Michael Phelps is a showstopper.

During the Baltimore Ravens’ 22-19 preseason win over the Carolina Panthers on Thursday, the team stopped everything to watch the Olympic legend add another gold medal to his collection in the men’s 200-meter individual medley.

Once Phelps won, the players resumed the contest.

Panthers and Ravens players stopped on the field to watch Phelps win his 22nd gold medal.

Baltimore proud.

Phelps is from Maryland and is a noted Ravens fan, so the crowd reacted accordingly, via ESPN’s Darren Rovell:

According to NBC, the Ravens also aired one of Phelps’ victories in Beijing during a 2008 preseason game.
