Coming home to perform in the great city of Baltimore or at the Colts Coral were some of the most rewarding experiences of our lives. We continued to keep the spirit alive for the people of Baltimore and they in return kept our spirit alive! The band, flagline, and cheerleaders were a family of people all striving toward one common goal . . . and they were successful in doing so for many years after the team had vanished.

I had a great email today that reiterates your point...here it is... ''My husband became a Redskins fan after Colts left. You know that DC blocked us from getting the Colts for many years. Anyway he always said when Baltimore gets a new team, I will burn all my Redskins stuff. When they announced the two expansion teams (Carolina Panthers and Jaguars), my husband was down on his hands and knees in front of the TV praying that the second team was awarded to Baltimore. When they announced the Jaguars, he layed on the floor and cried. My husband passed away one year before we got the Ravens, I bought a huge black and purple flower arrangement and placed it on his grave saying “Football has Returned to Baltimore”. I took all his Redskins stuff outside, put it in a Redskins Cooler and burned everything. Steve,
