Reply to comment by Throwaway2theplate in spotted in Eastern Shore newspaper: using that obituary to really make a point re: Dan Snyder by aka8812

That article in the Post around 2009 that talked about Snyder and his team suing season ticket holders ended it for me.

The elderly lady whose living room filled with logo stuff and she was sued into bankruptcy. She’d had tickets since the early 60’s. Snyder has no soul.

I can’t remember, what was the issue he sued them about?

The crash of 2008 wiped out a lot of people’s retirement accounts, among other types of investment accounts. All of a sudden people had a lot less money but were caught in ticket contracts that lasted several years. Long term season ticket holders asked to be let out of their contracts.

Wow, that’s horrible. Meanwhile many places across the country there is a generation-long waitlist to get season tickets.

DC used to have that sort of waiting list pre-Snyder. People passed tickets down in their wills.
