Coach Janky Spanky Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Did anybody ask about the former season tickets holder being able to go straight to lower bowl and get free parking thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just654 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Did anybody ask about the former season tickets holder being able to go straight to lower bowl and get free parking thing? Yes, I did. They pretty much said "leaks have stopped" joking. Larry used that line a few times with anything to do with Rumors. Then went on to the Loyalty Program.

Stugein Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I just got an e-mail that my seats are being moved to make room for the band moving back to the lower level. I like where my seats are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HouseBowlrz Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I just got an e-mail that my seats are being moved to make room for the band moving back to the lower level. I like where my seats are. One thing that was mentioned at the Fan Forum was the band being moved to Lower Level and I think they were in the 210s before being kicked upstairs to the Club Level. I'm in section 113/23 and, as far as I know, I haven't received any notification that mine are being moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rep is supposed to be calling me back today to discuss my relocation options. I like being in the end-zone. I don't want to move to a corner, but I don't want to move too low in the end-zones either cause it makes it tough to see the far end of the field. I'd be willing to move to the sides if it was inside the 40's but that won't happen; especially since I have 4 seats in a row. Edit: Typo, I'm in 211 not 111.

Move down from 211 to 111, move over one section to 212, or move around to 240 (price increase). I'm thinking 212 is my best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFKFedEx Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Glad to hear they're bringing the band back to where they belong. Hopefully the post game jams on the concourse will return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stugein Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Glad to hear they're bringing the band back to where they belong. Hopefully the post game jams on the concourse will return. Yeah. I mean, I liked my seats so I'm a little bummed. But for this I can be inconvenienced a bit. I also asked the rep to put in a suggestion for me; told them to put mics in the band box that play over the loudspeakers and to cut the mics on when we score so everyone hears the band rather than playing the canned/sing-along version of the fight song. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stugein Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Well I opted to get moved over to 212. We'll see how that goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsguy1 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Question to those that didn't renew: I didn't pay the invoice this year, with the intention of not renewing. However, my account shows a "past due" amount. For non-renewals, do you have to submit a letter or call to not renew, or is my account just going to show a "past due" amount until the ticket office changes my status in their system? Thanks, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Steinberg today had a good blog post recapping the fan forum. Also had a separate post indicating that Bruce said that the new stadium will be more intimate (read: lower capacity) than FedEx. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/wp/2015/04/16/fans-pepper-redskins-officials-with-comments-during-productive-forum/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonnyandSam Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I like that the band is moving back down to the lower level. But it sounds like the relocation of STHs is going to make it harder for some of us to upgrade on the lower level sideline. Oh well..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70Chip Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Was also in 211 and got a very good move to the sideline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it sounds like the relocation of STHs is going to make it harder for some of us to upgrade on the lower level sideline. Oh well..... The cynic in me says that they are moving the band back to the lower level BECAUSE of the relocation of the STHs, and because they've not been able to sell out the lower corners regularly. By doing this they fill a big block of end-zone seats, move anyone from those seats who still wants to pay to the corners or sidelines into existing unsold seats. The net result is they move butts out of the club end zone into the lower bowl, and shift unsold seats to the club level standing room section, which doesn't show up on TV.

70Chip Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) They didn't push the upgrade - actually started with what was available in the same price range and I certainly could have had a roughly comparable seat to 211 but asked what else might be available.

The net result is they move butts out of the club end zone into the lower bowl, and shift unsold seats to the club level standing room section, which doesn't show up on TV. I used to sit in a lower corner and now just beyond a lower corner section. They were always full; no empty seats. Yes sometimes they were from the other teams. But I don't think the band move is to try to improve the appearance of empty seats. Quite frankly, the lower bowl is almost always completely full even late in the season when we suck. I think they just realize the band move to the Club level turned out to be a bad idea. Part of the reason for moving the band to the Club level was to give them more space and a larger more modern changing room and room to store their instruments. I don't think they realized how hidden they would be on the Club level. Also, the Skins are eliminating the Club level standing room "seats"; so that kills that argument also. No problem being cynical with this team. But I think they are just correcting a mistake they made a few years ago. Frankly, they are going to lose revenue by using a section for the band in the lower level. They had plenty of unsold Club seats; which is another reason they made the move back then IMHO. I had a discussion with the team CEO at the time about the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTennant Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Also, the Skins are eliminating the Club level standing room . . . Are they? I have been wondering about this. Allen said that they are eliminating the standing room. Did he say that all will be eliminated? From what I read that he said, there was no differentiation between SRO in the upper deck and club level. Was he just talking about SRO in the upper level? I assume that they are adding club seats where the band was. I have a hard time believing that they will be adding more club seats in the other endzone too since they appear to be a tough sell. -ct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Think they are eliminating the club level SROs in order to mitigate crowding in the club level concourse, which folks were apparently complaining about. The upper level party decks should still exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
