Baltimore had it done to them with the Colts. I was 2 when it happened so i dont remember it but there are plenty of people in Baltimore who 30+ years later are still not over it despite getting the Ravens 20 years ago.

Its pretty interesting because theres a Johnny Unitas statue out front of M&T and a couple of Baltimore Colts players in the Ravens Ring of Honor and the Ravens kept the Colts Marching Band which never disbanded when the Colts moved.
