Take a look at some of the sights 3News caught at the first public training camp in the video below. 

Fans told 3News that some lined up as early as 8 a.m. to get into Saturday's 2 p.m. training camp.

This year, a second grandstand was added to the practice facility to accommodate more Browns fans at the public practices. 

At each open practice, the Cleveland Browns will invite season ticket members to watch practice from a VIP area.

Many fan favorites returned to Berea this year, including the Puppy Pound, the 40-yard dash, Browns Pro Shop and Aramark food and beverage snack shacks.
