  • Sending you an early "Happy New Year" from Baltimore Heritage! Join us today in Hampden, where a disco ball gets dropped every year on New Year’s Eve. Just how did the tradition of dropping balls and other items get started? Find out today! Thanks for watching and see you in 2024!
    This is our series called "Five Minute Histories." Every week, we’ll record a short video about a different historic place in Baltimore and post it on our Facebook page and RUclips channel.

    Happy New Year. Thanks for the great videos in 2023. Here in Hagerstown a giant donut is dropped to ring in the New Year. 🍩

      Yum! Any reason why a donut?

      @baltimoreheritage1006 Krumpe's Donuts in Hagerstown are loved by many so they sponsored the drop and give away 5000+ donuts to the hungry crowd.

    Great video! We've seen a duck drop at Havre de Grace but are still hoping to see the muskrat drop in Princess Anne. Happy New Year John's and all the 5 minute team!

    Easton, PA, drops a crayon because it's the headquarters of the Crayola company.

    Fun! There's nobody running around in a diaper over here, but the Arcadia neighborhood in NE Baltimore has been dropping our own ball from a sailboat mast since 2006, with a hilltop view of the inner harbor fireworks, too.

    How do I complain about a Hillsdale College ad preceding your video? That sham of a college has no biz advertising on your channel. It's just a far right propaganda mill.
