skinsngibbs4life Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I can't tell you how tired I am turning these games on and seeing only 2/3 of the stadium full at half. For once, can we have all of our fans get into their seats early? and have the sold out crowd be in their seats at kick? PLEASE, I want this place to be loud from the start, so everyone PLEASE get in the seats early, and make it known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like Chicken Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 It's too bad that this game wasn't moved to 4 o'clock. That would've helped the noise level (more time to drink) as well as the 'people in the seats' issue (more time to get to your seat). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 i thikn 1pm is a great start to get butts in the seats.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 You might want to post a thread on the Cowboys board as well because they will make up a good part of the crowd. 90,000 seats is a joke does much more harm than good :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phixius Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 90,000 seats makes up half of Redskins fans and opposing fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Someone might want to alert the Cowboys, too. They think this is their home away from home. :doh: http://cowboyszone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69295 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roqnap1 Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I haven't missed a kickoff and I don't plan on starting anytime soon.. I went to Green Bay to see a game once...those fans are intense. They are in their seats 10 mins before kickoff and very few move until the game is over. I had never seen anything like it. If only it was like that here....Football games in DC...it's a social event for too many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jofizz Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 This is a huge pet peeve of mine. Most every other stadium in the NFL is filled to capacity at kick-off. We are lucky to have half filled when the coin is tossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjfootballer Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 No. I'm gonna stand in the isle when they kickoff. J/K I'm all the way in South Carolina and don't have tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsngibbs4life Posted November 4, 2006 Author Share Posted November 4, 2006 But still, I would love to hear some "we want dallas" chants go down before the game. I know we will give the gameday crew hell out in the parking lot, but we need that kind of enthusiasm in the stadium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Gibbs II Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 im going to get there at least 30 minutes before kickoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiggoReincarnated Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 What percentage of the stadium do you guys honestly think will be Dallas fans? About 10-20%? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only it was like that here....Football games in DC...it's a social event for too many. It's so true. And I'm so sick of seeing the stands 1/2 empty. Get here early. Tailgate. Socialize. Eat, drink and be merry. And then get to your seat and be present to watch the football game (remember? oh, yeah, the game!).I can't stand reading the threads that blame lack of being on time with high beer prices! "Well, if beer was cheaper, we'd leave our tailgate sooner and be in the stands." If I want to tailgate, I get to the game hours early. I'm tired of people posting - Can I leave my house at 11:30 and make the game? NO. Get your ass in the car at 8am (or 6 like the crazy-faithful :laugh: ) and get there. Party. Enjoy. BBQ with your friends. Pump each other up! Carry on with complete strangers. And get in your seat!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like so many businesses go here and use the game as an oppurtunity to network. It sucks. Because a lot of the time, these people could care less about football, and don't contribute to the atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiggoReincarnated Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 What time does "We Want Dallas" chant start? Around 12:45/12:50? Will we have the majority of the stadium participating? I tried to start it towards the end of the Titans game, but it didn't catch on with the fans in my section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will we have the majority of the stadium participating?I tried to start it towards the end of the Titans game, but it didn't catch on with the fans in my section thats probably because there were no fans left at the time. But seriously, after playing as bad as we did that game, do you really think everyone would want to get into a dallas chant? But by all means, please try and start one before the game on sunday.

At the Jacksonville game, the check I got was so half-hearted, I wondered why they even bothered at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonnyandSam Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 You are preaching to the choir here. Anyone reading this board is intense enough to be there early for every game. The problem is ticket prices are so high that people sell some of their tickets to newbies who don't understand you cannot arrive 15 minutes before kickoff and actually be in your seat. Too many casual fans instead of die hard fans attending all 8 home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
