Ravens honor late Michael K. Williams with ‘The Wire’ tribute

The Ravens honored the late Michael K. Williams on Sunday night during their pregame introductions

The Baltimore Ravens came out on top in a thrilling Sunday Night Football matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs during Week 2 of the 2021 season. Baltimore won the game 36-35, but the memorable moments from the contest started before the opening kickoff happened.

During pregame introductions, the Ravens played a tribute to the late Michael K. Williams, who played Omar Little in the hit TV-series “The Wire”. His famous whistle of the song “Farmer in the Dell” was blasted all throughout the M&T Bank Stadium, creating an intense atmosphere while also honoring the late TV-star.

The idea was first brought up by a fan on Twitter, and it seems that the organization listened. It was a great way to honor the late-actor, and I’m sure many fans want the “Omar Whistle” to be a reoccurring theme during home game introductions for the Ravens.
