I didn't think there were any Bojangles in the DC area. Love their biscuits.

Google is good. There was a "Bojangles" club in DC near the 18th/19th ST area. Then again, it could have been Georgetown. It was around the time of Rumours, Deja Vu, Mr. Days in the Alley, RJ's, etc.

I looked it up. There is a Bojangles in Oxon Hill.

The club I remember was from the early 80s.

Bojangles is a chain chicken restaurant, not the nightclub in Georgetown. Which I remember, too.

Until the earlier post about Gott, I had never heard of the chicken place.

Think Popeyes or Church's.

Bojangles is great but is way better in the south. Popeyes is still king universally, though.

I believe the Bojangles is in PG County. I haven't been there though I've only been to ones in Virginia.

Love Bojangles but ewwww about the food poisoning.

Love the high five to Dusty on his way off the stage

I've seen a bunch of videos from this weekend, the guys sure seemed to be enjoying themselves and like they like each other, makes me really hopeful for 2016 for some reason

It was pretty decent, yeah. They had a separate huge hall for it and it was well oraganized. Our group was supposed to include Werth, my girlfriend's favorite, but they removed his namecard just before the start time. He was replaced at our table with Rendon, so that was okay. We also had den Dekker, Espinosa, Taylor Jordan, and Chris Speier. Carp was supposed to be there, but he was a no-show too.

As for the main event, it was one of the best yet. The players were actually going around and mingling with the fans. Clint Robinson for example spent a lot of time chatting and signing autographs by the Snowball activity. A pretty good day overall.

It was a very well done event this year. My first one. I went simply because they made a big deal out of it.

These Nats events seem to get better all the time. The Family Photo Day held last month was good too. Now if they can just do something about that SPH Appreciation Day....

Isn't there a Bojangles in the food court downstairs at Union Station? I'm pretty sure there used to be anyway.

Winning off the field.

glad to hear it went well this year, we had such a bitter taste in our mouth following 2012 that we've never wanted to go back. We'll go next year I guess just to see the WS trophy.

I just went went for a couple of hours because I don't have young kids and I'm not into the whole autographs and pics with players thing. But you could make a whole day out of it. Great event for kids.
