Baltimore Ravens players decided to kneel during the national anthem to protest social justice before Sunday’s game against the Steelers kicked off, and their own fans at M&T Bank Stadium were not happy about it.
The PA announcer asked fans to join the players for the moment to ““embrace kindness, unity, equality and justice for all Americans,” but that didn’t go well.
Fans responded by booing loudly.

Maybe they were booing the team’s offensive woes.
Ravens have been outscored 63-7 the past 6 quarters

Given the military presence in the area, that’s not a huge surprise.
