Baltimore is represented by two professional sports teams. The Orioles, a Major League Baseball team, have called Baltimore home since 1954. The Baltimore Orioles call Oriole Park at Camden Yards home. During baseball season, catching an Orioles game is a must-do. If you are able to attend, pay close attention to the emphasis that Orioles' fans into the National Anthem. The city of Baltimore is also represented within the National Football League by the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens call M&T Bank Stadium home. Be sure not to miss out on a Baltimore Ravens home game. The city comes to life starting the Friday prior to game-day with a tradition called Purple Fridays. Purple Fridays are when Ravens' fans wear anything purple in support of the Ravens.

The city of Baltimore is also a important part of history and therefor adorns several museums within the city limits. You can visit the B&O Railroad Museum, the Port Discovery's Children Museum, the Maryland Science Center, or even the National Aquarium in Baltimore. The aquarium is unique as it offers visitors a look into habitats and environments such as the rain-forest, the coral reefs, kelp forests, as well as covering the entire Maryland ecosystem from the mountains to the ocean. If you aren't into marine life, don't forget to stop by the The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore as its home to over 2,000 animals.

If you aren't into sports, no worries as Baltimore has something to offer for every walk of life. Near the Inner Harbor area is the ESPN Zone, Hard Rock Cafe, and Power Plant Live!. Power Plant Live! is a collection of bars, clubs, restaurants, and other businesses that become apart of the nightlife scene.

There is a great deal of information available about Joseph Despeaux in the Baltimore area.
