How To Watch Ravens Games Out Of State

So, you're a Ravens fan, but you've flown the coop! Maybe you chased a dream job, followed a sweetheart, or just needed a change of scenery. Now the big question looms: how on earth do you watch your beloved Ravens dominate from outside of Maryland?

Option 1: Embrace the Local Flock (or Start One!)

First things first: seek out your fellow Ravens brethren! There are Ravens fan clubs scattered across the nation, waiting to welcome you with open arms (and maybe a crab cake or two). You'll find them through online searches, social media groups, or even just by asking around at local sports bars.

Can't find a flock? Become a shepherd! Gather some friends, slap on some purple, and transform your local watering hole into a mini-M&T Bank Stadium. Imagine the bewildered stares as you erupt in cheers after every Lamar Jackson scramble!

Option 2: Unleash the Power of Streaming

The internet is your friend! So many streaming services are willing to show you the game. Remember to check the fine print. Some black out local games, which is why you're reading this in the first place!

NFL+ is a great place to see if the game is being streamed live in your area. Otherwise, you can watch the game on delay.

YouTube TV is another option that includes local channels. Make sure it carries your local CBS, FOX, and NBC affiliates (the ones likely to broadcast the games) before you commit. It's like channel surfing from the comfort of your couch... but on your laptop!

Option 3: Satellite to the Rescue

Sometimes, the old ways are the best ways! A satellite TV package, like DIRECTV, can unlock the coveted NFL Sunday Ticket. This is like having a golden ticket to every single NFL game, every Sunday.

Yes, it's an investment, but think of the possibilities! You can invite all your (out-of-market) Ravens-loving friends for weekly watch parties and become the envy of the neighborhood. You’ll have so many screens, it will look like you run a sports book.

Option 4: Befriend a Bartender (or Become One!)

Sports bars are your best friend when you’re out of market! Find a place that caters to out-of-town fans and is willing to put the game on. Be polite, tip well, and become a regular.

If you are charismatic and outgoing, maybe it's time to moonlight as a bartender yourself! You can guarantee they show the Ravens every week, and maybe even sneak a peek during your shift.

Option 5: Radio Waves to the Rescue (Seriously!)

Okay, this might seem a bit old-school, but hear me out! Many Ravens games are broadcast on the radio. Imagine yourself firing up the grill, cracking open a cold one, and listening to the dulcet tones of the play-by-play announcer.

There are apps that let you listen to local radio broadcasts, no matter where you are. Tune in and let your imagination fill in the gaps.

The Most Important Thing

No matter how you choose to watch the game, remember the most important thing: cheer loud, wear your purple with pride, and never, ever give up on the Ravens. Even from afar, your support makes a difference!

Now go forth and find a way to watch some football! And remember, even if the game isn't going our way, we're all in this together. Go Ravens!
