Classy gesture, whatever it is.

Maybe it's an automatic stand-by generator for the Super Dome.

Re: Ravens to give City of New Orleans a "generous gift"
Considering the write up, I speculate it is a donation to a policeman's fund such as the NOPD Tragedy Fund or some other fund sponsored by the New Orleans Police & Justice Foundation. Any money given to that group would be great, I think.
I'm actually anxious to see what they do. A classy gesture indeed. Has anyone ever heard of a team doing something like this before?

The Ravens have decided to show gratitude to New Orleans with a gift.
And the gift, we’re told, is a pair of 2013 Harley Davidson FLHP motorcycles, donated by the team to the New Orleans Police Department Traffic Division.
The announcement will be made by receiver Jacoby Jones at a Wednesday morning press conference.
The Ravens also have purchased an advertisement in the New Orleans Times-Picayune expressing thanks “to the citizens of New Orleans, including your outstanding police department, for your warm reception and first-class service to Ravens players, coaches and fans.”
It’s a unprecedented gesture by the Super Bowl-winning team to the host city, and we have a feeling it will become a trend.
Especially if the Ravens can repeat.Last edited by HoustonRaven; 03-06-2013 at 10:47 AM.

“When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. That’s the Baltimore Raven way.” - Steve Smith Sr.
Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!

Pretty cool gesture.
No team has done this before?

Really nice gesture from Bisciotti.
I think the Ravens are the first team to do this.

Great idea by the Ravens. The winning team should do something like this for every host city. Bisciotti and the Ravens once again lead the league in class

Re: Ravens to give City of New Orleans a "generous gift"
New Orleans was really a great venue for the SB. To me that seems like the best place to have a SB.
