jbone Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Hey fellow Skins Fans, I'll be flying out from Cali to DC to catch a couple of games this season. Haven't been to DC since I was a kid. Anyway, just trying to get some opinions on seats..It's come down to end-zone Dream Seats, or 50 yard line-ish 100's preferably on the Redskins side. Probably will be going to the Saints game, as well as Giants later on, and hopefully Dallas as well... Also, if anyone can recommend some decent hotels to stay in DC or MD close to Fed-EX Field, and bars etc . Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allsup Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 If you are looking for the best up front action take the end-zone seats. If you can afford the seats, get them. Seats for the 100 level will run you $110.00 at cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbone Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 Cool, thanks for the info, I was leaning toward Dream Seats anyway..Maybe I'll get to hang out with the Portis family.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enter Apotheosis Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I'd take seats on the 50 over end zone seats any day. There's a fair amount of luck involved if you really want your money's worth sitting in the end zone. Seats on the 50 are solid bet regardless of what happens.

Cliffmark1 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 I'd definately say Lower Level seats are the way to go. I like being near the 50 but some people like the endzones. If you have to, club level between the 40s is pretty slick--best view of the field outside of the owners boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crackerbaby00 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Take the 50 yardline seats. The only thing that will make the endzone seats worth it is if a player signs some stuff before/after the game or dives into the crowd after a TD. 50 yardline seats will never be bad IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuadsaif123 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 u cant go wrong with 50 yardline seats although u could go wrong with endzone if the wrong team scores in the endzone your siting in or if most of the action is happening on the other side of the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Ted Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 there arent very many good bars around fed-ex field, maybe some over at the Blvd at the Cap Center but thats it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSkins8921 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Well it sounds like you're going to more than one game so I'd say mix it up, end zone dream for one or two, 50 yard line lowers for the other(s). Either way has gotta be ****ing awesome. I've never sat in any dream seats, but I've sat in end zone like 12th row and it's pretty awesome, second best seats I've ever sat in and we had a Vinatieri missed field goal come into our section haha. I've also sat in 50 yard line 7th row and those are ****ing amazing, best seats I've ever sat in by far. So yea, from personal experience the 50 yard line lowers are unbelievable and end zone lowers are pretty awesome too, but I think end zone dream seats would be amazing, it would be awesome having the possibility of the Redskins scoring a touchdown right in front of you like that and hopefully with this new offense they'll be doing lots of scoring on both ends:D If it was me then I'd go dream seats the first game, 50 yard line right around the 5th row(then you're really close but don't have the players in your way) the second game and then if you're not buying them all at once then decide which I liked better. If you're buying them all at once though I'd go dream, 50, dream. If you're getting them all in the same place then I'd go dream all the way, it's gonna be awesome even if we don't score in your end zone but between three games I'd say the odds of the Skins scoring in front of you are great.

Cool, yeah I was going for 50 yard line Dream Seats at first, but was worried about the sidelines blocking my view, but if you say 5th row and up is good than I'm gonna go for those first, than decide later for the other two games.
