80 Greatest Redskins Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Monday, Sep 12 Washington Redskins vs Steelers. Previously, going to Fed Ex field and seeing those towels everywhere was disappointing. I think if we could get a Burgundy Towel giveaway that day commemorating our Washington Redskins amazing last season and East Title. The best part would be that the "terrible towel" would fit in perfectly with our Burgundy and Gold color scheme. What better way to welcome other fans into our stadium.They wave, we wave harder. I think this would be a great idea Mr. Snyder. HTTR !! signed John Slagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Ugh. Worst experience I've ever had at FedEx (and that's saying something) was that game. What an embarrassment that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A burgundy towel giveaway would be a great way to leverage the Terrible Towels to our advantage. A sea of Burgundy and Gold! Cool idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Greatest Redskins Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 Any help that we can provide our Washington Redskins! It was Mark Rypien that beat them last November 17th 1991. We need to win that first game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Hmm. Hate to be the curmudgeon here, but I absolutely remember that game and officially despised the Steelers from that day on. But you know what pissed me off more? Snyder being so embarrassed that we DID do our own "burgundy towel" thing the next home game. It was against Dallas following a bye week. We still lost. Want to make me happy? Do our own thing instead of copying someone else, starting with beating the steelers so damn bad they use those terrible towels to wipe their tears away instead.

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Yeah, I also thought it was embarrassing when we broke out the towels the next week. In fact, the next year and a half were just littered with embarrassments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 No. Do your own thing. Towels are way too overused and that's the Steelers thing anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Greatest Redskins Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 I bet when you get blocked with that terrible towel behind and in front of you by Washington Redskins fans that sold their ticket to Pennsylvania fans, you may reconsider. Five straight losses, 3 of those games we didn't even get double digits. First win of the year or our first loss. Pittsburgh Steelers (-2.5, 51) at Washington Redskins. I pick Kirk Cousins and his Washington Redskins this day Monday, Sep 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 No idea what you're trying to say with that last post. The steelers fans that buy tickets are going to do their towel thing regardless. I said us trying to do the same would be awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hail2skins Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 I bet when you get blocked with that terrible towel behind and in front of you by Washington Redskins fans that sold their ticket to Pennsylvania fans, you may reconsider. The amount of Terrible Towels at FedEx on September 12 will reflect our fanbase. I know that there are plenty of corporately-owned seats in the lower and club levels, and you really can't help Steelers fans getting into those. Otherwise, if Skins STHs can't make it to that game and sell out, I don't know what to tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Beating those jackasses at FedEx would go a long way towards giving me good vibes for 2016. I'll never forget that damn game. That was officially the beginning of the end of the Zorn era and the descent into Darkness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingGibbs Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Nothing worse than lack of originality and copy cats. I say we give all the Redskins fans spears and dare Steelers fans to wave their towels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo'sRangers Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I like to idea honestly....but HATE copying anything "Steelers". That's the thing; the towel is their thing, much like the "Hogs" (snouts, cross-dressing, and scary:) are our thing. Lets just kick their ass. That will be good enough for me. Let symbolism happen as a natural occurance of events....don't force it. We will form our own new identity under Scot/Gruden. That's ok by me.

illone Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Does it have to be towels? Why not water guns filled with piss, or something useful like a poop filled water balloon to throw at the steeler fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mayor of Fed Ex Field Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 The only good towel is the "21" towel from The Bills game after ST passed. Even the "Do you like that?" towel was whack. No more towel's. PS: If you do have a "do you like towel", don't ever throw it at your girlfriend/wife after she um, (insert you know what) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
