The ESPN Zone Closing in Baltimore & Other Cities

If you enjoy the ESPN Zone restuarant in Baltimore, Washington D.C. or in several other cities, there's some bad news in store for you.

Today, the Baltimore Sun and other news outlets nationwide reported that the Walt Disney Company is shutting down the store/restaurant off Pratt Street in the Inner Harbor and other locations in Chicago, New York, Las Vegas and Washington D.C.

The only locations that will remain open are in Los Angeles and Anaheim, California. Most think that the economy, change in cinsumer spending habits, competition from bars and other businesses did the ESPN Zone chain in.

The Inner Harbor restaurant has held many events for the Orioles, Ravens and other local athletes. It's sad to hear of it's demise as I've gotten to know some of the staff there over the years.
