I feel like we definitely have an older fanbase than most other teams. But that’s mostly because I feel that we lack the enthusiasm or craziness of other fanbases around the league. Might be because of the lack promise shown by the team in recent years but I’m not too sure. Anyways imma say the average is probably around 35+

    This is Reddit, there’s going to be mostly younger people responding so take the results with a grain of salt.

    The Reddit fan base is going to skew younger than the fan base as a whole. Pretty sure even the official forum has more old-timers.

    There is one Colts fan still remaining from the Unitas era who is 146 years old, so that skews the average.

    We definitely do not have the exuberance of the Manning era or the RCA Dome. Lucas Oil is so nice, people get comfortable and it’s like church in there sans 3rd down. I think it skews more corporate and family friendly so all the kids might actually make it lower or even out with all the parents. Reddit itself skews much younger and won’t represent the old head fans. I think actual young people tend to follow players more than teams and so they just latch onto whatever star players or winning teams that are going so for many it’s the Chiefs right now. That’s why we even as a small market team had such an international fan base during Peyton’s time here. I actually think we will have one of the younger fan bases over all because the Colts weren’t even in Indy until the early 80s so most older Indiana people are Bears or Packer fans mostly. Only people barely 40 and under would have grown up with the Colts & we sucked until the late 90s for a brief time with Captain Comeback and then once Peyton got us cooking.
