Milan/Barca at RFK - NOT FedEx

Who would I rather see get revenue......Dan Snyder or DCSEC????? That's a tough one.

 

I saw the Italian Super Cup at RFK in 1993 (I believe) between AC Milan and Torino. Torino was either the Italian Cup winner or runner-up and Milan had taken the scudetto.

It was a pretty boring game, I think 1-0 for Milan. Torino hit the crossbar with a freekick and Raduicioiu looked good but I don't remember much else.

 

So will Beckham be playing?

 

Yes, one half for each team.

 

If Posh says so.

 

Posh will be busy shopping at Springfield Mall during the match.

 

It's good news and bad news.

Good news:

Easier to get there from work on a Wednesday night.

Bad news:

FedEx's inability to pull this off probably gives DCU less leverage when negotiating with RFK.

 

Buying wacky T-Shirts from gadzook's no doubt.

 

I've heard one of the sticking points was that Fedex wanted to charge $6 A PERSON for parking.

I don't see how this effects DCU at all, I can't see DCU ever playing at Fedex even if we do need a temporary home.

Charging parking per person is possibly the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

 

Hard to believe the DCSEC didn't think of it first, huh?

 

Does this mean I can't charge people $5 to hide in my trunk now?

 

You might want to consider letting them out now.

 

That's right......it's up to $11 now.

 

Of course not. They save $1 by hiding in the trunk (if they hide well).

 

Which team gets his bottom half? -Oh wait, that would be Victoria...

 

I am looking forward to laughing at the ticket prices tomorrow. Top price is going to be $125 but that includes access to a training session.

 

Places like Merriweather-Post Pavilion and Nissan Pavilion do. For a $2+ surcharge last year I got to park my brand new car in a field and walk a mile to see Jimmy Buffett. This is why I'll never go to Nissan again, even if God himself comes down to deliver his final sermon, for one night only.

Really. I just gave up comp seats to Santana on Saturday, not that I have anything better to do.

Thx,

Jay!

 

Is Landmark going to be closed that day?

 

I think game tickets are 85, 65, 45, and 30 (something like that) Lets see how many "soccer fans" will pay those prices for a practice but not pay $16 to come out and watch United. Guess what, I will pass on this one!!

 

I'm thinking of borrowing the giant DC United flag from the Barra and hanging it from the upper deck.

Time to show these interlopers who's house this really is.

Even better. Express our opinion of DC's play this season.

It'll hide the "aroma" of the Anacostia.
