Bears fan to change name to Peyton Manning

DECATUR, Ill. (Feb.7, 2007) -- How do you spell Scott Wiese?

In a few weeks, that'd be P-e-y-t-o-n M-a-n-n-i-n-g.

Wiese, a die-hard fan of the Chicago Bears, signed a pledge in front of a crowd at a Decatur bar last Friday night that if the Bears lost Sunday's Super Bowl, he'd change his name to that of the man who led the Indianapolis Colts to victory.

Final Score: Colts 29, Bears 17.

So on Tuesday, Wiese went to the Macon County Courts Facility and started the process of changing his name.

"I made the bet, and now I've got to keep it," said the 26-year-old, who lives in Forsyth, just north of Decatur.

What a fool. People never cease to amaze me with their stupidity.

I don't mind betting but I NEVER bet on my team. I want them to win because they are my team, not because I'll have to change my name if they lose :)
