Iam 71yrs old. I started watching these great players in this video when i was 6yrs old !!! My wifes uncle set it up for me to meet Johnny Unitas at the 4100 club. We drank a few beers and had a great time. We had to sit in a outcove at the end of the bar so the people could not see him. !!!

Born and raised in Baltimore and I used to buy $4 tickets on Monday from the Colt ticket office on Charles because it was short walk from my High School. Burt Reicher, who played defense, tended bar on Greenmount Avenue during the week just 1/2 mile from the Stadium. Sitting in the upper deck, in the nose bleed, seats was a thrill and my greatest thrill was watching Lenny Moore score a touchdown to win the game against the SF 49ers when he literally ran backwards for the 10 yards (I believe it was 1957 and it stuck in my mind because it showed that the team could battle with the best and, of course, they won it the all the next year with the great game in Yankee Stadium.

I was at the first game of the 1983 World Series there. I was working at Fort McHenry at the time. We got a call the day of the game asking us to bring one of the big flags up there for the opening ceremony. The superintendent agreed but said she needed four rangers to guard and protect that flag. And so it was that I was standing, in my uniform, in the middle of center field in the first game of the World Series holding a corner of a big Fort McHenry flag as they played the Star Spangled Banner. That was a moment.

I miss the old girl so much. I don't miss it like I miss a let's say car. No. Instead I miss her with the same sentimental fervor that I miss a lost loved one. That's how important that stadium was in my life. I came of age with it during the 70s, I struggled with the idea of becoming an actual adult in my 30s as the team struggled through much of the 80s....and Memorial was a constant for both. When it was demolished, I was truly heart broken. At least while her dilapidated frame still stood, unused, you could still stand outfront on a quiet night and swear you could hear the ghosts of a etter time...the roar from 34, maybe you'd pick up a faint "Thank yoooooou" or a packed house following the field jester, or Rick Dempsey as we knew him,, in yet another ORIOLES spelling. Once the shell was demolished, sadly the ghosts went with it, leaving only a memory that is losing information as I start to grow older. These ghosts won't be joining you at Camden either...because for the ghost of Wild Bill Hagy, double digit beer prices and micro brew? This isn't a Baltimore he remembers....in fact it's not baltimore in the slightest. That why I loved memorial stadium and the teams that played in them....because they represented us, my baseball team was working class and it's players believed in the team and we believed in them.

The world’s largest insane asylum…..as we knew it in Baltimore growing up…….a lot of great memories there because the Orioles used it too. On thanksgiving we always had the City/ Poly football game that drew thousands…..fireworks on the 4th of July…..and the great Hit and Run Club restaurant inside the stadium, almost hidden from the public…..good memories from a great stadium.

I hate the big screen TVs in all the 'modern' stadiums (and all the other redundant bells and whistles 'distractions). That ain't the way to 'experience' a game live.

Forgot to add that Memorial Stadium, dedicated to the World War II Vets, cost a "whopping" $3million!

I am a Tom Landry-era Dallas Cowboys fan. I never was lucky enough to travel to Baltimore to attend a game, but I absolutely loved to watch an NFL game played in beautiful Memorial Stadium. It's a real shame that the Colts left Baltimore. I know that I didn't like it when the Cowboys left the Cotton Bowl for a newer stadium, but at least they stayed in Dallas....... and of course, the legendary Cotton Bowl still stands. My memories of watching the great Johnny Unitas passing the ball to Raymond Berry and Jimmy Orr will live forever.🏈 God bless our pro football heroes from a by-gone era.

It's a tragedy that the NFL would let the Colts leave Baltimore. And act like they didn't want to give us a team we should have had an expansion team no way in hell Jacksonville or Carolina deserved a football team over us. But I'm glad things turned out the way they did I love my Ravens

In May of 1993 a buddy and I attended a minor league baseball game at Memorial Stadium. In the fourth a rainstorm paid us a visit. The public address announcer made a request for volunteers to help with the tarp. I was down on the field at nearly my "come and get it speed". I had attended some Colt games and numerous Oriole games. I had never actually been on the playing surface. Here I was in Brooks Robinson's office, John Unitas's office, Gale Sayers's office, Mickey Mantle's office. To top it off the announcer asked the those in the stands to applaud and cheers for us volunteers. About as cool as it gets.

The Bowie Baysox called Memorial Stadium in 1993, they drew an average of 7000 fans a game which is not bad considering they had to compete against the Orioles at Camden Yards. Next season they had to play at various ballparks until Prince George’s Stadium was ready for occupancy in mid season of 1994

It will never be the same again my father was one of the original 15,000 season ticket holders in 1953 I've seen many a games at that ballpark me and my father would spend summer over there my father passed in 1992 and whenever I see something about Memorial Stadium or the Baltimore Colts I think of him I still only live about 2 mi away

I learned that you could park 5 blocks west on the streets for free and not blocked it worked for the Os and the CFL Stallions, the Baysox had free parking on the stadium grounds, when the Ravens came they really cracked down on residential parking.

I went to several as a kid. My first game was November 1, 1964 against the San Francisco 49ers. The roar in that place was a sound I had never heard before nor since.

The reason why M&T Bank Stadium is one of the most daunting atmospheres in the NFL is mostly because of the fans traditions that began at Memorial Stadium carried over once the Colts left. The "O" chant, spelling out the letters, plus the reputation of being one of the louder places in the league. M&T may be a much nicer place than "The Old Gray Lady" but everything that you see in Baltimore today, began in that place.

The Colts lost a closeness to the fans. They were like a family. Those fans were something else.
