Franklin Out For Revenge After Manning's Prank
DENVER (CBS4) - Orlando Franklin is turning to Twitter as he plots his revenge against Peyton Manning and Eric Decker after he was surprised with a shaving cream pie-in-the-face on live television last week.
Franklin was at Coors Field taking in a Rockies game with more than 30 Broncos teammates from a luxury box when the interview and sneak attack took place.
The Broncos offensive lineman told CBS4's Vic Lombardi on Xfinity Monday Live that he will give four tickets to any home game this season to the fan who tweets him the best idea for a practical joke or prank that he thinks is worthy of trying as retaliation against Manning, the mastermind, and Decker, who did the deed.
"My first instinct was to get (Decker) back in some sort (of way). I was just happy that he slipped up when he was trying to get away from me and I was able to catch him and bring him back in front of the camera and wipe a bit of that shaving cream back in his face," Franklin said.
He said he wound up doing the interview because "Peyton set me up."
"Peyton told me that I should do the interview and I wasn't really thinking. I'd never been to a baseball game before and I didn't know that was a tradition and they set me up pretty good."
Franklin told Lombardi he's serious and asks that people contact him here: @OFranklin74.
