97.1 The Ticket -- The Colts-Titans game got off to a hot start in Nashville on Sunday -- literally.
A piece of what appeared to be pyrotechnic machinery caught fire during the pregame show and scorched part of the field. Reports on social media indicated the equipment tipped over before bursting into flames, which made for a bizarre scene inside a football stadium.
