Max?s Taphouse in Fells Point threw a party recently just to say thanks to all the men and women in blue who put their lives on the line every day to keep us all safe and out of harm?s way. Loyal patrons, radio celebs and police officers ? off duty, of course ? gathered for the celebration, which included a bagpiper from the Emerald Society. Said Taphouse manager Bob Simko: “These men and women don?t get enough credit or appreciation for what they do.” Donations, proceeds from the auction and the sale of specially designed T-shirts added up to $3,500 for the Fallen Officer Fund.
