Put the stadium on the national mall. It is America’s national sport and would be iconic.

You absolutely don't need parking lots there.
They have 3 metro stops nearby


Metro Center (Orange blue Silver and Red Line)
Federal Triangle (Orange blue Silver)
Penn Quarter Metro (Green and Yellow)

That serves the whole DC region by Metro


I know where the metros are. I agree that it would be great to have more people take metro to NFL games. I also know that the NFL itself, and the team owners, do not want to locate somewhere that metro is the only option.

Is the FBI property big enough for a football stadium?
The crazy thought is that location is central to the whole metro system. And it would bring a ton of people downtown on Sunday along with other events there. It would be better for the city than the RFK location.
Okay it would stink for tailgating, but great in terms of public transportation.
Fire away.
Tell me the positives vs negatives of this idea.


You could. But should you? No. Each NFL team plays 17 regular-season games per year. That's 17 days out of 365 days in a year.

A much better use would be a dog park.

As long as attendance stays about the same it should fit.

And Why is it a terrible idea?
If you took the current RFK stadium, you could fit it in the current FBI locaiton
