HOF44 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I received this email from the skins about getting club seats for 2 years then you can change to the LL for doing that. With the TD club and TG club I had figured ever getting an move from the upper deck would not be possible. This just confirms it. Why not just cut the crap and charge a seat license for the lower level? Who knows though, with the way the team is playing people may not go for these high priced offers much longer. I think if I was paying 5K a year I would really have to reconsider. Here is the email. Dear Redskins Season Ticket Holder: Right now is the best time to upgrade your Redskins Season Tickets in time for the 2007 Season.

Gallntfox Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Yeah...sound like a great deal! Wonder if your lower level seats will be behind a pillar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what is your complaint here?He is saying that your only chance of getting the Skins to move your season ticket package from the upper level to the lower level is through the purchase of really expensive club seats.

stwasm Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Don't worry. If management continues to operate the way it does, there will be plenty of upper- , lower- and club-level seats available throughout the stadium, since no one will want to come.

RumpofSteelSKIN Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I have 3 years left on my club seat lease. 3 whole years. After having them for 8 years now, I look forward to the day when I can be done with that albatross. Not worth the money to see this garbage they've been rolling out there just about every year.

Mark The Homer Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 All the ten year club contracts that were signed when the stadium opened in 1997 expire after this season. That will leave a lot of empty club seats. Snyder is looking for creative ways to fill these seats; hence, the 2 year club contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you may be right. There were alot of empties in the stadium yesterday. A 90K seat stadium coupled with a failed Gibbs II (if it does fail) could see the skins scrambling to sell their club seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the visiters side accross from me at about the 10 or 20 yard line was a huge block of empty seats in the lower bowl. I had never seen that before.

scuppajones Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I got this email too, no way am I giving up my upper level seats and pay triple the money for 2 years just to move to the lower level. I'm hoping I can move down a little in the upper level after this year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsWizCubsDukes Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Hopefully we can get some fans that actually stay to watch the whole game, and that actually will cheer loudly for the team. The stadium is so flat for having that many fans, I swear last season we were just so much louder. Yesterday was a playoff game and we still had a chance to win and people poured out tof the crowd... Maybe Snyder should sell single game tickets or package tickets to real fans not just people with a lot of money to blow that could care less about the team.

HOF44 Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 Yeah...sound like a great deal! Wonder if your lower level seats will be behind a pillar? Speaking of that anyone who does this might want to get specified in writing the yard line area and row area of the upgrade they promise. Or you might be behind a pillar. Cause that is a lower level seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tastes Like Chicken Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 If u see empty seats 10 minutes before and 20 minutes after halftime, that's people who are visiting the restrooms. The lines are insanely long and beer doesn't help that issue But yeah there were a lot of empty seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow thats crazy, I wonder what kind of promotion he will have to offer after a 4-8 season. Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
