Re: Looking for Advice from Season Ticket Holders
First off, upper deck rules when its only for a year or two. You're just to darn excited when you become a season ticket holder that you just don't care where your seats are. But, the experience you get on the lower level really is second to none. For instance, back in 2005 when we played the Cowboys......Terry Glenn had been shut out until the 3rd quarter. He caught a little screen pass then went running down the sideline. Sean Taylor squared his shoulders up then WHAM! I heard that "pop" all the way in my seats! Or when you see Andre Carter slam the offensive tackle then haul ass for John Kitna...............Kitna just laid down and took that safety. Andre would have killed him if he didn't lay down. The experience you get from being down close can't be compared to the upper level or even the club level.
I moved down to the lower level after just one year. I became a member of the tailgate club to do it................................it was VERY expensive for that one year, because I had to make "down payments" on the tailgate club. Its a one time thing and.................IT WAS WORTH IT MAN!!! Not only do you get a all you can eat barbecue, you get to see a cheerleader performance, meet some Redskins Alumni...................Dexter Manley was my favorite player growing up. I saw him a few times there and he signed a football and a jersey for me. It was great to be FINALLY getting his autograph! Charley Taylor has been there and he stood up on the stage and said a few things then offered to answer any questions we had. It was kind of weird, because we were basically interviewing him ourselves. A bunch of other Redskin greats have been there..................Anyways, once the game ends you get to go to the club level and join in on the 5th quarter party! The party ends when Danny Boy wants it to. Sometimes that will be 5 hours after the game!
So what I'm saying is I recommend that you inquire about the tailgate club and see if they won't move you down to the lowerbowl sooner. Its expensive, but not as expensive as club seats. And if you got money..........................IT IS WORTH IT MAN!
