I have attended DC United matches since 1999. I was very excited for the New Stadium, until I attended my first match. It was just not a fun experience. No parking, no tailgating, really not much to do before entering the High priced fan area. Getting into the Stadium is worse than the worst experience with TSA. The Club has a clear bag policy , but the security at the gate still opened my sunglasses case, wallet and cell phone case. To look for what? Once inside the stadium, it looks good, not quite finished, but looks new. Long lines every where. Beer selection is very poor, and very over priced. I was expecting much better food, it was a slight step up in quality from RDK, but a significant price increases.
The seats are much smaller than normal, very steep stands, good views. Only one screen above the supporters section. The supporters section, was nice and loud, but that place does not look safe with everyone standing. If they put a roof above the Supporters Section it would make it that much better.
The Match was good, leaving the Stadium was a nightmare.
All-in-All, I will watch at home, Audi Field is just not worth it. Overpriced, large lines, subpar staff, not understanding customer service, and security that enjoy...
Read moreI attended many DC United games at RFK. Great experience, Fun tailgates Food and Beer was OK, but not great and normal stadium Prices. I attended a Match at the New Stadium Audi Field. Ticket Prices were about 200% more expensive, Food and Beer were not much better, But Much more expensive. I was shocked DC United did not follow what Atlanta did with Pricing of Food and Beer.
Views were Great, Seats are extremely narrow, The stands are very steep, The Supporters section Is Very Small, Loud yes, But Its not like RFK when they filled half the stadium. Getting into Audi Field is nightmare, Extremely long lines and only Clear Bags are authorized. Then the "security" finger through everything in the Clear bag which is the cause for the long lines. NO Parking, so No Tailgate, Not much to do in the area. The actual match was good, lets see if the Team can keep up the quality play next season.
I really like how the Ownership really do not care about the fans who supported the team while at RFK. They only care about the rich people who can afford matches at the new stadium and pay for their matches on the exclusive PPV channel.
Sorry but I will only catch the National TV Matches and several...
