schedule came out that year. I got to be on the sidelines. At end of game as John Elway was walking off field from taking a beating..I ran up to him and asked him for his autograph..he said " how about a wristband instead?" He gave me his sweaty wristband. Epic night for me.🙂
It's amazing how random games (much like music in many cases) can take you back to a time and place. I was a senior in HS this All Hallows Eve. The only thing I remembered about this game was Dickerson going off.
Thanks for the video man. My father was at this game and he told me when I was young about Eric Dickerson 4td game against the Broncos I’ve spent years looking for this game.
I remember watchin this game like it was yestrday.. one play in particular when just b4 Dickerson made one of his many long distance td runs! hearing one of the loudest blocks & shoulder pad claps from the Colts offensive lineman & Broncos defensive linebackers which made the run that much better to see..
I was nine years old and cried because my parents made me go trick or treating instead of watching this game. My father was dying laughing calling me a weird kid.
Dickerson really went to Hall of Fame with Colts. 10 yrs earlier while with Cowboys. Dorsett tore up Colts opening Monday night game of 1978 season. 38-0.
As a bronco fan and since this blowout happened on Halloween, I refused to exercise and compete on national holidays ever since believing it was bad luck, because I thought about this game.
Jerry Markbreit is an all-timer, but on the fumble at 25:53 and subsequent unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, I would have said "The ruling on the field is a fumble and recovery by Indianapolis. After the play was over, personal foul, unnecessary roughness, number 88 of the offense. Fifteen yards from the spot of the foul. First down. Time out"
@ sports 1 I was wondering if you requested game because I have couple of 1988 colts games 1988 week10 jets at colts 1988 week11 colts at packers 1988 week12 colts at Vikings 1988 week 13 Patriots if not that ok to I was just wondering if you take requests game I was trying to find the Turkey bowl game that run on the football field and one more request game 1988 week11 chargers at Falcons game
during denvers 80s wannabe dynasty, at least this started at 7pm in Denver, since the packers were terrible when i was a kid i never had to worry about asking my parents if i could stay up late for mnf, they got good when i was in higj school so by that time it wasnt as issue
thank you for posting this disaster. not only did i hardly get any candy. i end up at my grandmas house got jack from her and had to endure this beating. thank you so much

Thanks for uploading this. I’ve waited to watch this game for 30+ years. Mom wouldn’t let me after trick or treating because it was a school night.
I always wondered what the deal was with parents and kids not watching tv or heaven forbid being up after 9 on a school night?
Here to see Dickerson run wild. This was the biggest home game of the Indy Colts at this time

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've been trying to get a copy of this game for years.
Thank you for the post!! I have been looking for this one!
I loved Brooks!

They’d give 55 a year later too in the Super Bowl against San Francisco.
This game should have a lot more views. Bug game for the colts

Lol no he didn’t. He set the single season record with the Rams…he was already a HOF when he came to the colts.
‘90 game ought to be uploaded too

It looks like you missed your calling
Dickerson killed it here. Broncos run D was trash
