SonnyandSam Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Today I received an email from the Redskins ticket office on a related parking question. I received what appears to be a "stock" reply which answered my question. But it also said cash parking was $40. Wasn't it $30 or $35 last year? I park in the red lot; so my apologies if it was $40 last year and I did not know about it. Just thought you cash parkers might want to know. :2cents: (Sorry, I looked for two twenty dollar bills rubbing together but did not find it. The search function doesn't work well.... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFKFedEx Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Brilliant. This will further drive up demand for the already limited number of parking passes in circulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammemphis Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Been to many games and the constant moaning over standing up at a football game has led me to watching the game on my plasma in HD. Don't have to pay to park and can stand up and cheer all I want. Enjoy the game, just don't get kicked out for standing up:doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DButz65 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Not sure about parking but i heard that beers will be $10 each this year, sucks for you beer drinkers that dont bring your own and tailgate before the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its pretty simple if everyone is sitting, stay seated, if a good play happens, sure jump up and make noise and appluad, if not sit the hell down, you dont have to stand to make noise.

MissU28 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Just get to the lot before the attendants get there (8:00am or earlier) and you won't have to pay. I used to do this all the time shhhhh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfather151981 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Just get to the lot before the attendants get there (8:00am or earlier) and you won't have to pay. I used to do this all the time shhhhh! I usually arrive at the cash lots at about 8:30 AM (for a 1 PM game). They aren't charging until 9, but they come around and charge you once the lots are officially "open." That's been my experience at least, but then again I also have a parking pass in that lot and I only pay $20 per game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfather151981 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I have season tickets and a parking pass in the cash lots, so I only pay $20 per game. But it wouldn't surprise me if cash parking went up this year. I don't think that Danny's allowed to use Metro buses anymore to transport fans to the stadium due to a law that Bush signed this past spring, so now presumably he has to pay more to a private charter company to transport the fans, thus the price hike. I don't mind parking off site and taking the bus over (so long as I can still tailgate), but I would have a problem paying $40 for the luxury of doing that. There was a running joke on here at the end of last season that beer would probably go up to $10 this season. I hadn't heard that it was an official change, but I guess we'll all find out next Saturday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobags95 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Yes there isn't enough parking, but the problem is that they allow people without season tix to keep their parking passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll cut my game beers from 1 a quarter to 1 a half :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Find the threads here about the "Tailgate Lot." Its $25 (was 20 before last season..boo...) and is CLOSER than half the cash lots and even some of the regular lots. The only reason why I even give this away is because I've never had a problem getting a space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLusby Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Economics guys! When GREEN parking sells on the secondary markets for $70-$100 it's an obvious conclusion that the cash lots were under valued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttr77 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Not sure about parking but i heard that beers will be $10 each this year, sucks for you beer drinkers that dont bring your own and tailgate before the game. Is this from a reliable source? I'm not doubting you, just curious if this is really true. And if so, this is where I draw the line. I don't even drink that much INSIDE the stadium...but come on Dan. You are making hundreds of millions of annual profits per year. Must you milk every penny from your loyal patrons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooley4President Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 If this price increase is true, it might be worth the cost of a season book for them. I pay $200 for a season of cash lot parking, and I know cash lot sucks, but when you can't get green parking what are you gonna do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
