HELP! 4 Australians and their first Redskins experience


Hello HogsHaven community!

I am an avid Redskins fan living in Australia. I am lucky enough to be touring the world at the moment with one of my very best mates. By no coincidence at all, we will be in Washington (with a car) for the game against the Chargers (which I thought would be a shoe-in but now I am quite worried...).

We are meeting two Australian girls for our American adventure and the 4 of us have tickets to the game. I was hoping you fine people, who I have monitored for over 2 years now, this is where I go to sate my Redskins obsession, could help us out by providing some advice on the basic stuff:

-Best time to get to the game

-How on earth does a tailgate work and can we play too?

-What's the best method of transport for getting there (not sure where we are staying yet)

-Is there a cool HogsHaven type bar that everyone goes to after the game where we could feel welcomed and celebrate/commiserate.

Going to this game is my baby, and will be one of the greatest highlights of my life, and for myself, but mainly the 3 non NFL fans I am dragging (don't worry they are excited to be there) to the game, I want to get all the info so we can have a fantastic time. I know this community to be very helpful and welcoming of new fans to the fold so I hope you guys can lay the good word on me :)

If you need any info like seats or anything obvious I've forgotten let me know! Thanks very much in advance!!
