I looked at the metro schedule and it says the last train leaves Largo at 12:30 on weeknights.

Does the train run later on that night or do I need to plan on hauling ass out of the stadium?

Morgan Sation???? where is that?

I used to live and work in Frederick with a seven mile commute, one end of town to the other. I got transferred to Germantown and now have a 25 mile commute on 270. I fight traffic at 5:30 in the morning and trying to get home on a holiday weekend can sometimes take over a hour.

What he said.

They always extend for football games.

Thanks fellas.

I hate that walk to the Morgan Blvd. station, but I don't want to drive. We stayed near the stadium when we went in 2005 and drove down Central Ave. into DC one night. My friend, who gave us the tickets, freaked out when I told her we went into the city that way. She kept telling me how crazy we were for doing that and don't ever drive through that part of the city, etc, etc. Heck, I didn't know and I'm thinking why didn't she tell me that when she gave me the tickets.

The Morgan Boulevard station, it's about a half a mile's walk from Fedex Field. That's the station that most riders go to, and then they make the walk up the hill to Fedex.

The last game I went to, the '06 season opener, I rode the Metro with my dad n we got off at the Morgan Boulevard station. I believe it's the last station on the blue line.

I know a great place to park for free. If you go to another game, I'll PM you the directions. Totally free, still relatively secret, and closer than a lot of the cash lots.

Ok... thanks!

We're planning on going to the MNF game. I'll hit you up later for directions once our plans are set.
