Predict the ratio of Panthers to redskins fans Sunday...

Wouldn't surprise me if there were a ton of Skins fans...I live up near DC, and even the wealthy DMVers (Dc/MD/VA) are starting to get priced out of their stadium by Dan Snyder. A decades-long season ticket waiting list at FedEx field has been whittled down to nothing by high prices and little to show for it on the field. Absurd costs like $40 to park in an area that isn't even walking distance to the stadium (you have to wait in a long line to take a shuttle) and $9 for a beer have got people looking for cheaper alternatives of the cities (Philly, Pitt, NYC, Baltimore, Charlotte) within a half-day's drive. This year, we've got less demand than Philly, lower costs than NYC, and are on the schedule, unlike Pitt and Baltimore.

And in my opinion, you can't put too much blame on Panthers fans for not snapping up the tickets and keeping the Skinsheads out...For plenty of them, this is the only game all season they've had to plan to attend, and for us it's one of eight our single-game attendees have to choose from. In other words, they're probably coming in droves and have had their tickets for a long time.

I'll say 30% Redskins fans, officially.

Why people continue to put up with Snyder's crap is beyond me.

Here's a great article that outlines exactly how much a tool Snyder is:

http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/articles/40063/the-cranky-redskins-fans-guide-to-dan-snyder/

Funny thing is, he sued over this article and brought it way more attention then it ever would have originally had.

Edit: then he withdrew the lawsuit and claimed he had never actually read the article, LOL

Dan Snyder = assclown
