Problem #1.

Fan Appreciation Day. My friend of 17 years is having a celebration since she's leaving for College around 2pm on Sat. Does anyone know what time the day will begin/end.

Get a new friend

Problem #2.

I work from 2pm-10:30pm Mon-Fri. I won't be able to make any day practices unless I go to an early morning practice. My grandfather lives in Greenbelt MD, about 15 min. away from 6 Flags. How long would it take to get to the stadium from his house? (guestimation) Also, what times are the 9:30am practices over? I need to know so I'll know what time I need to leave to get to work on time.


Camp is not at the stadium, it is in Asburn, VA (about 5 minutes from Dulles airport. It should take about 45-60 minutes from Greenbelt depending on traffic (9 am practice = rush hour).
Problem #3.

Boss Hog, do you still have T-shirts availabe? I probally will just get one, but I may get 3 so that my father, grandfather, and I can wear them when we watch games. I'm thinking about one though, just to hold me off till I purchase my authentic Portis jersey.

Problem #4.

How early do I need to get to Skins park on Sat. so that I won't be in a line for 3+ hours? Also, is it hard to see at the practices?


Judging by the turnout the passed 3 days I'd camp there if I was you. Honestly, I doubt I'll go to Fan Apprec Day...I'll let the kiddies have that day. Try to go to a mid-week morning practice. They should be less crowded. The views are fine, especially if you are tall. The earlier you get there the better the spot. Binoculars are a plus. A flask of whiskey is optional.
