BALTIMORE — Surprisingly, the Preakness is not the most Maryland race happening this weekend.
The Crab Derby took place on Friday at the Faidley's Patio at the new Lexington Market.

Participants pick a crab and try to get it down the chute first.
It's a tradition that's been running for about 40 years.
After the race, people enjoyed a crab feast.
