Seeing the team off!

NikiH · Post by **NikiH** » Mon Jan 02, 2006 1:24 pm

I wanted to greet the team last night and I never got confirmation of when they'd be home or I would have gone. There were a number of fans that went but I am going to see them off. I'm on a quest for info now and if I get it I will PM it to whomever thinks they can make it.

I cannot drop everything and head to Tampa for the game, I wish I could. So, I'd like to let them know they have my full support before they leave the area!

This is probably not all that helpful but Brian Mitchell said the team would be leaving for Tampa on Friday

If anyone had information about how I might be able to see the team while they are in Tampa, please let me know! I just want to be able to see the team and give some support since I can't afford to go to the game.

Redskins.com says Tuesday off, practice Wed and Thu, leave Friday.

Please do, NikiH. One thing is for sure, though, they won;t be flying on "The Official Airline of The Washington Redskins", unless, of course, it's Independence Air's last flight.

If you post it publicly, i would imagine that they'll move the location.

My 2 cents

I think the team is leaving from ashburn around 3pm friday... trying to get some details.

I will be at REDSKINS park late, around midnight after the game to welcome them back... hopefully some of you can join me.

Do they actually return to Redskin Park following a game??? Just wondering. I might be interested in going.

ExtremeSkins seem to be meeting up at Redskins park or something on Friday. I dont know if their thread will lend any hints.

Niki, you thought of this first... but here's what they are doing.

Right now, here's the "official information."

Departure from Redskins Park on Friday: 2:45 p.m. (Fans can arrive at Redskins Park around 2 p.m. Don't go earlier. Meet elsewhere if there's a party. We'll update with that information if a party comes together).

Approximate arrival at Redskins Park on Saturday: 11:30 p.m. (Fans can arrive at Redskins Park around 11 p.m. Don't go earlier. Meet elsewhere if there's a party. We'll update with that information if a party comes together).

OFFICIAL GATHERING PLACE

Kirkpatricks Irish Pub
44050 Ashburn Village Blvd
Ashburn, VA 20146

(703) 724-9801

The GM will finalize this with Huly but they will probably offer drink specials and give ES (im sure any fan members) members a special part of the restaurant.
Possible gathering place for overflow:

Old Dominion Brewery has been contacted. They hold 160 people. They will not allow drinking in the parking lot but are encouraged to have people come out. They close at 10 p.m. They hope to see a group show so fans can gather here and migrate.

I live here in Tampa and on a local radio station they mentioned that the skins arive later today. They were also ripping the skins all morning, it was freakin kinda funny but painful for a hour long listeners called up giving there Redskins jokes

Punu · Post by **Punu** » Fri Jan 06, 2006 12:07 pm

yeah im not interested in partying with everyone either... just chill'n with some of us HOGS and my buddies....
But I can only make it sat night if anything, i'm working all day today to get tommorow off. I think it's gonna be exciting today though, team is pumped up! Jackson should have fun if he goes.

I, of course, got stuck at work yesterday. There have been many Friday afternoons where I've had absolutely nothing to do, unforunately it wasn't yesterday. Scott, Jackson, and I are going to try to be there this evening to greet our team and welcome them home. We'll look for you there Punu! ;-)

11 PM tonight at Redskins Park... If I can find a DD, I'll be there. That might be tricky coming from downtown since everyone I know is ready to party.
