What shall we call the Pub?

[Chris]

what did they call the shack that the Hogs and Riggo used to drink in?

I don't remember that there was a name for the shed but the drinking group was called the 5 o'clock club.

Brilliant!

It was the The Five O'clock Club.

Pretty sure this one's going to be my favorite.

Five O'clock Club! Redskin-related, pub/beer-relevant, historically significant, and a reminder of those Redskins who knew how to win & have a good time doing it. A toast to you, MikeSr!

If anyone can scare up an actual photo of Ye Olde Shed (which I think exists, I just can't find it), that would be, you know ... pretty cool.

Not there anymore.It used to be at the old Redsins Park

Mark, before my computer crashed I had a link to the Washington Post that had a pretty extensive photo gallery of the Skins.Seems to me it was an old black and white pic of Jacoby, Grimm, May and others sitting outside the joint

Isn't the Pub "The Corner Pub"?

Absolutely. I'm changing my prior vote and am now 100% behind this suggestion.

I saw that one but I dont think thats the shed. it looks like it has an upper deck on that one..lol

wasnt the shed just where they kept the equipment and landscaping materials?

Yeah,that's not it, but it was as close as I came after a couple of hours of looking. May have to subcribe to the Post and dig in their archieves

A church owns Old Redksins Park now and rents it out to sports teams - there are two turf fields - and has upgraded some of the buildings. The maintenance shed (in the left corner of the satellite image is modern.
