cricket Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 and don't forget to dress in your Sunday best, you know Cricket will be there snapping pictures like a mad woman I do believe that time has stopped. A "Mad Woman"? Really? (yeah, you are correct)... I hate to rain on your parade (wait, did I just quote old people?) but after 3 whole years at 8 home games each season, plus 2 pre-season games, the DDP's in the Spring, a couple of D & B off-season events & the HOF ceremony and game tailgates in Canton last year...I am taking a well deserved break from the camera this year. As fun as it was--snapping a couple hundred pix at the tailgates (pre and post of course) then loading them onto the computer (thanks to Skins N Bones for his assistance with that every time) and then loading them all onto ES for viewing...I am taking a break... Anyone want to step up and take over as the unofficial ES photographer? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? HTTR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forehead Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hey, I'm going to ask this here and see if anyone has advice as to my plan. As we all know, traffic after games is a *****, even with post tailgating. Especially for those of us going south, things are all well and good for a few miles, then you're stuck in bumper to bumper traffic going around the south end of 495, past the harbor, till you get to the mixing bowl. On really bad days, this stretch can take almost two hours, even if you waited 2-3 hours after the game to leave. So with the new staging area and proximity to Landover Road, I've got a new idea in mind. Follow Landover Road around to Rt. 50, take that into D.C. where it becomes New York Avenue, go down 6th street, right on Constitution, and then over to Arlington. I have to take this route to drop a friend off after games. This avoids the Beltway entirely, but I have to make sure of a few things. Is New York Avenue a two way street the entire way? Most of my time in the city is spend in either NW or SW, I've haven't been up NY avenue past Chinatown in years. The last time I did was in college, when I was trying to cut through DC on 50 the whole way, and I got lost up in NE somewhere. I don't remember 50 being easy to follow. Has this improved at all? Does anyone else go this route, or a similar route? Is the traffic any better? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also go South on 395 from Rt. 50, and it is a straight shot to Arlington via the SW Freeway and Rt. 27. Either way you take, it will be much quicker than trying to take the Beltway. Should take about 45 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsfan44 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I mean, I'll have my camera, but inevitably, I start eating, drinking, and cooking, and I forget about it. I hear you. I bring my camera too but bar tending keeps me busy. I use to take a ton of pics in the early years of the tailgate and post them up, but since I became the Bartender I just don't have the time anymore. Then cricket stepped up and she has been doing an awesome job of it the last few years, but I do see her point in all the work that goes into doing this. I hope someone can step up this year and become the ES/RR tailgate photographer. It would be a shame to not have any pics to look back on and to also remember things that happen during the tailgate that you might have forgotten due to all the adult beverages. :hysterical: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InsaneBoost Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 When you are finished tailgating you put everything in a bag and leave it in the space right, unless you have one of those trash bins near you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
