Redskins increase the price of tickets, parking at FedEx Field (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/wp/2013/01/31/redskins-increase-the-price-of-tickets-parking-at-fedex-field/)

it took that dick one year of success. in the article you'll note how they compare us to the giants and cowboys ticket prices, almost as if the redskins are justifying it by saying two other teams in our division still have higer prices. you know what else those two teams have a new figgin stadium, not an old dump thats been recently stripped down to the bones.

as a season ticket holder for 9 years now and a skins fan for 30 years, i would just like to say f you danny, f you.

Be careful what you wish for with the new stadium. A new stadium will also bring even higher ticket prices along with the biggest fan ripoff of all time...the PSL! FedEx was built before owners came up with the PSL idea. I dread the day when the skins build a new stadium...Snyder gets a new toy and I get the bill. No thanks...

I could care less. Go enjoy yourself, but the Skins games have always been more of a hassle than a fun experience. Not really about the price, all football games are expensive. If you dont like it, dont go. Im more worried about the increases in my health care, the cost to heat my house and gas prices. You would think people would be up in arms about that.

I didn't see it that way when they played at RFK. If they put a new stadium there again you could take the metro and there's Capital Hill next door. Landover is the pits.

No one if forcing you to go. No one if forcing you to give "that dick" your money. With HD and surround sound I have no idea why anyone would go over there and pay those ridiculous prices.

Exactly. Right now is the best time of the year to buy TVs as well. If you don't have one, you should jump in this deal from Best Buy this week. $1,000 off on a great TV. I should get commission for this.

Over $1500 for a TV and your complaining about a $75 ticket?

I would recommend no one takes his advice to by that TV. Its an active 3D tv which means you have to wear heavy, glasses with batteries that cause eye strain. Passive 3D (whats used in movie theaters) is a simpler, better all around technology.

I think that's your opinion and nothing factual. As noted below...


Active 3D vs. passive 3D: What's better? | TV and Home Theater - CNET Reviews (http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-33199_7-57437344-221/active-3d-vs-passive-3d-whats-better/)

The bottom line
Sorry, no winners, only whiners. Both 3D methods are flawed in serious ways. Glasses-less (autostereoscopic) 3D, if it ever makes it mainstream, is going to have its own major flaws.

My advice? Figure out how much time you'll spend watching 2D versus 3D, and how far you're going to sit from your chosen screen size. If you're like most people, you'll be watching far more 2D, in which case I recommend getting the TV that looks better with 2D. If you think you'll watch a lot of 3D, passive might be better, but only if you're sitting far enough away (or your TV is small enough) that you can't see the "interlace" lines.


Also, you aren't required to wear the glasses unless you are using the 3D features on the TV. Which is going to be very little.

Tickets-$75 x 10 = $750
10% Tax= $75
Parking $40 x 10 = $400
----------------------
Total: $1225

That's the grand total for ONE seasons worth of viewing the Redskins at FedEx. Double that if you want to bring a friend. Now, this doesn't even factor in the costs of gas, food, and other game day related items that would incur a cost.

All that for one season's worth of entertainment. Now add in the fact that if you drop 1500 on a TV, you get to use it everyday, all year round. Not only that, the next season, you won't have to drop 1500 again to view your favorite team. Investment wise, this is a no brainer.

NFL games have always been overpriced. This is no surprise. Been to a couple of games as a guest or a gift and I would never pay to go to a pro game myself.
