Summary |
In March of 1984, a moving company secretly packed up the Baltimore Colt's belongings and snuck off in the early morning, leaving a city of devoted fans in shock and disbelief. The Colts were an integral part of the city, and fans struggled to cope with losing the team they loved. For 12 years the city was without an NFL team, but the band continued to play, acting as musical ambassadors for the city, keeping football alive until the NFL returned. Includes director's statements, and more. |
