PrintUpdate 9/23: A Giants' fan just corrected me that the PSL licenses max out at $20,000 per ticket at $700 per game, not $50K like I had said.
Well, despite the loss, the trip to Giants Stadium was a unique one. I sat up in 318, which is the upper deck corner bowl and a few things stood out as I looked down at the Redskins fans in front of me. Several Byron Westbrook jerseys, an older genteman in a Devin Thomas jersey, and several young guys in Rocky authentics. Hmm...even after all the shot-gunned beers it was obvious I was in part of the parents section. All three were a pleasure to talk to and I thank them in advance for putting up with me as I was on hour 7 of beers that day. After the jump are pictures of some unique jerseys I came across (fails) and some hotties (what else are my friend gonna do to entertain ourselves at half-time)?
Westbrooks...and a very cute blonde.
Devin Thomas' father, Dwight. Just a TAD of a resemblance, eh? We had a nice talk about the family and Devin being the only athlete of all the kids.

My seats...$80 face value. If you think Snyder charges a lot, you'd be AMAZED at what the tickets are going for at the new stadium. Club season tickets, front row 50-yard line, $50K PSL license EACH ticket.
This jersey baffled me. Rod GardNer was #87. Custom?
Skins couple who live in NJ. She said her husband still won't buy her a new jersey. He's pictured in the back with his Lavar jersey. I asked, and no, they are not unemployed. I said what he was doing was pretty cruel!
Wow...we all assumed Darrell Green was the only #28 didn't we?? Herb Mul-Key...Running Back.
New Giants Stadium in background.
My friend running around stopping every hot chick at half-time...
Haha. "Get a good look Costanza?!?!"

We have a few customs that we wear to games as well:
- Moss #69 – is a custom jersey I gave to my wife; Moss is our family name and 69 is, well, ya know, one of our favorite positions.
- Beast #69 – is a custom jersey my wife gave to me; Beast is her nickname for me.
Great pictures, BTW!

funny
similar to us. My wife calls me BOSS, and I call her YEAST.
On a side note, my daughter’s (the one in my profile pic) middle name is Cooley. Not after Chris though. Cooley was my Grandmother’s maiden name and naturally I couldn’t pass up using it. So it’s cool to get her a new #47 jersey every year.
my mother's maiden name is Cooley
and hence, I will probably purchase a Chris Cooley jersey this year (have been putting off since I have not been very financially sound!)
I am a redskins fan living outside of philadelphia ( a fan of the eagles too since I spent most of my life in PA)… However, when skins play eagles, I always root for the skins.

How in the hell is this possible?
it just is
don’t question, just ignore.
If I were say, a DIE HARD skins fan, then maybe I can see your confusion as to why I could like both teams. however, I am a fairly strong skins fan who also likes the Eagles.
I am a testament to its possibility!
actually
you sound a little bit confused. Perhaps a little schizophrenic. Have you sought psychiatric help for this problem? I would ask you if you were “touched” in secret places as a child, but that probably wouldn’t be appropriate.
so when the Skins play the Eagles, you root for the Skins? What if the Eagles need the game to get into the playoffs, and the Skins have no shot? Think hard before you answer, this will affect the way a lot of people on here think about you.
actually
I had conflicting feelings about last years second game. As I knew the eagles needed the win and the skins were essentially out, but my skins loyalty won out and I rooted for them.
I have watched the skins for most of my life, all the way up until I graduated HS. Once I moved to philly for college, I started watching the eagles and they grew on me.
However, since I went through my formative years pulling for the Skins (even tho I only was aware of them post-gibbs v1), I can not shake that fandom.
Call me what you want, and be confused however much you may be confused, but I am certainly a dual fan.
by the way
I don’t mind what you think/call/say, as long as you don’t call me a fairweather fan. that is one thing I most certainly am not.
furthermore
I went to the Skins-Eagles game in Philadelphia last year and again was going to try to remain neutral, but I couldn’t help but root for the skins and get excited for every positive play and pissed off for every negative play.
By the end of the game I had eagles fans all over giving me the stink eye and in fact one fan even pushed me down while I was trying to celebrate with another redskins fan. So.. again, not fairweather.
Jersey
Do you wear a Trotter jersey that is half Redskins and half Eagles? ha. I guess it would also apply to Akers.

nope
I don’t own a single jersey… could never fathom coughing up that much money for an article of clothing. (took me forever to say ok to a suit and that is more useful than a jersey(.
you wear
a SUIT to the game? WOW, you are weird.

China
My friends buy their jerseys from China…$16 and you cannot tell the difference AT ALL from the authentic ones. In fact, they even come w/ all the NFL logo stickers and what not on them. Gotta love Asia.

I've found
the China jerseys to be a kinda small. I have a pretty cool retro-looking Ricky Ervins jersey from China that just doesn’t fit me. Also, the Indian on the patch looks happy, which kinda creeps me out.
well...
It’s obviously illegal so I can’t post the link…and in fact the company keeps having to change domain names b/c the nfl finds out and shuts em down. they currently are b/w sites..when it comes back up i can email u directly.

no
not to a game, I was just saying 100, 200$+ for a jersey is outrageous. I was elaborating on how much of a penny pincher I am by not even thinking a suit is worth that much money.
when I went to the eagles/skins game I just wore some jeans I think and some shirt. At first philly fans were ready to sock me over being a skins fan but they asked why, and I said I was born in Maryland and I was raised by a man who has been a fan of the skins his whole life.. so they let me be.
if I had worn a jersey I might as well have had a sign on me that says toss beer and obscenities my way.
did not know him
he was wearing a portis jersey and we were doing the basic high five and hootin and hollerin. that was the first pro football game I’d been to in years, and the first since I turned 18, let alone 21 so I could drink beer there
talking about 2 different people
I was referring to this statement
and I said I was born in Maryland and I was raised by a man who has been a fan of the skins his whole life..
I wanna know if you knew this man.

I knew about Herb Mul-Key because my middle school library had a copy of Brig Owens’ memoir of the 72 season, “Over The Hill To The Super Bowl,” and he’s featured prominently in that book. I guess he walked onto the team through open tryouts that George Allen used to run at the time. Kinda crazy to think of a time when a team would try out any man off the street. That’d never happen now.
Those pics
are awesome. Some hotties in the greater NY/NJ area for sure.
Love the pictures of Rotten too.
Good work
Yea...
Imagine the pics week 17 @ San Diego…I should be in full-form by then.
