Ravens pay tribute to late superfan Mo Gaba with cutouts in stands
The Baltimore Ravens will honor one of their biggest fans Sunday when they host the Cleveland Browns in their season opener.
The Ravens filled a section of M&T Bank Stadium with photo cutouts of Mo Gaba, a Baltimore superfan who died of cancer in July at the age of 14.

In total, 575 cutouts have been placed in what the team is calling "Mo's Rows," according to Jonas Shaffer of Baltimore Sun. Mo's mother, Sonsy, also helped paint the "mo" in "Baltimore" gold in one of the end zones.
"It's just hard to believe that my son left behind a legacy just him being himself," Sonsy said in a video produced by the Ravens. "He did nothing out of the ordinary and what he did in 14 years of his life, I can't help but be proud of him."
