Man changes name b/c of bet

[yourmom]

This is great a Bears fan had to change his name to "Peyton Manning" because his team lost!

"A bunch of friends and I were talking one night before the game, and there was a little alcohol involved," said Wiese, 26. "I made the bet, and now I've got to keep it. I chose Manning because, well, he is kind of the face of the Colts franchise."

For those who had earlier doubted his resolve to go through with it, Wiese had signed a solemn pledge in front of some 200 people Friday night in Katz Piano Bar in downtown Decatur.

I applaud Peyton Manning for doing this, way to stand behind your word! And congrats to his friends for forcing heckling him enough to go through with it! Now only if a CU player would change his name to Flip if they lost.... hmmm... or Sonny...
