lefty420 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I think any upper bowl seat is good. I will be in 423 next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike21 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Upper Level Seats are sweet. The only that sucks about them is getting there..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdoublebass Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 Good, I got me and my granps a set in 416. Secondly there is no way he can make it up for a long walk(that is how I am taking it when you say getting there sucks). Is there like a elevator or golf cart guy to take him up a ramp or something?

Yes, if you take your grandfather to the elevator, they will give you a blue pass and allow you and him to go up the elevator. My dad and I have season tix in 428 and he now has a hard time making it up, so we did that all last year and they were very good about it.

InsaneBoost Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I sat there all of last season in row 24. Here are some pictures: Also keep in mind, yes I am up high, but the camera I used has some sort of wide angle feature which makes things appear to be further away than they really are. I'm not sure what it's called, it's really not a wide angle, but it's the best I could come up with. As far as what one member said, I don't know if they actually give you a blue wrist band, I think you have to request them and pay for them, I don't think you just walk up and say can I have a blue pass please. You might want to look into it. Also. If he can ride up escalators, do that, it's much easier and the section is about 4-6 rows to the left after you get to the top. If you need any questions answered please ask I'll do my best to help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff in D.C. Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I'll be in section 404 for the Rams game. Does anyone know if that section is in the shade most of the game for 1pm games? (assuming it's sunny of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more going to the customer service people and waiting in a line. You can walk straight in to the tunnels from street level and take the elevator all the way to the top.

Mark The Homer Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 You are AT a Redskins game.... it doesn't get any better! Hard to argue with that.... Dude, what row are you and grampa in? If he's really that bad, maybe you can sit in the wheel chair seats at the bottom of 414... I'd call and check on that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegionOfDoom Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Go through the A-Gate where the TO is. Inform the ticket person of your issues and you will sent to the line for the elevator. Let the elevator attendant know you are headed to the Top. I didn't see the Blue Passes during the 1st 2 preseason games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: actually, the TO is closed and I don't think it'll open again until game day... section 416 row 27 seat 23,24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff in D.C. Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 404 is on the shady side of the stadium. The whole game? I'm just wondering because my dad can't sit in the sun for too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FightingIrishman Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Take Sun-Screen... if it is Sunny you will cook in those seats... unless you go to a late season or night game it is much more comfortable. When I mean cook ... I mean roasted like chestnuts on an open-fire until they pop. Be real careful and stay hydrated. I don't recommend beer in that section in the sun. You'll end up in the infirmary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark The Homer Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 section 416row 27 seat 23,24 Is he spry enough to jump up 27 rows? That's two from the top. You might shoot for the wheel chair seats. They are unassigned, I believe - meaning they go to those who need them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FightingIrishman Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Im going to that one too... but sitting in 141... Oct 18th should be much more manageable than Sept or early Oct for sure... Those sections in the Sun .. I call The Hurt Locker during the hot weather games. Still you'll be in the sun, bring sun-screen and stay hydrated. Even if its cloudy, you'll get tore up with blisters for a 1pm game. Face ears etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InsaneBoost Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Yeah definitely give them a call, Row 24 is a hike for the family and I and were not elderly, you will definitely want the handicap seat for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had no problem at all last year and they didn't charge us for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
