Mark The Homer Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 I'd prefer corner. The corner give you some sort of reference when the ball advances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins-Canes-Mounties Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I would take corner. In theory, you will move down to the LL faster if you are closer to the 50s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hieverybody Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I don't know if this is the appropriate thread or not - but can I get an opinion? I just put down a deposit for my first year of season tickets and requested end zone (vs. sidelines) in the 400's. Here's my question: which do you prefer? Corner end zone or straight behind the goalposts? The endzone seats may or may not be better, but they are definitely a better deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knuckles Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 The endzone seats may or may not be better, but they are definitely a better deal. Yeah - being in Rhode Island now makes me a little hesitant to invest much more... but we'll see how the season goes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsNatsFan Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Wow man! That's amazing.So it was all pure luck? There were no premium seats involved, and GA tenure and longevity played no part, correct? No premium seating. Just a long time GA ticket holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark The Homer Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 But to get to midfield of the lower level you have to sit in the end zone at some point. I had 426 row 3 last year which were great seats but figured I had to put my time in the end zone in at some point, why wait?I got moved to the lower level this year. Not bad for my second year with tickets.:laugh: *EDIT* I also added two more seats! LaxinFish29 - When and how did you find out you were upgraded?

capcrunch98 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I would take corner. In theory, you will move down to the LL faster if you are closer to the 50s. Based on my conversations with TO this offseason, the sole criteria for determining your place in line for moving to the LL is what row you're in, not what section you're in. I am in Row 2 in the UL end zone, and was all but guaranteed I would be moved downstairs if I opted for the upgrade because of my row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capcrunch98 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I have a hunch it's going to take a decade or more to advance from the endzone to between the 20s in the lower level. It may even be impossible when you consider the existing seat holders who have had tickets for a generation or more, the tailgate clubbers (AAA Fan Zone), and the TD clubbers, all of which have priority. Also, the tailgate club and TD club can transfer their season ticket rights. I think this is absolutely correct. And another thing to keep in mind when debating whether to tough it out in the LL end zone for a few years in the hopes of eventually moving around to the sidelines: prices are sure to increase significantly the next time the Skins advance a few rounds in the playoffs, and the most significant price hikes will certainly be in the lower level. $99 lower level sideline seats are a good deal compared to comparable seats for other teams and other sports. Those prices will be in line for a big boost (and possibly PSLs) if the market heats up enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOF44 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Those prices will be in line for a big boost (and possibly PSLs) if the market heats up enough. I think a lot of tailgate club seats are being abandoned. Forever you could not move to the LL. Now a lot of seats are opening up. This could change with the state of the economy and the play of the skins. But short term I think things will remain pretty stable. As for PSL's, I don't think they would ever be instituted in a stadium that has never had them. I don't think skins fans will face those until we get a new stadium. Have PSL's ever been introduced into a long existing stadium?? I've never heard of it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebluefood Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Mark: I have a question about bringing Redskins paraphernalia into the stadium. I doubt you can bring full fledged flags into the stadium, but what about large pennants on a small, slender, wooden pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll help you smuggle whatever you want into the stadium if you bring up lots of Parker's BBQ with you. Famous Dave could take a lesson from good ole Parker's!!!!!!

I doubt you can bring full fledged flags into the stadium, but what about large pennants on a small, slender, wooden pole. The flags aren't a problem. But the poles are. Back in the day, I used to bring an six foot flag pole with a Redskins flag in. I'd lay it down across the aisle and wave it back and forth after touchdowns. But after 911, they wouldn't allow poles like that because it could be used as a weapon. What the exact restrictions are as far as length and girth, I don't know. It might be a judgment call by whoever is patting you down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Taylor Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I noticed I can no longer view my invoices to see my seat assignment when I log into my account on the Redskins website. This just started yesterday. I wonder if that's due to the activity from ESers checking for upgrade progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skins-Canes-Mounties Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Yeah mine is gone too. Maybe they removed it since May first has passed. Or maybe it was moved so that late payers can still pay and get their old seats, and recently relocated persons cant complain when they end up with different tickets from the ones on the invoice. I guess nothing is set in stone until tickets are in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh! I found it. You're right. I think they just removed a short cut. I clicked on Account Settings. Then View/Pay Invoices. Then click one of the invoice buttons and click continue. That brings me to the screen with all the details: section, row, seat numbers, green parking, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
