Below is a list of information for the nationally-televised Monday Night Football game between the Baltimore Ravens and Detroit Lions, presented by Dunkin', at M&T Bank Stadium (Sept. 22, 8:15 p.m. kickoff).
ENHANCED LED WRISTBAND GATE GIVEAWAY & DUNKIN' GIFT CARDS
With the Ravens donning their all-black uniforms, fans are encouraged to wear black for this primetime showdown. "Darkness There and Nothing More" sets an ideal stage for M&T Bank Stadium's renowned night game light show in the stands.
All fans will receive an enhanced LED wristband – featuring double the number of lights of last season – that syncs to stadium music throughout the night, beginning with pre-game ceremonies approximately 20 minutes before kickoff. (Fans are encouraged to arrive at their seats no later than 7:55 p.m.)
For the first time in the NFL, the stadium wristbands will create immersive animations – including ravens flying through the crowd and dynamic patterns – boosting fan integration into the gameday experience like never before.
Additionally, the first 15,000 fans in attendance will receive a $5 Dunkin' gift card.
PLAYER INTRODUCTIONS: OFFENSE
Baltimore's starting offense will be introduced, just after "Darkness Falls" upon the stadium. The Ravens will incorporate fans' enhanced LED bracelets and a distinct LED stadium lights system into player introductions, creating a vibrant sequence of effects and "blackout" moments. Fireworks will also be shot off from the stadium's upper bowl ring before kickoff.
HONORARY CAPTAIN: CARMELO ANTHONY
Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame inductee Carmelo Anthony, a Baltimore native, philanthropist, entrepreneur and 10-time NBA All-Star, will serve as Monday's Honorary Captain.
