    Here's a rough itinerary of our plans:

    Friday 10th September: Arrive in Baltimore about 9pm. Will probably nip out for a beer and some wings before getting some sleep.
    Saturday 11th September: College Game - Either Maryland-Morgan State or Navy-Georgia Southern. Not decided which yet but if anyone is going to either and fancies a meet up we'll tag along.
    Sunday 12th September: Catching the 1pm games in a bar, some more wings, then heading up to Toe's for travel the following day.
    Monday 13th September: Travel to New Jersey to watch us kick the snot out of the Jets.
    Tuesday 14th September: Some Baltimore related activity, probably the aquarium, then food in the evening.
    Wednesday 15th September: Washington during the day, food at night.
    Thursday 16th September: My birthday!! Heading to New York by bus for the day, leaving 7am and getting back to Baltimore at about 11pm.
    Friday 17th September: Baltimore related activity, possibly the Sports Museum. Then Yankees @ Orioles.
    Saturday 18th September: Watching some college ball in a bar, more wings.
    Sunday 19th September: Bengals game in a bar, would be nice for a big meetup here for anyone who can make it. Need a recommendation of where to watch it too.
    Monday 20th September: Relaxing day in Baltimore.
    Tuesday 21st September: Spending the last of our money on whatever we can find and then fly back to the UK at 9pm

    Feel free to suggest things to do in the area!

    All Brits should be required to tour the Battlefields of North Point and Hampstead Heights (now Patterson Park), and Fort McHenry!

    If you need a refresher on the War of 1812, read this:

    Then recite the Star Spangled Banner before any football game that you watch.
    In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

    Wasn't the rest of the world busy fighting Napoleon at the same time? :grbac:

    Do we get to sing the Star Spangled Banner as badly as you guys do sometimes? (touche) :hammer:

    Gordon-
    No go on the trip to Cinci? We have not purchased tickets/airfare yet.
    Our 4th dropped out so we are trying to recruit at the moment.

    I think its a no go unfortunately. The Saturday-Monday bit of it would take too much out of our holiday and we're still waiting on the result of Katie's interview to see if we'll have extra spending moohla.

    Will you be downtown?

    If so, the Cincy game is the day after the Baltimore half marathon. Myself and the fiancée will be in town for the race and will most likely take in the game watching in Fells Point, typically at Max's on Broadway. We are staying at the Hilton Garden Inn on S. President Street.

    Yeah we're staying at the mount vernon hotel. Not the nicest hotel in the world but we got a great price and considering it's literally just a place to sleep at night it got good reviews for being well run. Definately meet up for a beer on the Saturday or for the bengals game.

    Hit me up on Facebook, Gordon.

    I have some contacts with local hotels and might be able to get you a decent rate at a hotel in Fells Point. You'd save a little money not taking a cab down from Mt Vernon at least.
