Roll with The 7 Line Army to DC

by Darren Meenan February 05, 2018

Hey, guys. Just an update about our trip to DC. I worked out the details with Rally Bus, and we have the round trip locked up for April 7th.

Thanks again to the Mets for letting us use their parking lot for the day. We aren't quite sure which lot we'll be leaving from yet, but that will be updated prior to the game. You'll for sure be kept in the loop.

FAQ:

What time will we be leaving? EARLY. We'll be pulling out of the Citi Field parking lot at 5:20 AM. We cannot wait for you, so please be early.

Are you doing a bus from NJ again? Yes. Click that option on the Rally Bus website.

Why so early? Traffic needs to be taken into consideration, and by law, the driver needs to stop at one rest stop on the way down. We typically stop in Delaware for about 30 minutes to use the bathrooms, grab a bite, and take a group photo.

Does the bus ticket include a ticket to the game? No. Those can be purchased separately HERE. We have about 30 left while supplies last.

What are we doing once we get there? You can choose to go inside Nationals Park once they open (11:10 AM), or come pregame with us at the Bullpen. It's an outdoor bar a stone's throw away from the outfield entrance. We head in to the game around 45 minutes before first pitch.

Wasn't a whole lot to cheer about this season, but we cherish every moment we spend with @The7LineArmy. Here's the crew talking over the Nationals bar, Bullpen, before our outing in April.

I only need a ride there, or a ride home. Can I purchase a one way? No. There is only one price. $65 from Citi. $60 from NJ.

Can I eat/drink on the bus? Yes. You can bring food and drinks on the bus. Alcohol is allowed, but no glass bottles of any kind please. It's always wise to bring a garbage bag with you.

Is there a "family" bus? Yes. We dedicate a bus for those fans that like to be on the quieter side. As opposed to the "party bus".

Can I leave belongings behind while we're in the game? Yes, at your own discretion/risk. The bus will be locked up while we're in the game, and we've been incident free so far, but if anything goes missing, it will not be T7L or Rally Bus' responsibility.

What time do we leave to come home? The bus will depart roughly 30 minutes after the final out. Listen up for the pick up location as you leave the bus in the morning. Find a buddy, and don't get lost.

Is it fun? Absolutely.
