Where Are You All From?

891 posts in this topic

I'm from Birmingham in the UK.

Been a Ravens fan since 2008, the start of the Harbaugh/Flacco era. I started watching the NFL in 2007 and after a season I decided that Baltimore was the team for me. Just loved the way they played hard nosed, smash mouth football.

I do hope to come over to catch a game at some point, preferably we could decide to have a Wembley game though ;)

I'm from a small town near Copenhagen, Denmark.. Never been to the States but hoping that'll get to go someday soon and watch a game at M&T, preferably vs the Steelers or Patriots. But for now I'll just have to watch them on my TV  :TVWatchingSmiley:

I'm from Cheltenham in the UK. My family lived in Baltimore in the early 90s and supported the Redskins, and moved back to England before the Ravens formed. My dad still supports the Redskins to this day so we have a nice little rivalry in our house! As for me, I've been watching the NFL for about 4 years, and chose the Ravens because my family used to live there. Had a lot of good nights staying up til 4:30am watching them and getting only 3 hours sleep! Got a lot of friends who also watch a lot, definitely a growing sport over here. Someday I'll come over and watch a game in Baltimore!!

Ireland! 
My housemates in 2009 were fans of the 49er's and Jets. I was kind of forced into watching football and I decided to pick a team. I loved the intensity with which the Ravens defense played and watching videos of Ray Lewis sold it for me!

Football is getting really big in Ireland and I was so proud to be a Raven during the Superbowl run. I've a few fellow Ravens over here now! 

I've been reading BR.com for years but I've only just signed up. Go Ravens!

P.S.
My username "FiachDubh" is the gaelic for Raven :D

Believe it or not , never one to be a "homer,"  I was originally a Browns fan despite being born and raised in "Stillers Country" PA (cough-cough), but then moved to Florida in 1992 and, with absolutely no ties to c-LEAVE-land either, later stuck with the Ravens when they started over in Bmore in 1996.  Boy was that the right decision!! 

 

I still currently reside in the Tampa Bay area, specifically Pasco County.  Go RAVENS!!

New Jersey, more specifically South Jersey, near the home of Joe Flacco and Bryant McKinnie. FYI, Flacco's hometown of Audubon is only 7-8 miles from McKinnie's hometown of Woodbury. I now live in Columbia, MD.

Don't worry - fan since 2006, had my profile here since 2009, seen 110+ consecutive games on Game Pass.

 

Hoping some folks can show me what's up when I finally make the trek to M&T for a game!

Hey guys and girls

 

My name is Conan, and myself and my brother (Brad) are going to be attending the Begals game on Nov 10th. 

 

I am from the UK (now living in Dubai), and this will be our first NFL game. We are staying in NYC for a week and taking Amtrak to Baltimore early morning on gameday.

 

We want to make the most of this, so any tips for tailgating? (we will be on foot, so how does that work??!), what time to get to M&T?, anyone want to adopt two Brits for the day? haha!

 

Anyways, am new to the forum, so can't post a new topic, so thought I would add it in here. Looking forward to hearing from some of you, see if we can meet up on gameday!

 

Cheers,

I'm Diana from south essex in the UK.  I fell for the Ravens only 3 years ago, I'm hoping to get over to the M&T next year for my birthday.  Never know the Ravens might come over here for the international series.

Yes and loved it, as the only NFL game I'll get to see this year I made sure to enjoy every bit of it.  The Steelers loss was the icing on the cake :P
