but I never had an issue at FedEx (or RFK before then). I've never been an a-hole though either (not that you are, but that's generally when problems happen, when you have two groups of a-holes).
and its one of my favorite away games to go to, mainly because hanging out in the DC area with friends has been a ton of fun.
As for FedEx...the usual razzing can occur, but generally nice people and I haven't had a bad experience. They pretty much know their team sucks lol.
As far as tips: The stadium is a shit hole by modern event standards, so depending on where your seats are, the sight lines can really suck (especially if you have lower level under cover).
Last year we went to the 8:30 Donnell 3TD game, and it took FOREVER to get into the stadium. We also took the train in from DC and it was a bit of a hike, but I doubt you'll run into the same issue with it being a 1pm start. Arrive early either way.
I wish I could go this year but am not able to. You'll see a lot of Giants fans there and a lot of dual-team tailgates. Usually, the 'Skins fans are ok, there are always the usual assholes, but generally they are not too bad. I always wear my Manning jersey without a problem. That said (typed?) 'Skins fans are a little cocky due to their wins over the Bucs and Saints despite last weekend's embarrassment. Just be loud during the game and help bring home a win. I was at last year's game and it was awesome! It was almost entirely Giants fans left in the 4th quarter. Have a great time!
Would probably recommend a poncho since rein is expected. Was going to take my 5 month old before the weather forecast 😀 I have gone the last few years so seen lots of blowouts by Giants. I think as long as we don't get too conservative we should be fine. For some reason we played really scared rg3's rookie year and ran the ball way too much with a hof qb and Cruz and nicks and Marcellus bennett. Sure we will win tomorrow 😀

Have a blast, be loud, and GO BLUE!
More than Dallas or Philly?
