Who's going to camp?

Im definitely going sunday, got VIP passes! Not real sure what they entail or what perks that gets but Im in!I got VIP passes to camp back in 2005 and it was pretty damn sweet. We got to park in the players' lot, like 3 cars from Portis. Also, at the time (not sure how it's set up now) we got to watch from a roped off area to the side. After practice, if the players didn't feel like walking down the path that runs along where the majority of the fans were they could walk around our area so we had a better shot at getting autographs.
Like I said, this was a while back, but it should still be cool.

I dont get the pass until I get there so I guess I dont get to park the minivan anywhere near the players cars. Im taking my 3 year old daughter who will be wearing a jersey and tutu....

Im going to be so embarrassed when me and your daughter are wearing the same thing.

I will probably go one day next week, either Wednesday or Thursday. If anyone plans on going those days, let me know!

I've never been. Can you just show up or do you need to do anything in advance?

Hi I just joined this site for my husband cause I am surprsing him and got a pass for this Sunday! We have never been and I was wondering some tips on what I can bring and what we should do! I was going to create my own post but I have to have 25 pts. (weak) to do so.......

I was thinking cooler & chairs but not sure if like that?

Also any tips on autographs would be helpful! Help me be a "cool" wife this weekend!!!!

TIA

^ You come on the board for the first time and want adivce but call the rules weak, nice.

Ok with that said definitly leave late to get there traffic is a breeze. Bring a sweat shirt or sweater Ashburn is cold this time of the year.

If you want autograhs either flash your boobs or yell "me me me me, over here" like a million times definitly gets the players motovied to sign for you.

Good luck and have a great time!

That is so cool Warpath!

Yeah I'm going tomorrow as well. I was planning on going anyways but now that I got the Red Cross VIP passes I plan on making the most of them. I donated blood today and they were handin out the Red Cross passes like hotcakes so I grabbed a couple. I usually try to make it to TC at least once every season and I'd rather go during a weekday but because of my new job I gotta do it on the weekend. I might do fan appreciation day too if I feel like putting up with the massive hassle of having 25,000 other fans everywhere lolol.

Awesome. Im definitely going Sunday and if there are any extra passes to be had Id be grateful.

I'll actually give you some real advice for going to camp. It's going to be HOT. Bring some water and be prepared to be in the glaring sun for a few hours. White devils like me need about 3 bottles of sunscreen.

As far as a cooler or chairs -- I wouldn't waste your time. Training camp isn't exactly a relaxed atmosphere. Unless it's a small portable cooler, it probably won't be worth your time. Personally, I like to just bring a bottle or two of water and that's it. There's really no where to 'sit' that you'll be able to see anything -- unless you get there REALLY early.

From what I can tell, you can choose a good view of practice, or a good spot on the autograph line if you get there early. When you first come onto the field, stay a bit to the left if autographs are important to you. That's where the players pass by to enter/exit the facility for practice. If you stand there, you're sure to get some action from whatever players feel like signing things. If watching practice is more important, stay more straight or to the right.

You can still get autographs to the right, and you can still see practice from the left. However, each has its advantages.

44Deezel, just go to the skins site and print out an invitation. I don't believe they are necessary, but I do it every year to be safe. It's free and only take a moment, so worth the peace of mind.

Those of you going on Sunday, expect a big crowd. Weekends are somewhat brutal. Get there early.
