WASHINGTON, D.C. – With the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints set to battle it out in Super Bowl XLIV this Sunday, Representatives Dan Burton (R-IN-05) and Anh "Joseph" Cao (R-LA-02) have agreed to the following wager: if the Colts win, Rep. Cao will ship five pounds of Louisiana Gulf shrimp to Indianapolis, and if the Saints win, Rep. Burton will ship five pounds of prime Indiana steak to New Orleans.  The Representatives offered the following remarks after shaking hands:

“The Saints’ motto all season has been 'Finish Strong,' and I expect that is exactly what they’ll do this Sunday in Miami. Congressman Burton, on behalf of the Who Dat Nation, we like our steaks medium rare," said Rep. Cao.

"I very much look forward to enjoying some Louisiana gulf shrimp," said Rep. Burton as he purchased a sizeable amount of cocktail sauce, "and I'm really appreciative to Congressman Cao for offering to supplement our victory party with this dish.  Go Colts!"
