One of the coolest parts about being inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame is getting the bust in Canton. Over the years, these sculptures have gotten better and better, and more and more accurate. The Edgerrin James and Jimmy Johnson busts looked fantastic, to name a few.

If you had a few guesses and hints, you could probably figure it out. But that didn’t resemble Peyton the way some others’ busts resembled them.
Archie Manning, who presented his son, could not resist patting the bust’s forehead.
Maybe the bust was missing Manning’s famous red mark on the forehead. True to form, Manning even had a joke about his red mark.
