Josh Norman is right...and once again, Snyder and Bruce are to blame. Fed ex is a shit stadium and poor fan experience. Tear it the fuck down.

Not saying you're wrong but build what and where? The pricey PSL's will kill alot of the "fan experience". The Old Giants stadium was a great place to watch a game you could see from any seat. The New place is crap ,seats are smaller so you're closer together and there are more bars so ....yes more obnoxious drunks and the prices are insane many people only go to a game or two and then sell the rest to pay for the season tickets so that wipes out the "home field feeling". Now add in the cost of breaking the lease which I think has another 6-7 years on it with the State of Maryland and that is a hell of a cost added on to a new place that will be in the 1.5/2 billion dollar range ...or more.

You can't just "tear down" Fed Ex, unless they plan on playing at Byrd stadium. (Might not be a bad idea).

Fed Ex is gone as soon as the leases allow it. Unfortunately Jack Kent Cooke didn't leave this world with the Redskins in a good place.

The reason its a shit stadium is because of the Skins poor performance on the field over the years. I remember when its was new and packed with pretty much skins fans only. Now the stadium is 3/4 full and half of the people are for the visiting team. If we were winning all the time and FedEx was packed with only skin fans then no one would be complaining.

That is only part of it. It is a difficult stadium to get to, the upper level feels remote and disconnected from the experience, leaving is god awful. I live outside of Baltimore and it is faster for me to go see the Skins play in Philly than it is at Fed Ex. There are far more recreational opportunities now than when the stadium was built too. Recreational dollars are limited and the experience matters.
