Fans holding “Free Palestine” flags were tossed from Camden Yards during a Baltimore Orioles-Cleveland Guardians game Wednesday night.
Video from The Baltimore Sun’s Jacob Calvin Meyer caught the moment Camden Yards security walked down to seats close to the field behind home plate and ordered the fans to leave.
Three fans were spotted, two of whom waved their flags as they walked up the steps. Fans booed and jeered the demonstrators before the video ended.

This is not the first time we’ve seen “Free Palestine” activism at a sporting event, and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar comes to mind. Fans were spotted at a Group A match between the Netherlands and Qatar holding up a large banner that stretched across multiple sections.
This is only one example of “Free Palestine” signage and flags at soccer games.
