Baltimore, Maryland, is known for a great number of things; mainly typical stereotypes that are portrayed in the media. However, Baltimore has much more to offer, especially in the area of professional sports. Here are some of the pro sports teams in Baltimore fans go crazy over and support through their wins and their losses.

Football

Baltimore Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens are the official football team of Baltimore, Maryland. Two-time SuperBowl winners, they last won in 2013.

Fans wear black and/or purple in a show of support for the team.
