The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

Guys/Girls I am really getting excited for this season. Don't get me wrong, I am really excited for whats to come via the offense/defense,special teams but mostly its going to be the first time that I am going to see a game in DC. This will be one of the greatest memories for me in my life. I was really excited to see Washington in person two seasons ago on SF but I don't think that this is going to remotely compare. I'm sure many of you know how I feel. I really do plan on going all out. I am going to get good seats no matter what the price. I've been looking at ebay and stubhub. If anyone knows of any other route I should take then let me know. I need 4 tickets but mostly 2 for me and my wife. Her BF lives in DC and her boyfriend is an Eagles fan so if they don't come I really don't care. Hell, I get a bit arrogant anyways so it might be good for him not to come.

Anyways, I felt the need to share this with all of you. I'm sure that you know how I feel. You've all been there before.

If the Eagle fan comes, make sure you get seats next to CP's mom.

AMEN !!

I know what you mean Fc20. I have been to a few Redskins games but never one in D.C., until this year. I will get to see the Carolina game after Thanksgiving and I can't wait. Once the season starts and tickets are officially released, you will have a much easier time finding tickets.

You're letting your wife date an Eagles fan?!?!

Maybe he means BEST friend.

Common, where have you been. Don't you remember BFF...Best friends forever. I had two older sisters and I was lazy last night. Yeah, my wife, her best friend, her best friends boyfriend (Eagle's fan) and myself.

I am just really excited. I am going to this game spacifically b/c my sister is turning 30 this year and I am coming out for her birthday. She up and went to Jamaica and I missed her wedding. I only had a two week notice but I still feel bad.

When do the tickets get released?

Don't get too excited. It depends on the fans you sit near. Where I sit, a majority of the fans are weak. Old lady reading the newspaper, no one really cheering, etc. Don't get me wrong, I love FedEx and the skins, but the fans could be a little more exictable.

Trust me, the excitement that I am going to bring will draw the people out. You should have seen me at the AZ game this past season. I had all the skins fans singing the fight song when we scored. What was awsome is some of the players said after the game that they were shocked b/c they felt like it was a home game with our fight song and all. I'm telling you. That was an awsome experienct. This will be one for the books though.

That just means you need to make more noise. At the Tampa play-off game last year there were maybe 2-3 skins fans around but I made as much noise as I could. You should be so excited that is does not matter what is going on around you at the game but the fact that you are at Fed Ex field watching the game!

I live in Phily and go see the Skins beat the Eagles every year. It is great no matter how many ignorant Eagles Fans I am around. So I envy you just having Redskins fans around.

Tickets are usually sent out the last week of July.

I promise to be as loud as I can. I'm sure that I won't have a voice after this.

THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!!

If only I didn't get rid of two seats ......I would have hooked you up. Sorry, but with the prices going up I just couldn't afford all four no more. I wouldn't have hooked up that Eagle fan though! I hate Eagle fans! But, I'm sure you'll find seats that are much better than mine though! My advice would be to buy them before the preseason ends, because they'll cost alot more if the Redskins start off the season like they ended last year's season!

I know. I'm going to do it in August I think. I would like to be in the 200's but on stubhub they are about 225.00 each. Is that normal? Hell, I got great seats on the 20 yd line 15 rows up in AZ for $55.00. I don't expect that good of a deal but I want to be close.

Thanks, I'll remember that when I'm at the game and your waiting for the next huricane.

Probably meant some player from Miami. Otherwise, that's the most retarded thing I've ever read here.
