Football is here! Hail to the Redskins!

So I know its only preseason, but I'm already pumped for football. I'm looking forward to being able to going to UMD games as a student again, but I've been a lifelong Redskins fan all my life. I've been to FedEx Field once before, but that was in the nosebleed section since Dan Snyder assumes that all Redskins fans are rich.

Anyways, last friday I get a call from Tony asking if I had bought tickets for the game yet. I said no, he said no problem, meet me at my office at 4. I got clearance from the boss to leave early, and met him later that day. So we get to the stadium, and we don't have just tickets, we have front row parking passes, Touchdown Zone credentials, field passes, catered food and open bar, and a reserved table. I was starstruck before the Redskins "Ambassadors" came around talking to everyone. Here's a few pics of me and the ambassadors:


So after some food, drinks and entertainment, we went to go check out the field.



After going back for a few more drinks, it was time for the game. Here's a shot of the view from our seats. No zoom, we're that close:



So yeah, it was an awesome game, and I nearly lost my voice cheering for the Redskins. We scored 42 points and looked pretty good doing it. I'm hoping this will be a turn around year for us. This week we have the Ravens. And while I usually root for the Ravens, this weekend, I hope we beat you as bad as we beat Buffalo. Thats right haters!

I'm glad you had a good time, Mike. It was a blast. :D

Funny, always been a Redskins fan myself, but never went to a game until I started working in the concrete business. Tickets are like currency in the private industry construction sector.

Where's that picture of us and the the Hogettes?

Sweet! Looks like you guys had a good time.

I gave up my season tickets this year. They were just too darn expensive.

It sure looks like you gents had a good time. I hope you don't feel too bad when my Bears Whup your Racial Slurs. I never could figure out why you guys want it to hail on your team, but that's Washington for you.

The one thing wrong with the Steelers, no cheerleaders. Of course, that could be why they have so many Lombardi Trophies, nothing to distract them from the game at hand.

I root for the Redskins when I see them playing since I'm from here, but they're not my team.
