No, admission to the Maryland Zoo is not free next week

Sorry to burst your bubble, everyone. Despite what some circulating messages might say, there is no free admission to the Maryland Zoo next week, zoo officials said Wednesday. The message, which zoo officials said is from an unaffiliated Facebook page, claims the zoo is free for all visitors from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. on Sept. 18 — but, to be clear, it is not.
