[The Burgundy Ghost]

Anybody heading down to Ashburn this year?

I'm going to try and get down there for one practice, I'm guessing close to 30,000 attending fan app. day.

 

[Jugband McGillicuddy]

I probably won't, honestly. Having grown up going to Dickinson, Ashburn just isn't the same. I hate to say it, but it's true.

 

[Lanky Livingston]

I am strongly considering coming back for fan appreciation day. We shall see.

 

[skinsfan44]

I probably won't, honestly. Having grown up going to Dickinson, Ashburn just isn't the same. I hate to say it, but it's true.

I hear what you are saying, Jason.

I would rather have TC back at Carlisle myself, but it don't matter where TC is, I will be there.

I should be at TC on the 29th, 30th, 31st and the 1st of August.

Yeah, I am a TC geek.

Huly and I usually put together a meet up after a Saturday practice, so it will most likely be on the 31st.

Will post details when it gets all ironed out.

 

[Om]

I'll definitely be going, but I'll only go to Fan Appreciation Day if I'm inside the ropes.

That sumbitch is a madhouse.

 

[Jimbo]

Wish I could attend. This is the most excited I've been about Training Camp since Gibbs returned.

 

[SNF]

I'm going to try to make it to that first practice with a few of the people I work with.

 

[Elephant]

I am going! I will have cameras in hand as usual! Looking forward to it!
