Anyone interested in trading for a new James bobblehead?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey all, went to the game with my buddies Saturday and I ended up getting 2 extra James bobbleheads. I’m hoping to trade one or both of them for another Nats one from recently. If you have any bobbles/giveaways you’d trade for a James or two let’s make a trade! Trying to fill in my collection from the past few years.

Thinking about going solo tonight and splurging on nice seats for my last game of the year. Is the $145 worth it for the amenities if I don’t drink?

Trying Everything at Nationals Park part 36

4 Upvotes

I'm starting a new Substack series where I'll be trying every food item at Nationals Park. Hoping it could lend itself as a helpful resource for people coming for games who don't often come, or even better, a quick laugh.

Today is the Michelob ULTRA Grill (Chicken Skewers).

Ballpark Content Nats garage Banana Bowl parking sales are now live

4 Upvotes

Anyone who is going to drive to the Banana Bowl and doesn't have parking yet, suggest you follow this link and buy now: https://www.mlb.com/nationals/tickets/specials/savannah-bananas

With the soccer game at Audi Field earlier in the day, parking spaces near Nats Park are very hard to find in private lots. The Nats prices for the stadium garages aren't great ($69+fees) but better than remaining inventory at several private lots.

Good luck!

Nats Plus Rewards Rollout

11 Upvotes

Any other Nats Plus Rewards members frustrated with the lack of availability of PNC Club tickets this season on the rewards app? I set a reminder this morning, was on at 10:00 and they sold out in seconds while I was making selections. My account rep says it’s just increased demand and they’re offering the same amount of tickets as last season but given increased demand, why not try to offer more options or other experiences? Just disappointed in that I just renewed season plan for next season yesterday and seeing less and less benefit.
