Planning to take Metro to Redskins game? You’ll need a Plan B to get home
WASHINGTON — If you plan to take Metro to FedEx Field on Sunday evening to watch the Washington Redskins face off against the Oakland Raiders, you’ll probably want a Plan B for getting home.
The Redskins did not ask Metro to stay open late for Sunday’s game, which starts at 8:30 p.m. Metro closes at 11 p.m. on Sundays.
In order to stay open later, the team would have had to pay a $100,000 deposit for every extra hour of service. In recent years, about 1,000 people have used Metro to reach FedEx Field in Hyattsville, Maryland, the team said last week.
