I am considering going to one of the following games this season: Cowboys at Ravens, Cowboys at Commanders, or Cowboys at Eagles.


Commanders fans seem irritating, but not the violent type. I know there's a lot of talk about Eagles fans being violent, but are they really or is that kind of exaggerated out of proportion? And Ravens fans - what are they like? Maybe too sophisticated to be violent?
 
Don't get tickets on the upper level at an Eagles game. That's almost always where the trouble occurs.

Can I guarantee you you won't have an incident with some idiot? No. But if you avoid the upper level and don't instigate something yourself, you should be fine.

Baltimore, sophisticated? Sarcasm?

Commanders fans are irritating...

you ever had to stop arguing with some one because they said

"But we had the better loss against Philly, ya'll got blown out we were competitive so that makes us better than you all"

Philly fans are violent, thats just not blown out of proportion.....Baltimore Fans are just like Seahawks fans they'll rep their team until the death but they are level headed not violent like philly fans and not dumb like Commanders fans
 
I would go to see them play the skins. Only because you can go out and see the sights too, monuments, etc.

Who wants to voluntarily go to philly? heh

Baltimore is a nice city with good seafood.

My oldest brother and his family had to go to Johns Hopkins for his youngest son back in 2002. From what he told us, Baltimore is just one big bad part of town.

I'd go to D.C. There are a lot more Cowboys fans there than anywhere else outside of Texas. So it's really a second home game.
 
I'd say Baltimore (and I'm born and raised in DC area). Stadium experience is wayyyyy better, and I think drunken horrific knucklehead factor would be less, too. FedEx Field is a dump (and a lot of Skins fans will agree), and there's nothing else to do down there. If you don't stray too far beyond stadium/inner harbor areas (or just do a little research before you go--Little Italy has some amazing spots), you shouldn't have any trouble in Baltimore. There will be plenty of Dallas fans at that game too. It's the one I'd rather go to myself.
 
Boys vs. Commanders. They're all fair-weather fans...if the boys are up by half-time, most of the fans will be gone "to beat the traffic home."
 
I've been to several Ravens and Commanders games.

Commanders games suck bad, the fans there are OBSESSED with the Cowboys.. they aren't too nasty though.. just delusional in a big way. Make sure you leave the Commanders game at least 10-20min before the end of it. If you don't, you will sit there in ******** traffic for HOURS. Tailgating sucks unless you can get a parking pass that is close to the stadium. Otherwise, forget it... they have a bus system there... you park a few miles away from the stadium and they buss you in.


Ravens games are great. The fans are a little blue collar and somewhat friendly at the game and also very passionate about their team(Lots of standing and yelling...I love it!) Completely opposite of going to a Cowboys game at Cowboys stadium unfortunately.

The Ravens stadium is very close to interstate 95, so the traffic isn't too bad. 30 minutes max if you leave right after the game ends and move fast. If you leave a few minutes early.. 10-15 minutes and you are out of there. Tons of tailgating before the game.
 
I'll never go to a game at FedEx again in my life, at least not with me paying for the tickets.

We had guys swear/spit at my mother.

Can't speak for Baltimore or Philadelphia but I'll likely be at the Ravens-Cowboys game this year to give it a try. I'll never go to a game in Philadelphia.

Agreed with Baltimore being an awful, awful town but I'd rather go to a game there than FedEx.
 
What its like to go to an Eagles game? As a Cowboys fan? Man, if you do this, do not bring your kids or wife. Go stag. And be ready for anything.

Seriously, what its like? To go to an Eagles game? Just hop in a porto-potty for about 5 hours, and maybe take a plunge into the inners. That'll do it.

I've been to a few games at DC - and although they do talk a lot and stuff if you wear your Cowboys gear, its all in fun, and sportsman-like. But Philly - you will end up in a fight with someone that urinated on you.
 
FedEx is terrible. I went to my first game ever there. The fans are an absolute pain in the ***.

Safest game? Ravens. They're diehard, but I doubt they'd care about you. They have an extreme hate for Steelers fans....not Cowboys. I go to Baltimore yearly, but haven't been to the stadium. Pretty cool city in general depending on where you go. Nice night scene, nice harbor, and Camden Yards is nearby.


For Philly....ya I'd imagine FedEx X 10

Thanks, good advice!

Once went to an Eagles v Commanders game in Philly - was with a friend who lives in Philly. Was on the upper levels. Interesting experience. As someone else said, if you dont start any trouble you're probably ok. Didn't wear any Cowboys stuff as I figured I'd be set on by both sets of fans. Area I was sitting had some Commanders fans, who were very irritating and got in the faces of the Philly fans sitting around them. Real dumb move when you're outnumbered and they paid for it.

My Son lives in Baltimore and trying to get parking for the game is bad. You may have to walk for 4 or 5 miles. The Ravens fans are rabbit after the games. Watch out for those riding around Baltimore in pick ups with guys standing in the back with beer bottles.:eek::

It was many years ago at the Vet Stadium for an eagles game. They were throwing whisky bottles. My Son and I had to cover our Cowboy stuff to make it to the car. In those days Vet Staduin had a jail down stairs.:eek:

The Commander fans you can set next to and still have a good time, you may get some trash talk but that's it.:rolleyes:

My 2 cents.

SPIT???? did you just say Spit on your Mother???? Your Mom???? The Lady that gave birth to you mom?

Please tell me that guy is now..... Stiff as a log, In a Suit looking nice

He has to be
 
I go to the Philly-Dallas game every year, and it is much better experience in the new stadium than it was at the Vet. Realize that you are going to hear the stupid Egales fight song every time a group of fans spots your Dallas gear. I have not seen any fights in the new stadium and security is pretty on top of drunk fans, no matter what team you are wearing. Before the game, the Egals fans do a lot of trash talking in the parking lot during the tailgating, but it is all usually in good fun. I have seen a pretty good turn out of Dallas gear in the last few years, so you are never alone.

The moron did it right in front of stadium security. Guys in orange jackets got to him before my dad, my brother and I could.

There were grown men jumping into the face of my then 19-year-old brother and screaming "**** you" at the top of their lungs.

Classless.
