Andrew COctober 25, 2017So many amazing memories over my 20+ years of attending games here!!!! The legacy, but not the physical shit hole, will truly be missed... esp all of the sections shaking when fans jump!!
Ricco RichardsonAugust 4, 2013Still Standing.. it still has Redskins stuff Here, Statue of George Preston Marshall(First owner) and oh yeah DC United Home Games there.. its a safe bet the skins will be back here one day.
Jon ShecketApril 15, 2015This stadium is the closest you will ever come to experiencing an episode of Scooby Doo. Don't forget to bring a flashlight, a roll of toilet paper and a shiv.
Denise E Hilderaldo ContiJune 7, 2015The location of the stadium is good, and the stadium itself is very nice too..
HISTORYMarch 31, 2010This stadium has been home to a number of professional sports teams: the Washington Redskins of the NFL (1961-96), the Washington Senators of MLB (1962-71) and the Washington Nationals, also of MLB.
Lori-Jo SDecember 19, 2011At a show on September 20 1987 Bono fell off the rain-slicked stage and dislocated his arm. He wore a sling for 12 shows on the Joshua Tree Tour which is visible at some points during "Rattle and Hum"
If you're going to see D.C. United, make sure you get a vodka lemonade during the game. Better yet, come tailgate with Screaming Eagles in Lot 8 before the match!
Brian JonesSeptember 28, 2014The sunny side of the stadium always seem to have more fun. @screamingeagles
Check out the tailgate in Lot 8 before the match. While you are there consider joining one of the Supporters Clubs -
- Visit the Team Store located at the Main Gate for the latest United jerseys, hats, t-shirts, sweatshirts, and more. The store opens four hours before kickoff.
Alan BruceAugust 8, 2014A little run down but the Barra Brava gets the stands bouncing! Great atmosphere!!
DC Preservation LeagueMarch 11, 2011Built in 1961 and originally called th District of Columbia Stadium and was renamed in 1969 - 7 months after the assasination of Robert F. Kennedy.
RAY GrantApril 9, 2011Word on the street is the Skins will be back in DC in the next 3 to 4 years in a dome stadium. I dont know how good this source is but sounds good to me.....
The FeastJune 13, 2011For D.C. United games, get seats close to the Barra Brava (sections 135 to 138 and 233 to 235), which contains the liveliest fans.
Be sure to head out to D.C. United games early for the best tailgate in town. Food, beer, cornhole, foosball, live music and more in Lot 8!- The stadium opens an hour (60 minutes) prior to kickoff. Arrive early to avoid lines and to get a copy of the matchday program.
Tim MillerFebruary 6, 2016Very old but a classic stadium. Check it out before it gets shut down forever
PepsiJuly 1, 2011Be sure to check out one of the DC United games here, just don't get caught calling it "Soccer" :).
Rev GaryApril 10, 2012What a dump. Raccoons in the locker rooms, trees and bushes growing in the upper deck...bulldoze it and do us all a favor. Take United scum with it, too.
Ashley PowellAugust 13, 2016Yeah they'll allow unopened water bottles in on 100 degree days, but you have to open them at security and you don't get caps back. Worst policy ever.
Not many stadiums have had 7 championships esp in DC (3 redskins, 4 DC United)... but sadly the stadium is showing its age...
- FREE match programs are available at Main Gate, Gate A, Gate F, the Team Store, and all merchandise stands.
Be weary of the 4square special. I went to redeem my $20 off replica jersey and was told the price on the tag already had the discount applied. Bullshit!
Crew Supporters UnionAugust 3, 2011Beware of wild animals running around the upper bowl, as well as the lack of any basic amenities for traveling supporters.
Halftime drum circle! Courtesy of the best fans in DC - La Barra Brava
Seattle Sounders FCMarch 16, 2012The Sounders FC earned their first piece of hardware here on September 2, 2009 by defeating DC United in the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup Championship match.
- ChingDecember 30, 20102010 Military Bowl. Maryland blows out East Carolina 51-20. Ralph Friedgen's final game as Maryland head coach.
