Yes, restore the cool fight song.

I went to high school in the DC area and we were all ardent Redskins fans. Loved the logo, the colors and the fight song. And old RFK Stadium.

I remember seeing a game way back when (early Eighties maybe) and the crowd in RFK was bouncing the section of the stadium and and down in unison!

I think they stopped doing that after there was a tragedy at some structural collapse where a lot of people were killed.

I went to a pro hockey game at the old Boston Garden after that collapse occurred, and people were doing the same thing, jumping up and down, and you could feel the structure moving, and in that pandemonium some shrill voice shrieked out “STOP!” and in unison, everyone ceased at the same time. I think everyone immediately realized why someone would say that.

DC Stadium (AKA RFK Stadium) is coming down, but the District wants to build the football team a new stadium on the same site.
