Mmmmmmmmmetro


Metro is going to be a pain man, especially when leaving.


That is soooooooooooo not true !! Much easier than sitting in that parking lot waiting to move. Jake and me take metro every game and it's so much easier, not to mention much cheaper than a parking pass. We pay $5.00 each round trip for the bus. Can't beat that ! :lol:


Sorry, I meant the Subway, my dad was talking about taking the Subway there, and I figured itd be kind of crowded, not on the way there, but on the way home when everyone wants to leave, I guess well see.

The train isn't any more crowded than it would be on a traditional 9-5 weekday run and, the further you get from FedEx, the more seats open. I've never had to stand for more than a couple of stops

The ones with "broken" straws do all kinds of things, caused me to switch to frosty mugs. Great idea when it comes to beer, but I suffer when it comes to other drinks :cry:

So I picked up the Tix's and our parking pass is for RV9? Anyone have an idea. On the map the only thing I have for an RV lot is on Redskins Rd and whatever that main road is. Let me know what you regulars think.

You should check out http://www.redskins.com/fedexfield/

Itll probably have a fair amount of info, it also has street names and such on the maps, so maybe that could help you.

I personally have never been there so I wont be much help, sorry man.

Do any regular drivers have a recommended route from NOVA? I have the green parking pass, but am not sure on the best way to approach the stadium. Thanks!!

Take 495S towards Richmond. Take exit 16 in Maryland. Turn left off of exit ramp onto Arena Drive towards FedEx Field. Follow signs to green lot.

If you get there when the lots open at 9am you will encounter very little traffic. After 11am it gets much heavier.

THanks. We're aiming for a 10-10:30ish arrival. Do you have to go to parking via Arena Drive?[/quote]

No, you can take exit 15 or 17.

We decided to take the Metro in tomorrow from Rockville. I know its going to take about a hour or so but so that we don't get a dui, its just safer to do that. I'll see you all tomorrow.
