2009 Spring Football Festival

Date of Event: 4/25/2009
Time of Event: 3pm
Location: M&T Bank Stadium, Baltimore MD

12th Annual Spring Football FestivalBaltimore’s two biggest sports franchises have teamed up to offer fans a unique double-header. The Baltimore Ravens and the Baltimore Orioles have packaged together the Ravens’ Spring Football Festival with an Orioles’ home game against the Texas Rangers to offer fans two great events for one ticket.

On Saturday, April 25, the Ravens will hold their 12th annual Spring Football Festival, presented by Verizon Wireless, at M&T Bank Stadium starting at 3 p.m. The family-friendly event consists of various elements in which fans can participate, including interactive on-field activities, a locker room tour, player autograph sessions, Poe’s Mascot Game and watching the 2009 NFL Draft live on SmartVision and TVs throughout the stadium.

Immediately following the football festivities, the Orioles will host the Texas Rangers at Oriole Park for a 7:05 p.m. game. By purchasing the SFF/O’s packaged ticket, fans automatically have admission into the baseball game. The first 10,000 fans (age 15 and over) will receive a Draft Day O’s/Ravens rally cap presented by MASN.

“We are excited to come together with the Orioles and offer fans two great events for one affordable price,” said Ravens Vice President of Marketing Gabrielle Dow. “Our goal is to provide a day full of sports entertainment that is feasible for the whole family to enjoy during these tough economic times.”

"This day represents a continuation of the partnership between the city's two sports franchises," added Orioles Director of Communications Greg Bader. "We are excited to provide Baltimore sports fans the opportunity to cheer for their hometown teams on the same day."

In order to participate in the autograph sessions during the 12th Annual Spring Football Festival at M&T Bank stadium, fans must obtain the official autograph wristbands. Wristband distribution for the Autograph/Photo Session is located near the entrance of M&T Bank Stadium. Fans must obtain a wristband for autograph sessions at the autograph kiosks located near the entrance of the stadium. There, fans can see which players are signing as well as times and locations of each session. The wristband distribution area will open at 2:00 p.m. Each autograph signing is limited due to players’ time commitments. Fans may choose only one (1) session to attend for the day. This is to ensure more fans receive autographs at the event. Only one (1) item per player will be permitted. Once receiving your wristband for a session, it is your responsibility to be in line at least 15 minutes prior to the start time. All children’s wristbands must match the adult who is responsible for them. Children will not be allowed into an autograph line without a parent or guardian. Autograph sessions fill up fast and there is no guarantee that when you arrive at the event there will still be sessions available.
