24 posts in this topic

I went last year. Really want to go again, but I am going to take my chances hope we win and the jets win and go to the home game and hopefully the superbowl!!!

Beware the Steelers fans are nasty! Walking into the stadium fans were throwing snowballs at us inside the stadium the fans were throwing beer and saying nasty as stuff as well!!

yeah, I am expecting hostile treatment, got tix in the nosebleeds but I will be with 3 other people! Just got to take it and gloat after we win! Makes it that much sweeter!

Most Steeler fans I see in the city are pretty respectful but I know the stadium will be different

at any rate, WE GOT THIS!!!

I had great seats!! 50 yard line club level and you would think the fans would be a little more respectful and classy in the section. I was wrong!!!! It was also the playoff game last year... GOOD LUCK!!!

Nope. I see tix for $180 through the marketplace in the nosebleed sections. But there is no way I want to go through the PITA fans that I am when the Steelers come to Baltimore. :D
I'll watch it at home, hope for us and the Jets to win and then see them at The Bank. ;)

I don't think I'll ever to go Ketchup stadium after what I went through as a fan during the AFC Championship game. It was horrible and security (which was looking) did absolutely nothing. I lost my respect for the city during that game.

This one I'll watch from my couch.

Why the NFL Commissioner and Committee does not implement universal security laws is mind boggling.
Where are the petitions. Teams that can ward off their stadiums using rude, oobnoxious or even violent behavior remove fair enjoyment of the sport. It is undemocratc, and grants the home team additional advantage.

Stadiums generate capaity crowd count on game day.

Does anyone know whether a head ount is conducted for visiting fans. How many Ravens fans are expeted in attendence?

About painting town purple. Still awaiting Mariott to spell our Ravens in the windows for Inner Harbour view.

I'm going, I have 3 friends going but they are steelers fans so I will be sitting alone on the visitor side in black/purple! This is my last free weekend before class starts up and I want to support my team.

I dont think I could take it. I went to atlanta for the thursday night game and I almost killed an idiot down there for how they were acting. Its one thing to win and talk smack but when you wave a flag in my face while Im going down stairs thats cause for me to knock you out.

Yeah, some of them are. I got swung at at the last game in M&T...
Most of them are pretty respectful though, and we can be pretty painful to deal with ourselves.

I'll be watching on a brand new 42" LCD-LED HD TV while sitting on my couch. I'm chiming in to give encouragement, as I know what you all will face tomorrow. That crowd is UGLY! I went to the AFC Championship game in Jan 2009. I was wearing a big purple puffy Ravens coat, my purple camo pants, and my purple Ravens/98Rock Santa hat. I'm a fairly big guy, and I was a huge target to every drunk withing about 50 feet of me. Thank God that I was sober; had I been in that situation in my drinking days, I would be in a Pennsylvania prison right now for having launched several yinzers off the upper deck.
Go, have fun, STICK TOGETHER, and keep your cool. Female Ravens fans should be escorted to the bathroom, if there's only one woman in your group, send a guy with her and post him right outside the door. If the Ravens win, stick around inside the stadium until the majority of loser fans leave. JMO.
