We are part of the Council of Baltimore Ravens Roosts; an organization of over 50 Roosts and 3,600 members.  It is the oldest and largest Baltimore football fan club. You can find out more about the Council and all of the Roosts at www.councilrr.com .

We got started on October 10th, 1968 as Colts Corral #18, meeting at the Boulevard Inn. For many years, our club supported the Colts and our members became friends with many of the players. One of the highlights of that era was a trip to Johnny Unitas' induction into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1979 with two busloads of fans. When the Colts left in 1984, one of our members stayed out all night in the rain and snow as the Mayflower trucks rolled out and was there to greet the shocked players when they arrived in the morning.

With the arrival of the USFL, our club became a "Star" of the Baltimore Council of Stars in 1985. We had fun with the Stars players on "Bartender Nights" to raise money for charity. In June of 1986 we became the Professional Sports Boosters of Glen Burnie until NFL football finally returned to Baltimore. In 1996 we joined the Council of Baltimore Ravens Roosts.

Roost 18 believes in having fun! Our typical events include trips to see Ravens' away games, NASCAR races, Orioles and minor league baseball and basically anything involving sports and a good time! We also hold an annual bull roast, a dance and attend the convention with the Council of Baltimore Ravens Roosts in Ocean City.

As a non-profit organization, we support charities such as the Maryland Special Olympics. We also help various local youth and sports groups and make donations in the event of special emergencies. For a list, please see our Charities page. We are proud to root for the Baltimore Ravens Football club as they drive for the "Festivus"! We hold a tailgate party behind Bobby's Bar (2 blocks from the stadium). Led by Real Fan Dan, we do R-A-V-E-N-S cheers from Section 532.  If you see us or hear us, please join in - together we can rock the house!
