Baltimoreans are a rare breed. There are some things Baltimore natives do in every day life that would seem insane to outsiders. Check out this list and see if you relate to any of the following:
- They shout “O!” during the National Anthem.
Flickr / Keith Allison It’s tradition and not meant to offend.
- They’re into the most peculiar art.
Flickr / chris dilts With so many creative people around Baltimore, art (especially one-of-a-kind art) can be found everywhere.
- Even the Christmas decor is a little crazy.
Flickr / oh_candy Nothing says Christmas like Hampden’s quirky decorations.
- They put crab in EVERYTHING.
Flickr / Jeff Weese Crab omelets, crab fries, crab pasta…
- And they’re really into Old Bay.
Flickr / Like_the_Grand_Canyon There’s even an Old Bay parking garage.
- They call this fashion.
Flickr / Dorret At Baltimore’s annual Hon Fest, anything goes.
- It’s like they just go around inventing words.
Flickr / Nick Hall You from Bawlmer, hon?
- They really get into this whole Purple Friday thing.
Flickr / Phil Romans It’s considered good luck.
- They eat sauerkraut at Thanksgiving.
Flickr / floovo This side-dish tradition started in Baltimore decades ago, and now surrounding counties are picking up on this delicious trend.
- At the end of the day, they embrace the weird.
