If my girlfriend got me tickets, she'd never be my ex.

yes there is a metro stop, there's actually two of them, they have a shuttle running from the metro to the stadium every 5 minutes. (Landover) When at the metro just as an attendent, you'll get there easy, but leave an extra hour early!
Tailgating, as for that, we'll have a special thread a week before the game for whoever is gonna go. Cuz I would like to meet everyone... Just check the game day forum Sept 3rd or so. Hope to see you there.

We take the bus from Landover every game... Cheaper (so far - I think they are still not charging for parking at that stop) and very easy. Also, thehogs.net are tailgating in the Green Lot this year from what I understand.

If you have a parking pass the best way to go from the VA area. Is to take 395 into DC and go past the wharf and hop on 295...go past benning road and RFK and take route 50 towards Annapolis...BOOM saves 20-30 min... instead of having to go over that stupid woodrow wilson bridge....and if you tailgate you can get some killer seafood at the wharf on the way up.

Just got word theres a new metro stop walking distance from the field!

Muchas gracias, señor. You're the "bomba". :up:

The closest stop now is the Largo Town Center stop off of the blue line. I would imagine they have shuttles running from there now too, but not certain...but like the other posts said, that or the Landover stop off the orange line will get you there.

thanks alot for the info everyone, its been a great help, thanks
