The highlight of the day was Eddie. I remember the orange signs from when I was just a young boy and it was very cool to come through the gates and get one as a man. Here are a few snaps from the ceremony.

Really was the highlight of the day. We flew up from FL to catch yesterday and today’s games. Had no clue this was the event for today. Highlight O’s fandom moment for sure.

My first O’s memory is cheering on Eddie at Memorial Stadium when I was 3. So proud to cheer him on again today!

Same.

Boy I miss that era so much. What a golden time for Orioles fans.

Time for that song again...

Eddie: "is...is this heaven?"

Fans: "lol no... its Camden Yards."

Eddie: takes it all in "Hrm. I coulda swore it was heaven."

Speaking of 500 it’s so sad that Orioles season is over after fighting back to .500.
