As you may have read or heard, this year's Ravens training camp at 1 Winning Drive in Owings Mills, Md., -- which will be the sixth since the departure from Westminster Md.'s McDaniel College in the summer of 2011 -- will be virtually devoid of fans coming out to experience the joy of practice.
The Ravens have been actively in the training camp expansion mode for a while now as they quietly purchased some of the properties around 1 Winning Drive. They started the redo and renovations just after the 2016 season. This summer, the renovations will make it a training camp with only a few community groups allowed inside.
The long-term gains, which will include a substantial uptick in fan capacity, will be a plus for the franchise and it'll give the team many more options at having "training camp" fan experiences.
