I see the Ravens every time they're in NY, but this weekend as an early graduation gift, I will be spending a weekend in Baltimore and seeing my first regular season game at the bank. I know a couple of the main ones. If there's more please fill me in so I can fully participate!!!

For example:

-"O" during the National Anthem after "that our flag was still there"
-Seven Nation Army (obviously)
-Calls for player names (REEEEEEEED, LEEEEEEEEEACH)

If a tree falls down in the woods and no one is around to hear it, do the Steelers still suck?

At the beginning of each game, they run down a fan conduct statement - fans shout the last line, "Don't be a jerk!"

Rub Johnny U's foot, if you come in that way.

If the D is being introduced, get hyped when Ray walks out!

There's this arm motion deal kind of like the tomahawk arm motion Florida State does every time there is a first down. And there's this graphic on the big boards that says "Move Those Chains."

It can get annoying so lets hope you get REALLY irritated by it since that means our offense is clicking ;)

Thats what i do right before i go into the stadium, can't remember if i rub the shoe but i do touch the statue for good luck. Oh and we won the game last time i did that.

Football rituals are only Weird if they don't work. :)

I love the 7 nation army chant but i like it even more now that its becoming into something different. Its this kinda long chant now. Which i think is better because B More put its own spin on it.

If you havn't noticed, other n.f.l stadiums are trying to do it now.

And yes i know, Colleges have been doing it for a while now but the RAVENS i think were the first in the N.F.L

Congrats on your graduation.

Those traditions sound awesome, especially the "don't be a jerk" part.

You have to be really, really loud on defense. If your throat gets sore, you beat on the seat in front of or next to you. Those hollow plastic seats make great drums. The noise can be deafening.

Before the game starts, when they announce the players from the away team, the crowd usually yells "sucks!" right after each name is called.

I don't know if they still do this because I haven't been to a game in 4 years, but I don't know why they'd stop.

2 years ago we still did it... First time I took my boy, although I tried to prepare him; I still scared him a bit with the yelling but by the end of the game he was right there with me :-)

And it has special meaning here since Jack White included "Baltimore" in the lyrics!

LOLOL, You must have read my post about me saying that when i went to the Bungels game last yr. I lost my voice 3 times, i would lose my voice everytime id get it back.

I had my whole section beating on the chairs infront theirs, lol, i remember i was banging the chair so hard, the Chick infront of me had Beer in the cup holder and it was splashing everywhere. LOL, She was either too drunk to realize it or she just didnt care.

Good times, but my throat was hurting for a few days. I was in the 109 section by the endzone, where the players come out opposite side. Great seats.

The best tradition was when they used to play the song in which the entire stadium would yell "YOU SUCK!" during a big lead.

Standing on third down.
Telling the beer guy to keep the change whenever a visiting fan passes $ down for drinks.
Telling visiting fans to keep going to the top and jump off when we were seated in the 5th level.
And always, and I mean always, kneel down if you are walking up the stairs when a play begins. Some fans are so clueless...
