    Thumbs up Ravens Victory parade through downtown Baltimore City!

    It's quite a sight!!

    I just hope the crowd control hold up and there are no crowd incidents to marr an otherwise wonderful celebration and sense of community here in the city that so many seem to enjoy putting down so often.

    I think it was great that the Batimore City Police did not strictly enforce the barriers so the Fans could love their Ravens. I guess they understood that the Fans love the Ravens when they win, they love the Ravens when they lose and the love the Raven when they win the Super Bowl. So nothing comes between the Fans and loving their Ravens. Thanks to the BPD for being team players.

    North Howard and Fayette is 3 or so blocks from the parade route. Could be parade crowd related but at least it wasn't along the parade route. Many from the parade were walking in that direction. There's a McDonalds, Nations Bank, Fried chicken and fish place and an abandoned pawn shop on the corners there.

    That is an idiotic thing to say.

    I attended the Victory/Welcome Home Parade for the Ravens today and it was truly amazing just how packed downtown Baltimore was. I have recorded two videos that I am currently uploading, the first is the entire Parade going down Pratt Street in front of the Baltimore Convention Center and the second is of the massive amounts of people that just flooded onto Pratt Street and was walking the route onto Howard Street and the amounts of people was so massive that at least two undercover police Suburbans escorting Ravens vehicles to the stadium could not get through the crowd even with lights and sirens active. I'll post links to the two videos once they are finished uploading.

    Taking the Orange Route of the Charm City Circulator near University of Maryland Medical Center so I could take either the 8 or the 48 home was packed with people. I got off at Howard Street and walked up to Greene and walked to the transit center and got on a #48 that instantly got completely full at the UMMC transit center, it bypassed every stop in downtown which was totally packed with people waiting for the bus, the stop that the bus could take passengers was at 33rd and Greenmount Avenue which is the stop I get off to walk home from.

    My guess is that you're right in that this particular homicide wasn't in any way related to the Raven's celebration but what it was is ANOTHER example of a POS making OUR City look bad and can I also guess that the perp wasn't Irish?

    You are probably correct. Do you think because its unlikely an Irishman would be at the location or because an Irishman wouldn't commit murder?

    Yet these wonderful "fans" still feel a need to boo the mayor as she rides along with the players.
