Redskins tickets and parking - advice needed

[Anonymous]

Looking to purchase Redskins tickets and a parking pass to an upcoming home game as a gift. I am unfamiliar with the stadium and parking situation (though heard the latter is not so good) and in general what types of seats are better than others (never been to a game).

Any advice on what sections in general are good (sides, behind end zone, low or high) and also which sections may have an overhang/covering. Looking to spend $150 or so per ticket. Also curious if VIP parking is available where you can get out sooner than regular general parking.

Thanks.

There is VIP parking but it works opposite of what you'd think. Parking close to the stadium shortens your walk if that matters but greatly increases your travel time leaving the stadium. It empties from the back. The cheaper the parking the faster you get out (the walk can be 3/4 of a mile but you can walk way faster than the cars move).

100 and 200 series tickets are lower bowl and preferred. 100 series tickets below about row 22 are actually bad because you can't see over the players. The top 15-20 rows in the 200 series can be under cover.

300 series are the club level. Nice! but more expensive, probably not available for $150.

400 series are upper bowl. Cheaper but the view is the same as what you get on TV

Sections between the 20 yard lines are good. The end zone is actually quite a party zone...and LOUD!

The corners are probably best avoided.

The price of tickets are 3x different from the Dallas/Phillie games to the less famous rivalries. Jax/ Arizona/ Tenn/ Tampa would be your best bang fro the buck. (and they might win

PP gives good advice. We had season tickets for years. Did not renew our last contract. We had orange parking passes and liked the proximity to the stadium and the ability to exit pretty quickly. Another idea might be the metro. The metro is now less than a mile from the stadium and is a pretty easy walk. There are also a few bus services to the games.

Club level tickets are well worth the price. You get a shorter security line and a nice indoor seating area in the event of bad weather. I have also had 100 level seats to other events and they were great, but it was summer and great weather. I would not want to be out there in bad weather. On the club level, you can go inside and park yourself in some comfy club chairs while you thaw and then go back out. Division opponents, rivalries, and the Monday Night Game are going to be the most expensive.

Just take the Metro. You'll get home fast in most cases.
