Wrapping Text around an Oval in inkscape

Quick question- What is the easiest way to get the text to wrap around the circle similar to the example sign i have attached? I can put it on a path, but I cannot get the words centered. I also run into trouble when I try to wrap the second word around the oval.

Hey, that was some game last weekend, wasn't it? Haha!

There are some tricks you can use to get the text in the right place. In the case of an oval, probably using Space in certain places is the best way. (With a circle, you can rotate the circle to help.)

Exactly which trouble are you having with the 2nd part? Is the text upside down, backwards, both, or inside or outside, when you want it the other way?

This is the problem that I run into when I put the text on path. I want the letters the spell out "Broncos" to wrap around the bottom of the oval similar to the example sign attached.

Here's one way... (I center justify the text first).
