Ravens Fans Cheer On Phelps From M & T Bank Stadium
BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- When Michael Phelps isn't down in Brazil, scooping up all the gold medals, he can usually be found at a Ravens game this time of year.
Last night, the Ravens game took a pause around 10:15 p.m. as players from both teams and 70,682 fans at the game watched the most decorated Olympian of all time break even more records in Rio.
The Baltimore Ravens didn't want fans to miss the historic event, so they simulcast the 200 m individual medley over the RavensVision big screens, made "Ravens Flock For Phelps" signs and had fans chanting "USA, USA, USA."
The crowd chanted the "oh oh ooh's" of the "Seven Nations Army" theme song that means victory in Baltimore.
By the end of the night, Baltimore was feeling 22. That's 22 gold medals for Phelps and a 22-point win for the Ravens.
