I’ve seen it in person, when it was empty. It’s the typical island stadium in an ocean of asphalt. I always enjoy walking through the tunnels of a stadium that bring you from the concourse to the bowl: it’s an architectural trick where you compress the hallway and then open it up to reveal something like a grand lounge or showroom, or just a nice open room. Something worthy of revealing. When you walk through Fedex Field’s tunnels and out into the open stadium, you feel the relief after the release from the narrow tunnel, but then you look around at the “reveal,” and you decide, this was no architectural feat. This was a mistake.

The problem: high ticket prices, high food and concession prices, high costs of everything. The previous ownership was pure greed! The solution: get in touch with your fan base. This team sucks but your fan base is everything. Invest in them, reward them with lower ticketing. Get quantity people to the stadium. Sell it out, create a good environment. And encourage this with reasonable food prices. Rebuild. More fan interaction and player days! Keep prices realistic and fair until your team becomes successful again!

My college Roommate is from Maryland and he told me FedEx Stadium was awful. He told me the seats are so small and tight, you have very little leg room. We went to a Redskins-Giants Game once back in 2015, we parked at the Subway station, b/c my roommate told me they charged like $40 or more to park at the Stadium Parking Lot. We had to walk a Mile away to the Stadium

The owner before Snyder, named Jack Kent Cooke, was close to his death during the construction of the stadium. It’s completion is said to have been rushed, for him to witness a game there his passing. Snyder was obviously no help in keeping the place up to par with the rest of the league. I still go to 2-3 games a year, but boy does it stink. I will admit, Harris has reworked the concessions and they seem much more streamlined and easier to get through… but not cheaper. (For ref, during the Snyder years, I’d go to concession stands and they wouldn’t even have cups. They’d just tell me “sorry”). That’s about it though, so far. Parking is still 60$ minimum if you don’t want to walk a mile from the train. Brought a friend of mine from out of town to a game… he told me he felt bad for me. I anticipate the commanders will be in a new stadium by the beginning of 2030, but the sooner the better. It’s a real shame how far the franchise has fallen from it’s glory.

Metlife is also one of the worst, mostly because of the seats and design. If its raining hard enough, you're not safe from the rain in the concourse. Seat also have about 40 combined rows of cushoined seats. 300 sections are steep as hell, parking is a fucking nightmare for divisional games. Several times, I've had to walk from american dream (the mall) to the stadium due to no parking. The transportation is really good, though. But, i'd say it somewhat competes with fedex field, especially the playing surface, shit is the acl tormentor

D.C., itself, is too congested to host a full-capacity pro sports stadium/arena within its borders; so, by necessity such a venue would either have to be in one of the neighboring states of Maryland or Virginia (RFK Stadium, the old home of the W.D.C. NFL franchise, which Daniel Snider inherited from the Jack Kent Cook family when he bought the then still called Redskins from them before he had FedEx Field built, was in Virginia)

That if a stadium was in that section of Maryland, it would make the NFL prevent Baltimore from getting their own team, which they wanted back badly.

MD/VA floats that team, not DC. And the stadium use to set over 90,000 when it opened. They reduced seats, because nobody was going. DC is a small city. Not very stretched out at all. DC is witnessing new trends of professional sports; whereby you need land to build mini cities, not just an open lot. RFK stadium is a small lot owned by the federal govt. DC does not own the land. So even if DC was sold the land by the fed govt, who’s going to pay for it? And even if DC voted to spend $1b of DC taxpayer money, there’s no guarantee the Commander’s (Redskins) ownership would pass up a potential $1.5b mini city package Va could be offering there, for a small lot in DC, where only a stadium can fit. DC’s mayor doesn’t seem to understand that; or many DC residents. And no smart business owners in business to lose money. Just so DC residents can feel good about wearing a baseball cap or T shirt that says Commander’s on it. Time and trends have caught up w/ many smaller cities who’re losing pro teams to states who can offer mini city land to build a stadium/arena w/ businesses around it m, so ownership can collect residual income year around from those other businesses. Not just concessions or renting out the venue for concerts.
