A More Honest Washington Redskins Stadium Survey For the Fans 

2/10/2015

If you didn't see it already, the Washington Redskins are surveying their fans to see what they would like in a new stadium.

Their lease on their current home, FedEx Field, is not up until 2027, but Snyder and the team are already planning for a new one.

Here are the questions asked on the survey:

  • Would you want the lower bowl seats to "move/shake" similar to the RFK Stadium experience?

  • Should the lower bowl have more seats than FedEx Field?

  • Would want the stadium to be smaller or larger than FedEx Field?

  • Would you want to view the field from the concourses throughout the stadium?

  • Would you prefer indoor climate controlled concourses?

  • Would you prefer an open air stadium with all of the seats under cover?

  • How important is public transportation as an option when traveling to the stadium?

  • How important are on-site dedicated parking lots for tailgating with the ability to store or rent grills and tents?

  • Would you utlilize an in-seat waiter service?

  • Is a full service, sit down restaurant (open pre, during, and post-game) important to you?

  • Would you want additional food options at the stadium? If so, what type?

  • What membership benefits for long time season ticket holders are important to you as we move to your new stadium?

OK. Some good, general questions about a stadium that probably won't be built for another decade.

But, with this being the Washington Redskins, a team owned by Dan Snyder, let's include some honest questions you didn't find in this survey:

-Based on where we build this stadium (Virginia, Maryland, D.C.), are you willing to pay for a majority of it?


-How would you prefer to contribute to the building of this stadium? Cash? Check? Major Tax Increase? 


-Would you be in favor of an increase price on season tickets and your PSL?

-Based on the questions we've asked you in the survey, do you realize this stadium may cost over $1 Billion? 


-Did you know that the Redskins have only played at FedEx Field for 18 years?

-Have you been to RFK Stadium lately for a D.C. United game?

-
Did a piece of plaster or concrete fall on you?

-Did you encounter any live animals at RFK Stadium?

-
Would you like that experience at a new stadium?

-
Do you like the Redskins nickname?

-If no, would you be interested in facts that support the nickname?


-Have you heard about @RedskinsFacts on Twitter?


-Did it pop up as a sponsored tweet?


-Have you ever tweeting a negative response to @RedskinsFacts? 


-If so, why?

-
Did you know Redskins owner, Dan Snyder, is friends with the former head of the Navajo Nation?

-
If yes, do you care that Ben Shelley is seen as a sellout?

-
If yes, why?

-
Overall, do you like Dan Snyder?

-
If no, why do you hate me...I mean, Why do you hate Mr. Snyder?

-
Is it because of the way Robert Griffin III has turned out?

-
Could we have done more with the picks we traded to the Rams to get RG3?

-
If yes, what?
The list of questions could go on forever. But you get the point.

Washington fans (or better known as the "tax payers") will foot a good part of the bill, and Dan Snyder will still own the team and not change the name.
