Crab cakes and pizza on the line as mayors make bets on Army-Navy game

The Navy Midshipmen are heading to New York Saturday looking to take home the second win in a row, but now there is food on the line.

Annapolis Mayor Gavin Buckley and Highland Falls Mayor Joseph D’Onofrio have made a friendly wager ahead of the Army-Navy game Saturday. If Navy wins, D’Onofrio will send Buckley the best pizza from New York. If Army wins, Buckley will send his Highland Falls counterpart crab cakes from Boatyard Bar and Grill.

“Crab cakes are synonymous with Annapolis,” Buckley said. “And so I think that you can’t come to Annapolis and not have a crab cake or you haven’t really been to Annapolis,” Buckley said.
