Mayor Wears Peyton Manning Jersey, Hold Up His Side of the Wager

It took almost 8 months, but Lake Forest (IL) Mayor Michael Rummel (pictured here) paid off his "FPW" with Terre Haute (IN) mayor Kevin Burke. See, Lake Forest is the regular season home of the Chicago Bears and the Mayor decided to bet not food or drink, but rather a uniform.

The Colts won 29-17 in February, and Saturday was payday. Along with Rummel providing Burke with various "goodies'' from Lake Forest, Rummel had to show up at training camp wearing a Colts jersey. If the Bears had prevailed, Burke would have donned a Bears jersey and served as grand marshal at the recent "Dog Day'' parade in Lake Forest.

I like this bet. In addition to delivering these so called "goodies", there's the shame aspect. That's a nice touch, guys. I wonder what the "goodies" were? One of their notable exports is Vince Vaughn!
