I agree with the others though - I've been to most games over the last 6 years I've had tix and NEVER seen it like that before. Add to that the blast sent to Redskins season ticket holders just this morning:

Due to visiting team returns, a limited number of tickets are available for this Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.

I get one of those before every game. I agree with the others though – I’ve been to most games over the last 6 years I’ve had tix and NEVER seen it like that before.

Folks are going to sell out part of their package to help cover some of the cost, particularly for games that would have high demand from the opponent's fans. Did you hear the Packers fans in the Minnesota/GB game yesterday? I think they were louder than the Steeler fans were for the MNF game.<br/><br/>It's a new world out there.

It’s a new world out there. Time to get used to the invasion of the opponent’s fans.

Monday Night was by ALL accounts something no body had ever seen happen with Skins' home game before. The idea that it will be duplicated, is a bit of a reach.<br/><br/>Besides, it doesn't matter what the fans do, what matters is what the TEAM does on the field. If the Skins had taken care of business against the Steelers, there wouldn't have been the opportunity for those Steelers fans to get into it. The same thing will be the case on Sunday Night. <br/><br/>'Boys fans won't have anything to cheer about and "be seen" if the Skins just do what they do!

‘Boys fans won’t have anything to cheer about and “be seen” if the Skins just do what they do!

Why would this game be any different from any Cowboys games of the past 10 years at FedEx? Sure there are silver and blue pockets, but they don't make nearly the noise Steelers fans do, and people are less inclined to miss the Dallas game. I've been to the past four in a row. Trust me, it won't even be close to the Steelers debacle. Simma down now. Why would this game be any different from any Cowboys games of the past 10 years at FedEx?
