RFK Stadium Nearing Its Final Days

RFK Stadium is being slowly dismantled this year. The stadium of my youth. So many memories here. I won't go into detail on but one can Google RFK Stadium and get an idea of the stadium's history. 

In 2005, the Washington Nationals played at RFK for three seasons before moving into Nationals Park. RFK hosted a couple Military Bowl's, some high school and college football games. The last tenant was D.C. United and they moved out in 2017. Here is a photo gallery.

1994 World Cup - Spain vs Switzerland

2008 D.C. United vs Los Angeles Galaxy

2010 Military Bowl - Maryland vs East Carolina

2012 Military Bowl - Bowling Green vs San Jose State

2013 D.C. United vs Columbus Crew

2017 - D.C. United's last home game at RFK Stadium

Redskins coach Joe Gibbs was right, RFK really had crud hanging off it

Photos from various Washington Capitals practices during the 2024-25 season. These are just a few of the hundreds of shots I took when I went. 

Practices are open to the public and you can find the schedule by searching for Caps Today on Google. I included the address and directions at the end of the post. Also you can ride Metro to Ballston station. 

I usually stood behind the goal and shot. These came out pretty good despite shooting between the glass. 

My favorite shots were the ones I got of the players smiling after a drill or during warm-ups. It's fun and I am happy the Capitals let fans come to practice. I'll be back next season for sure!
