Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning will be the keynote speaker at next year’s Rental Show in New Orleans.
The Rental Show will be held February 22 to 25 at the Ennest N. Morial Convention Center, which is just a few blocks down Canal Street from the Mercedes Benz Superdome, formerly known as the New Orleans Superdome, where Manning’s father, Archie Manning, played as quarterback for the Saints from 1975 to 1982.Although the senior Manning started playing for the Saints in 1971, the Superdome wasn’t completed until 1975.
During his address, Peyton Manning — the NFL’s only five-time winner of the Most Valuable Player trophy — will share his thoughts on developing qualities of leadership, making the right decisions, and what it takes to become a champion in our own lives, according to a trade show news release.
Manning — whose younger brother Eli is the starting quarterback for the New York Giants — led his former team, the Indianapolis Colts, to win Super Bowl XLI. He has been named to 13 Pro Bowls and has 13 4,000-plus passing yard seasons so far. Both Fox Sports and Sports Illustrated have named Peyton Manning the NFL Player of the Decade for the 2000s. He is known for his hurry-up, no-huddle offense.
