Agreed , first never been to e Redskin game at Fed Ex ...yes I've been to Redskin games but not at Fed Ex and yes I've been to Fed Ex.The problem is threw out the league.Giants at least have the race track or the Izode center to park at,plus you must remember if people taking up more then one spot ...well that's a spot that someone else might have.
At age 53 I can say I have never drank at a football game,I like my beer but I like to watch the game and.....well............why pay all that money and get three sheets to the wind?

I agree with you 100%. Why should someone feel entitled to take up two or more parking spots? And i would argue that someone who wants to get hammered before the game isnt a true fan. It disgusts me to see so many people drunk before the game even starts. Whats the point?

Getting in and out of FedEx is a mess. I live in NC and can only arrange to attend 1-2 games per year if i'm lucky. Without traffic, its a 5+hour drive to and from the stadium area. Then getting out of the stadium generally takes 2-3 hours. I'm spending 12-14 hours in one day in a car to see the redskins play and ive got to be at work the next day - if FedEx can do something to help traffic move smother and get me home earlier, then i'm all for it. Its about time.
