Sports Legends Museum

Last weekend, we all went downtown to celebrate and enjoy the dollar days that all area museums were providing. The admission to the museum was one dollar for each of us. So we went down around 2, and spent a few hours in the museum. Over the past year, we have each become bigger O's fans, appreciating the rich history and of course all the great players and moments we have been involved in. We also love the rest of the sports in Maryland, so this is the perfect museum. Before we went into the museum we went over to the ballpark to see the place we spent so much time and this is what we saw:
Yes- some of the seats had been pulled out. They are replacing the concrete, and this is how they were doing it. It looked very odd, but it'll be nice to have new concrete and a good base.

The museum part of the day was amazing. There are so many pictures and since I can't share all of them, I'll show all the trophy's they have--(in order of the pictures) 1983 World Series Trophy, 1970 WS Trophy, Mens and Womens National Championship Trophy ( UMD basketball), and the Super Bowl V Trophy (Baltimore Colts).

This of course was only a small portion of the day, (we got to put on different jerseys, including a UMD and Navy Football jersey, we got to see the 2131 banner, and lots of different Orioles and Ravens/Colts memorabilia. It was a great day, and it was worth going out in the rain to see this. More on the offseason later and also keep checking with Avi's blog. Go O's!!

(this one will have all the pictures I put on Flickr, so look at the descriptions, because it will be from a few different days)

Pictures and Update

Pictures are now being uploaded from the end of the season and also from the trip. I will link albums as they become available, so please look through them, enjoy, and we'll be back at Oriole Park soon.

There is big news about that though. We will now be season plan holders!! We have all bought the 13 game plan, so we get all the benefits and of course, we can now say that we are Season Ticket holders. Very exciting, and now we will be able to get into the entire ballpark at 5, so that means more experiences and more baseballs. FanFest will be on January 23rd, this year at the Convention Center, so there will be an update about that also. There is also a plan to go down to Spring Training and Opening Day in Tampa, which would be great. As we get closer, I will be able to let you all know how that starts to work out.

Go O's
