They need more off lot parking besides the cash lot. I would suggest a parking garage but that would be a nightmare and if more money gets invested in this stadium I dont think we will EVER see the day when we move back to DC.
But if they wanted to keep putting jumbotrons in the parking lot during tailgaitings hours that would be a beautiful thing.

Yeah Snyder is saddled with this albatross he didn't build. I know people like to crap on the experience but I can't bring myself to blame Snyder too much for it.
First, if we didn't suck every year people wouldn't give a crap about the "experience". 95% of the "experience" is the game.
Second, the logistical limitations of the stadium are vast and essentially not improvable. None of them are his fault. He didn't build the thing or locate it where it is.
Third, Snyder has done some stuff to make it better. The escalators he put in. They are a god-send. Cooke should be dug up and shot for building the stadium without them. Then he basically paid an entire year for those stupid private shuttles out of his own pocket because the gov't screwed him. Then he did his best to fix it by leasing and buying as much land as he could near the stadium to create new lots so they could get rid of the ridiculous shuttles.
Fourth, the games still sellout. Why the heck would he spend any money to make it better when the games are consistent cash-cows? Until people actually start showing they care with their wallets I don't blame him much for the perceived issues.
