INDIANAPOLIS -- Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri now holds the Guinness World Record for most field goals kicked in a minute.

Vinatieri kicked 28 field goals on Friday, crushing the previous speed-kicking record of 19 field goals. 

BarclayCard, a European credit card company, has agreed to give $15,000 to the Pat Tillman Foundation because of his success.

The Pat Tillman Foundation invests in military veterans through scholarships.

In 2004, Vinatieri kicked a game-winner in Houston to give the Patriots the Super Bowl win over the Carolina Panthers.
