Baltimore Ravens upgrade stadium with 177 flat panels


New displays adorn suites at M&T Bank Stadium.

For the 2005 football season, M&T Bank Stadium, home to the National Football League’s Baltimore Ravens, has equipped its suites and club level with 177 high-contrast, widescreen flat-panel displays. The displays, manufactured by Panasonic, include 116, 42in plasmas and 61, 32in LCDs.

The stadium’s suites and club level had been outfitted with conventional 20in displays for nearly eight years. The stadium’s operations staff worked with the Maryland Stadium Authority’s Technical Committee to select the new displays.

The displays complemented other improvements ranging from expanded seating to re-designed in-stadium retail stores. Most of the 42in plasmas were installed in more than 100 private suites, while all of the 32in LCD displays were placed on the stadium’s club level bars and lounge areas. At one bar, for example, six, 20in TVs were supplanted by 12, 32in LCDs along with two 42in plasmas. All displays were installed prior to the pre-season kick-off last August.
