Redskins Tickets
 
Hi, I'm a big Redskins fan and I'm looking to get tickets for a weekend. I know football tickets are notoriously hard to get, but are there any places where I can get good seats at reasonable prices? Any help would be appreciated.

All the Redskins tickets are season tickets so the only way to get them is to buy someone's. That being said, I think there are ticket brokers that have tickets and sometimes there are ads in the paper. About the best advice I can offer is pick up the Washington Post when it gets nearer to the season and look in the want ads for both brokers and offers to sell tickets. I don't know how much problem there is with fake tickets being sold (the brokers are probably trustworthy). Of course, if the team plays like it did last year, you can probably buy tickets from folks outside the stadium on game day--just remember, face value only.

There are plenty of legitimate ticket brokers that can provide Redskins tickets (and Orioles and concert tickets)to the game of your choice. One I've used successfully: Best Seats (301/985-6250).

I saw a notice in the lobby of my office building yesterday for anytickets.com that had Redskins tickets for sale.

I saw a message from Ruth about getting tickets for the Redskins. Where could I apply. Am coming to Washington with my son (Oct 21 game Carolina) and if can't get ticket would like to know a lunch sports bar to watch the match.

As I said in my earlier post, AJ, call Best Seats at the phone number I listed and you can get seats for the game you want to attend.

AJ, better try Best Seats as Chris suggested. I just checked out the www.anytickets.com website and the cheapest seat for the game you want is $193-no way, big a fan as I am. As for bars, there are tons. Just about any bar in DC with a tv will have the game on. There's an ESPN Zone downtown, Champions (I think it's still in existence) and other bars in Georgetown and bars along Pennsylvania Avenue on Capitol Hill. It depends upon where you want to watch the game.

Hello fan <BR> <BR>Go to GOTIX.com We have gotten many tickets there. IF you want a wholoe package with hotel included, check out Great Atlantic Tours. We saw a game thru this company and had decent seats. <BR> <BR>If you want to see the Skins at other nearby stadiums, we have also bought from scalpers in Philly...very easy! <BR> <BR>Hail to the Redskins!
