Hey, man I thinking about showing up Sunday too. I'll PM you my number if I do.

I am thinking about it. I normally go but really there is not much to see. I wish they would move it back to Carsile, PA. One of my favorite parts of summer was going to see them scrimmage in Labotrobe against the Steelers.

Redskin Park is just to damn small to host all those people.

I agree. I liked Frostburg better than Carlisle, though. To me, Ashburn is *too* accessible and it ends up being overcrowded. I choose to skip training camp these days.

BTW, who are these guys?! If I recall correctly, this picture was taken one score minus 14 years ago.

(Has Joe fallen off the face of the Earth???)

Frostburger was nice, I also went twice, I think they were only there maybe three years. Frostburger was cool becuse it was so far away not many people came out. Carsile was cool becasue you actually had stuff to do at night. I like the bar the Candy Shop, or somethign like that.

I remember when spurrier brought the team to Carlisle he just complained the whole time about there not being any good golf courses around here.

Who knows whats up with Joe. I think a few of us have tried reaching out to him over the years but he doesn't respond.

I will probably go one day next week, either Wednesday or Thursday. If anyone plans on going those days, let me know!

I've never been. Can you just show up or do you need to do anything in advance?

Slingin Sammy 33 · 07-30-2009, 12:42 PM

I'll be there on the 5th.

I got VIP passes to camp back in 2005 and it was pretty damn sweet. We got to park in the players' lot, like 3 cars from Portis. Also, at the time (not sure how it's set up now) we got to watch from a roped off area to the side. After practice, if the players didn't feel like walking down the path that runs along where the majority of the fans were they could walk around our area so we had a better shot at getting autographs.
Like I said, this was a while back, but it should still be cool.
