Oct 20, 2002: Johnny Unitas and 7 of his Hall of Fame teammates were enshrined into the Ring of Honor at Ravens Stadium in front of a sellout crowd of 69,173 fans. A bronze statue of Unitas' likeness was sculpted by local Baltimore artist Frederick Kail and dedicated at Gate A, newly named Unitas Plaza. In a joint effort, the Baltimore Ravens, Art Modell, the Steve Bisciotti family, and others commissioned the project. Enshrined with Unitas were: WR Raymond Berry, RB Lenny Moore, DT Art Donovan, DE Gino Marchetti, TE John Mackey, OT Jim Parker and LB Ted Hendricks.
