It was only a matter of time until brands and sports teams tried to get in on the “Milk Crate Challenge,” and on Tuesday, it happened with the Indianapolis Colts.
The “Milk Crate Challenge” is a recent social media trend where people try to navigate a wobbly pyramid of stacked milk crates. The challenge — mostly consisting of hard falls — has gone viral and forced plenty of people to visit emergency rooms.
The Colts mascot, Blue, seemed unfazed given the risks.
In a Twitter video from Blue’s official page, Blue had a massive pyramid of milk crates set up at the team’s indoor facility. And in full mascot costume, Blue completed the journey with relative ease. Don’t try this at home:

Knowing how competitive NFL mascots can be, this probably won’t be the first attempt we’ll see from the league’s mascots.
Still, there probably wasn’t anyone happier to see Blue complete the challenge without falling than the Colts’ legal team. We could only imagine how poorly things could have gone had Blue fallen and gotten hurt while attempting the stunt on company property. Can’t believe they let that happen, but props to Blue.
That was impressive.
