Who's going to Thanksgiving game at FedEx?

Glover : 11/21/2017 1:26 pm

I'll be there smoking turkey with some, if not all, the Thanksgiving trimmings. My wife and I parking in Red Zone, cuz you can get in there 5 hours before the game starts. Maybe another thread when we get there.

Was very excited when we got the tickets in August, then not so thrilled about going, but looking forward to it a little more now they have 2 wins. Hopefully Shepard plays. If not, they will struggle, and I doubt there will be 20+ mph winds again.

Redskins vs Chiefs

How did the NFL miss the opportunity to have the Redskins vs Chiefs on Thanksgiving Day?

Or Patriots

v. Chiefs or Redskins

We travel to family on Thanksgiving

otherwise I would consider the same. Was just talking to a co-worker about how fun this would be (and the tickets are at $9 on stubhub). Enjoy!

I was...

But now we�re in NY for thanksgiving

I wouldn't subject myself to that dump of a stadium

Greg from LI : 11/21/2017 2:05 pm : link

even to see two good teams, let alone the Giants and the Redskins.

I'll be there, as always

Been going with my two daughters for years. I miss the days of the annual BBI tailgate party with HBart, Rob Nargi, his cousin Tim, Hope J, Bob in Annapolis, Steve in Maryland and many others. Some terrific times and turnouts.

Let's just get the win and make the Skins fans miserable, just like January 1. Won't make up for the season, but I'll take it.

My wife got the tix for my Birthday

in August, when I thought the Giants were Super Bowl contenders. I'm happy to be going. Thanks for shitting on my post and my Thanksgiving plans, or at least trying to. I'm going to have a great time. Love you all. Ta ta.

I'll be there

Yeah, stadium is weak, but MetLife isn't much better.

Short drive and can afford to take the family and not feel bad for leaving early due to the late start.

Got four tix in 100 section for $160 total ;-)

Have fun all. Should make for a memorable Thanksgiving.

02/2008 just so you know the grill you guys left behind in Tampa did go to some friends that lost everything and it has gotten a lot of use. Enjoy the game!

Worst stadium...

bw in dc : 11/22/2017 12:40 am : link

in the worst location with the worst fans.

I�d rather watch the game on black & white TV than go to FedEx.

Was planning on going all off season

and for the first few weeks. But after the way things have played out the thought of being surrounded by 70,000+ T-day drunk Redskins fans, was too much to bare..watching this one from the safety and comfort of the couch.

Thanks a lot, Frank. I'm just "many others" to you now? Sheeesh.

j/k. Those were some great tailgates. Happy Thanksgiving, buddy, and best to you, your daughters (esp Emily, whom I've met) and all your family.

I'm curious

If there will be fewer Giant fans than normal, and more empty seats given both teams losing record.

Holy cow

tickets are cheap...you can get 100s for under $50.
That is almost tempting for me...
