Being an avid Ravens fan I'm pretty sure I will still get WJZ (Baltimore) but correct me if I'm wrong....Sussex Co. seems like Eagles territory??? I know if it comes to it I can always go to the Green Turtle and watch the Ravens. We did that last October and the place was filled with Ravens fans. This is assuming there will be a season this fall...

I don't know about that....I DO know of many Ravens fans, including my husband. I've observed that many Eagles fans are from around the Philly area. My husband is from Sussex County and claims that many native Sussex Countians are Ravens fans-- so you might be in luck

I was just getting ready to say....here in Kent County, the sports fans I know tend to support the Ravens, Orioles, and Shore Birds. Although, the Phillies have a good number of fans here. The fan choice is not as defined as it once was, though, because so many PA, NJ, and NY fans have moved here.

I think you'll find a split. Sussex gets much more of its media from Baltimore and Salisbury (another MD city), so the Baltimore teams have a pretty good share of fans in Sussex. The shift to Philly is more pronounced in Kent and certainly NCC.

I can drive around Philadelphia all day long for work, and maybe see one DE license plate for every 80 PA plates, and 30 NJ plates.

Except for the sports games. When I'm down at a game, it seems that I see a DE plate for maybe 2 PA plates. I always thought it was exceptional how many Delawareans know every block around the stadiums in Philly but yet not any other part of Philly. Die hard fans no doubt.

I grew up in Milford and we were always Phillies and Eagles fans. Of course, there were no Ravens then!

I think since Flacco went to Delaware a lot of folks are now on the Ravens train.....My wife never watched a FB game until the Ravens went to the Super Bowl.....Now she has more Ravens junk than I have....It's her first team ever..(we will forgive her for being a Yankees fan when she was a kid)...Looking forward to DE...Close in 2 weeks....
