Are any of you thinking about bringing beach chairs or is that a stupid idea?  I know there's no chance you'll be able to sit during the actual rally, but if I get down there 3 hours early, it would be nice to have a seat.

I think A lightweight camp chair would work

This morning’s Post says it’ll be on MASN and NBC Sports Washington (the channel that airs the Caps). That’s probably what she meant.

Hoping on the metro at shady grove now. If you see a ruggedly handsome bearded man limping around with an attractive woman with red (red red, not ginger red) hair... that’s me. Flag me down for whiskey

I'm not going to be able to arrive at Federal Triangle until 1:30 PM. Pray for me.

Is this being televised?

In addition to MASN and MLB Network, WJLA 24/7 (old Newschannel 8 ), NBC 4 and WUSA 9 are all carrying it. The latter two will move their respective coverage to their digital sub channels at some point due to college football.

Walking to Metro now. Bought a ticket to the Newseum so I can check it out before they close for good plus they have a terrace on the 6th floor that might be a good viewing spot.

Doolittle is very liberal and doesnt hide that. Doesnt really come as a surprise. Doesnt bother me in the slightest. The people that matter are going anyways.

I can't moderate this stuff today. Give the politics a rest. You all know the rules. Just be thankful the team came together. Let's follow.

It's an individual choice.  We can take this one to the Politics thread.

I hope everyone who is able to go has an experience to last a lifetime. I am unable to walk or stand for too long, so I will be watching on TV. Maybe it'll remind me of Super Bowl XXII in 1988, when I was watching the celebrating on TV after the victory, realized I was living literally a half a mile from Wisconsin and M, and got off my lazy butt and joined in.

Channel 4 is already cranking with coverage, it started at noon. 

I was going to go to the parade, but decided to watch it on the tube instead. 

If Miss Iowa was coming, I might have gone downtown.
