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.

1975 Washington Redskins vs New York Giants

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
