...Baltimore...The team and stadium...the player introductions...the fan creed (DON'T BE A JERK!) etc. The fans were also great. They were very friendly and a couple even offered to buy us drinks even though we were loud Bills fans.
Ralph should make a road trip every once in awhile. Maybe he could pick up a few tips on how to put on a show.
They even played Radiohead.
That place screamed class.
Any stadium without the fairy shout song is ok in my book. Is there a decision on that yet? I hope it's outta here!
I dont know... there is something about 80,000 fans clapping and singing in unison in late december/january while snow is falling after a game winning TD.
I dont think you will get that with a "top 40" song in the same situation.
Keep the tradition alive!

I agree with pride. Sure it's a bit hokey but it's better then having some silly hard rock/rap top 40 song.
Resign our own guys!
Maryland has some of the nicest people.
10 years ago I was there for work for a week. At a gas station, my work ID must have fallen out of my wallet where it was recovered by a nice lady.
She called my company HQ in Tampa (which was the number on the back of the ID) and she tracked me down through the company to the hotel I was staying at!
She dropped it off at the desk, with a dinner invitation - she even wanted me to meet her daughter (she thought I was good looking from the ID I guess)
Never did get to go to dinner, allthough I sent some flowers as a thank you.
The Baltimore fans were great. Even that one Miami fan was ok! Actually, thanks MD and Wys for saving me and my fiancee great seats. As for the Shout song.......it's tradition. Don't get me wrong, I'm a rock and metal fan but that's so common in stadiums. At least everybody knows the Shout song and you get almost 80,000 people clapping and singing. It's the noise and excitement that makes it. Plus any song made famous in a movie like Animal House has to be okay.
Keep the Shout song

KEEP THE SHOUT SONG!!!
I guess M&T doesen't go in your book, because they played shout there, though it wasn't 'our' shout song.Originally posted by billsfanone

What tradition folks? A couple of teams use the SAME SONG!
LOG, TM,
Ya gotta have liked that intro for the D culminating w/ that Ray Lewis intro, no!
Man, that was powerful!! I can see the same thing happening w/ TA-KEO!!!
Or TAK-E-I-E-I-O!!! LOL
Sounds like that guy who does the Sabres games. Or did, not being that much a fan of hockey and never having lived in Buffalo.
Replace Donahoe with Modrak and fire the entire coaching staff!
Then let's go to Disneyworld!
GO BILLS!!!
No. M&T Stadium is the stadium where the Ravens play.Originally posted by billsfanone

I also loved how they didn't play stupid 80's heavy metal between every play. IMO, that music they play at the ralph takes the crowd out of the game and totally ruins the ambience at the Ralph.
They have the largest marching band of any NFL team, which actually didn't suck. They played a lot in between plays and during commercial breaks so it gave the whole college-type atmosphere.
The 2 super-wide screen smartvision screens were awesome as well.
I totally agree. How many times do we have to hear "Crazy Train" during the damn game?!!Originally posted by lordofgun

Oh no, now I feel like Wys, disagreeing with everyone. lol I guess it's an okay place. Personally, it's not one of my favorite stadiums. I'm not all that crazy about the fans or Ray Lewis. And, I didn't like the hype when Ray was introduced. I've been there a few times and this was probably one of my better experiences there. We sat next to some nice people but the last time I was there for the Bills regular season game, the fans were throwing things at me. And, I'll have you know, I'm not a loud or obnixious fan. I sit quietly and watch the game. Lambeau was the best stadium I've been to so far. Great fans and great atmosphere. Baltimore is at the bottom of my list, even below my dreaded Skins.
There's not a stone in my heart I've left unturned
Not a piece of my soul that I ain't searched
The only answer I found for all this hurt
Is there ain't not answer here on earth

((I am not dissing any form of music with this post))
It's a football game. If I want to listen to music I'll bring a radio. I know when to make noise. I don't have to be instructed on how to be a fan. What is hilarious is that nobody, except for clump, likes 80% of the music they play between plays anyway.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
Add me to that list. I like the music played inbetween plays too. lolOriginally posted by EbenezerWhat is hilarious is that nobody, except for clump, likes 80% of the music they play between plays anyway.
