PHOTO: Huge turnout for Ray Rice jersey swap offer
The longest line in Baltimore on Friday wasn't to buy the new iPhone 6, it was to exchange Ray Rice jerseys.
The Baltimore Ravens' official team store is offering owners of No. 27 Rice jerseys the chance to swap them for another player's jersey of equal or lesser value. It's a similar program to what the New England Patriots offered fans after Aaron Hernandez was charged with murder.
Not surprisingly, there are a lot of Ravens fans eager to unload their Rice jerseys.
