Peyton Manning the quarterback has fallen into a perfect offense in Denver.

And Peyton Manning the owner of a number of Papa John’s franchises has also found purchase in a place where it’s legal to smoke marijuana.

While discussing his voting habits and being socially connected during an interview with Peter King of TheMMQB.com, Manning admitted that the local population having access to weed made for better business.

“I’ve gotten to know some of the folks here in Colorado,” Manning said. “There’s some different laws out here in Colorado. Pizza business is pretty good out here, believe it or not, due to some recent law changes. So when you come to a different place, you’ve kind of got to learn everything that comes with it.”

Manning’s sense of humor might be sharper than his passes at this stage in his career, but the guy has always known how to read a defense, and take what’s available to him.
