Gracelander Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 If this is a dupicate post then i'm sorry, I didn't see it in the search box.. But anyhow.. I got this email today, i'm trying to find my map of the lot to see where this new lot is going to be. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Great News!

mnb123 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Walking distance? So like 2-3 miles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsfan1311 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Walking distance?So like 2-3 miles? Probably closer. It looks like it will be adjacent to the RV lot and one of the green lots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Kaos Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 For anyone that has used or was planning on using the private cash tailgate lot, it appears to belong to the Redskins now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracelander Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 sorry for my ghetto map here, I don't have a scanner handy so I took a picture of my old map Do you think it will be closer to the blue lot's? Or up towards the Green side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or up towards the Green side? didnt think about the other corners.... duh! now that I look at it I would guess it's gonna be near where the map says Redskins Road.

Mark The Homer Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Well this is news! I believe those are woods there where the words "Redskins Road" are on the map. Note that Brightseat takes a sharp turn at the corner. My guess is they're mowing a bunch of trees down... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcreardon Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 So, it's not the Tailgate Lot? I hope it's not. I used that lot last year and it was great. I thought I was back to Metro. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Kaos Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Well this is news! I so wanted to tell everyone about this last week but was given the information off the record. Still no idea of exactly where it's going though. but who can complain about more on-site parking.... oh wait this is the stadium...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Kaos Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 So, it's not the Tailgate Lot? Nobody knows for sure at this point. We are all just speculating from the cross streets the Redskins have given in the e-mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 but they are closing 1 lot due to the new construction of condos right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 If they bought out the "Tailgate Lot" I'm gonna be bitter. That lot is a GEM compared to lots of "Cash" parking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark The Homer Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Wow! This is a major milestone in the GA rights movement. ... Interesting point. Q: What can the team do to make seats more attractive to new season ticket holders - and some of the more recent season ticket holders as well? A: Provide the opportunity for decent parking.

CM916 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I think my dad actually used to have orange passes while we still parked and tailgated with my brother at the far left end of the green based on the posted map. We had to leave a car in the red last year after giving up the club seats and it was quite a walk towards green so I am thinking my favorite spot where we have tailgated since the stadium opened must be along the fence around the middle of the lower left green zone.

MattFancy Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Here's an unrelated question...well sort of. How hard is it to find parking in the handicap lots on game day? My grandfather has season tickets and goes to just about every game, but he only has green parking and its starting to be a long walk for him at the age of 81. If anyone has any info it would be appreciated, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chamelio Salamander Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 The Redskins are clearing out trees on the brightseat road side of the complex. The new parking lot is actually directly behind where the old Sam's club used to be. Its quite a walk but within the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For info on whats available as far as handicap parking check here ~> http://www.extremeskins.com/showthread.php?t=287589 I cant speak to whats actually available on game days but it would seem from some posts here that there are available handicap spots on any given game day in the purple lot.

Thanks for the info! Yeah my grandfather has had season tickets for over 50 years now. He loves going to the games but its just getting too hard for him to make the walk from the green lot to the stadium anymore. It would just be much easier for him if he had a much shorter distance to walk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldysknzfn1 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Great, there goes our secret parking lot! That was the $25 lot wasn't it? Should've known....good things don't last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or up towards the Green side? It is that entire open area where the words "Redskins Road" appear in your map. No more parking across the Beltway, no more shuttle buses, all parking is on stadium property and within sight of stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
