F... Selling Tickets to Opposing Fans

Yeah, normally the "F" threads go in the parking lot. Not this one. F you to all of the ass clowns out there that decided to sell their tickets to Steeler fans. Way to erase any hope of a home field advantage and embarrass the entire fanbase on national television. Cocksuckers.

I second that, it was pretty pathetic.

I can't believe so many people would sell their tickets to the opposing fans. I'm a Redskin fan damnit, give me your tickets. Redskins fans better not pull this shit again when Dallas plays.

I couldn't agree with this thread any more. You know how many die hard Redskins fans would kill to go to a game like this? And these p.o.s. mother effers sold out like it was going out of style. Friggin embarressing.

You're right, the lack of fans didn't cost us the game, it's just that it was plain embarrassing seeing FedEx Field looking like Heinz Field.

So... on third down when we're trying to come back in our HOME stadium, you've got no problem with the s load of crowd noise and terrible towels making it even tougher on the offense? REALLY?

i understand what your saying,and noughing bad to our fans, but if we cant convert third downs because of the opposite fanbase then thats sad. one thing thats seperates a good team from great team is not letting the opposing fanbase mess us up, wether it be home or away

Re: F... Selling Tickets to the Visiting Team

I have been to most home games over the last three years and I have to say that Fed Ex, always has more fans from other teams than I think is normal. There are so many companies, like the one I work for, that own seats, that are not even Redskins fans. The owner of my company is a Dallas fan, so he puts out contests for the tickets. Well needless to say, this was one of the few times that I did not win the tickets. I was disgusted and embarresed to see all the Pittsburg fans. It was flat out treason. I blame Snyder in some ways for it. The fact is that the average person cant afford to go to the games and that is why you have so many people that dont care about the Redskins that own tickets. I have always said that Snyder may not get the best results from his management style, but at least he tries. With that said, something needs to be done so that we never look like this again. If nothing else, lets take a page from the eagle, and for that matter the Steelers. Lets kick some ones ass, next time we see them wearing an apponents jersey. We have to do something, because I even heard the players saying that the punt block was caused by the noise. Come on, we need to take back our stadium.

First off Steeler fans do not act like Philly fans and they do not attack fans from other teams when they vist Hines field. Talking about price I could not sell my tickets here for $65 dollars on a skins site. Pit fans have been purchasing Skins tickets sense the day the tickets hit the market and have been grabbing them for months now. To say we should attack other fans is pure horse shit and is uncalled for.

It was astonishing to see 30,000 terrible towels waving in our own stadium. It was like watching my fiance get defiled on national television. Sorry, but a great many Redskins fans are verified d-bags.

The cost of season tickets is out of reach for most die hard fans. Being around DC alot of season tickets are held by corporations, lobbyists, etc and not your average die hard fan who makes 50k a year.

My ex's family/company has 5 front row season tickets and they never go to games or even follow the skins. they sell them for face value to whoever calls them first or dont even use the tickets at all. sadly they probaly represent 10-20% of the season ticket holders down in the lower level.

It is embarrassing but it is what it is, but i cant fault anyone because i didnt sacrifice the little bit of money i have to go to the game.

go skins!!

So that's why you didn't offer me tickets this year. Those were great seats! You need to call that girl back and patch things up.

I wouldn't blame it for the loss, but it is very embarassing to the entire Redskins fan base. You would never see that many opposing fans for games at Pittsburgh, Green Bay, Chicago or other teams with a loyal following. Not our finest hour as "The 12th Man".
