Daniels-Jindal agree to friendly Super Bowl wager

INDIANAPOLIS (February 5, 2010) - Governor Mitch Daniels is confident he can count on Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal to live up to his end of the bargain should the Indianapolis Colts win the Super Bowl Sunday.

Daniels and Jindal have agreed to a friendly flag-flying wager on the outcome of Sunday's Super Bowl. The governor from the state with the winning Super Bowl team will send a team flag that must be displayed by the other governor, either on a car, in his office or another public location.

"I know Governor Jindal is a stand-up guy and he'll fly the Indianapolis Colts flag we send him when the Colts win this weekend," said Daniels. Both governors will attend Sunday's game.

Daniels entered a similar wager with Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley before the Colts-Ravens game on January 16 but O'Malley did not wave the Indianapolis Colts flag after the Ravens' loss.
