Maryland Game Suggestions

Any suggestions for going to the Maryland game? My wife and I have to be in DC that weekend and thought we might as well watch the tigers beat up some terps.

Take a shield and some type of ammo. And maybe some ear

plugs to drown out the cursing.
The last time I was up there I got hit in the side of the head by a piece of turf. I say "Good Riddance" to the Twerps.

I'm making the trip too, but I hear it's a pretty unpleasant place.

I guess I should have said that obnoxious fans are obnoxious fans no matter where the game is played. See Athens, GA an an example

It's pretty much a consensus on here that Maryland fans are

the worst BY FAR of any opposing fans. That includes UGA and SCU fans, which are obnoxious and irritating, but not normally as hateful as Twerp fans.
Although I will say...the ones that sat around us at the home game last year were funny as heck. When Tajh fumbled and Maryland got the ball on their own 1 yard line, one of the guys was shouting, "Just PUNT the ball. NOW. Just punk...the freaking ball!"

At a Maryland game...

The fans spit on me from 4 sections over. Albeit impressive, it was unacceptable. The weather was snow, ice and believe it or not, urine. They also kicked my dog.
disclaimer: I have never been to an away game at Maryland, and I'd kill a man that kicked my dog. That is all.

My brother and I went to the Twerp game two years ago

and we for the life of us could not figure out why anyone in their right mind would ever go to Maryland. We had to drive to a train station, park the car, wait on the train, took the train to the campus where we then had to get on a bus. The stadium was quite old and depressing...after the game and our victory it was very confusing and everyone that we talked to us gave us different directions but told us to be careful where we were walking. Some people were very rude. One extremely hot student in a tight mini dress no bra with a goober bf told us where to wait for a bus to get out of there. The buses were not on time and then once we got off the bus no taxi would pick us up and take us back to Virginia because of their rules regarding who they can pick up and where they can take you. So bottom line .... Victory was awesome..every other thing sucked!

after Pentagon). We hired a car service to take us to game and pick us up. I highly recommend it. It was a fun trip. We toured DC a couple of days - despite lots of rain.
