The Baltimore Ravens found an incredible way to pay tribute to Michael K. Williams, the late actor who died on Sept. 6, before their game last night with the Chiefs and it’s a moment that will give you chills, especially if you’re a huge fan of The Wire.
Williams played Omar on the legendary HBO show that was based on the city of Baltimore. His infamous whistling of “Farmer In The Dell” is something fans of the show will never forget.
The Ravens played that whistle before the team took the field last night and man was this pretty darn cool/special.

So good.
David Simon, who created the show, heard it on his way into the stadium and had the perfect reaction to it:
To be clear, I’m not crazy, The Ravens did that.
