The Baltimore Ravens added an interesting new twist to their gameday experience in their convincing 42-21 win over the New York Jets on Thursday night.
Called “mixed reality,” it shows a gigantic raven swirling M&T Bank Stadium. While it’s an amazing addition to the game that has gotten plenty of attention, it’s also equally as terrifying if you aren’t expecting it.

A raven looks to be perched on top of the stadium before swooping down into the seats. The raven circles the bowl of fans with screeches throughout, before flying out of the stadium.
Baltimore was incredible in the win over the Jets, setting all sorts of records in the process, but this addition to Ravens gameday is something special. We are excited to see what else they come up with as home-field advantage in the playoffs could be decided this weekend.
Jets quarterback Sam Darnold was seeing ghosts when he played the Patriots, and now a giant raven flying around him in Baltimore. What’s next? Aliens?
