RI: An appropriate sendoff for RFK Stadium

Okay, here's Alexander's thoughts:
A random thought on RFK stadium.
As we all know the Nationals play in their new stadium, the DC united are looking to move when their lease runs out in, it seems only a matter of time until RFK is left empty.
We hear talks of the city wanting to get the Redskins back, and rebuilding on the site, or talks of new housing development in its place. Its not a question of if but a question of when.
But before the wrecking ball comes, the metal overhang falls down and the bust of Robert F Kennedy is removed. I hope that they play one more game at the old stadium.
I will be honest its not entirely my idea, but rather one I have taken from a recent event in the old Orange Bowl in Miami. Which is being torn down. They had a final game in that stadium of Dolphin and U greats playing flag football.
And I thought to my self they should do something like that at RFK. So how bout it? See a bunch of former Skins play at the house that joe built for a fun old time? Seeing Doug Williams throw one more to Art as 28 covers? Sounds appealing no?

That sounds appealing but i'll take it a step forward even though logistically it may not be possible. How about a NFL season game at RFK as an appropriate sendoff for the legendary RFK stadium? Skins/Boys...Monday night? Sound better? One night only & all the greats on the sidelines.

Is this that crazy of an idea? Fed Ex would need to be involved. There would be some lost money, but we all know Danny could afford it for one game. I haven't really done any logical thought process behind this, but it would be pretty exciting.
