Fields of Play
When the Ravens came to Baltimore in 1996, they began play in Memorial Stadium, which had previously belonged to the Colts. However, the stadium was old and inadequate, and was torn down in 2001. The 1998 season marked the opening of brand new PSI Net Stadium. In 2001, the PSI Net company went bankrupt, and the stadium was simply called Ravens Stadium. Some fans wanted the stadium named after Johnny Unitas, but it was renamed M&T Bank Stadium after a contract signed with M&T Bank.
