I'm :pound:! I know that because I live in the Atlanta-Metro area and have been to several Falcons games. Take a guess, who the Falcons played on my last visit to the dome. If you looked at my post, I was wondering about FedEx Field parking because I've never been to a game out there.

I was there too at the Redskins game! I remember when Hopkins hit that FG to tie the game how absolutely quiet it was afterwards (except, of course, for the Redskins section my buddy and I were sitting in). :) Alas, it was all for naught, for reasons we know all too well.

There are tour buses in the city that you pa one time for but can jump on and off all day long so you can see the sights.

Fed Ex has parking but the traffic is horrendous.

Thanks for that info! I was wondering about that. I figured they would have some. Where would I pay for the tour bus? Also, I heard about the traffic at FedEx Field on a blog. Therefore, we'll be leaving a bit early, just in case. From the little I've seen, it seems expensive.

Yep! That would be the infamous game. It's interesting that you mentioned that kick to tie the game. I couldn't watch, as I turned to a Skins fan behind me and we were praying. When I heard how quiet it was, I asked, "did he make it?" Prior to that, this Skins fan and his daughter, who was sitting next to me and my fiancee left the game after the Falcons scored on their last drive. Smh I needn't mention the rest, as you said. Ugh! Needless to say, I'll be attending the preseason game vs. the Falcons on 8/11. I can't wait to see this rookie class play. Definitely can't wait to see the Browns vs. Redskins. I'm gonna take so many pictures. Btw, I'm originally from Atlanta. I consider the Falcons, just the home team. Growing up, the Falcons were always blacked out, so I was left to follow good teams, so the Redskins were my choice. Been one, ever since. The start of the season will be 26 years. HTTR#

When you get downtown, around the Mall, Capital, White House etc you will see places all over where you can purchase tickets. The Top 8 Washington DC Hop-on Hop-off Tours | Viator.

If you want to get to the stadium without being stuck in traffic for quite awhile you need to go 3-4 hours before the game. DMV traffic is some of the worst traffic in the country.

Thanks, so much, Cali! Yeah! I already said we were going to the game around that time-frame. I heard about that traffic out there. Not to mention, I've seen it, live on google maps. Ugh! Smh
