Lol I watched the first season and part of the second. It seemed really good. I should go back and watch the rest sometime

I work there

It sucks

There is the under armor hq but not sure what touristy things they have if any. Next door to that is ironically the Domino sugar factory. Sometimes huge ships come in to deliver stuff to them. Next to under armor hq is a free ferry that takes you to Thames St which is full of bars/restaurants

I never been to any of the museums. The aquarium is cool. Parking sucks in general. Try not to pay over 12$ for 8 hours. You could try to see a baseball game.

Traffic is not so bad on weekends but they might have events that block the streets which cause traffic

Thanks for the info. Not into baseball personally. That's funny, athletic clothes and pure sugar right next to each other

Harbor area is cool. Johns Hopkins was neat.

Went there for a couple days for Maryland death fest a few years back. I ate at a couple good restaurants and the bay was ok but the city was pretty trashy and I'm not interested in going back

That's too bad. Well we'll only be there around one day. What made it trashy?

A lot of very obvious criminal activity out in the open. People sleeping on the streets everywhere. I went to a couple nicer parts but they weren't much to speak of

I drove through it a couple of times going down to Virginia and back.

I was born there and my family's from there

Try to avoid some of the crime ridden areas, drove through there once with my brothers and we saw two crime scenes back to back. Not a great experience

I don't know if you're into history but I'm pretty proud of Ft. McHenry. that's a good place to visit

I've been there twice, both times to go to Orioles games. Didn't do anything else there.

There is also the horseshoe casino

And south of that is the Maryland live casino
