I'll be there for 11 days so taking 1 day to visit a new stadium is a must for me. My goal is to eventually visit every stadium NFL and MLB.

Ever been to Petco in SD? It looks very nice on TV.
I've been to Petco and AT&T. I considered PNC this time but it's too far away.

One my main interests is history, and there's so much to see in that area. The first place I'd hit is one of the Civil War battlefields in the area, especially if a reenactment's being staged. Or maybe go to Baltimore and see the Constellation or Fort McHenry (and get some kick ass crabcakes). But that's just me.

I was stationed in Norfolk for three years and kick myself now for not seeing more of the surrounding area when I had the chance.

Yeah I'll be doing some of tht too. I've been to DC a few times and one time was when my grandpa was awarded the MoH. We got a free tour of the city so I've seen a lot already.

Yes. The guy who was to turn in the papers was KIA and they didn't find the papers until 53 years later.

That is way awesome.

I've only seen one recipient in real life - some crusty old chief who must have won it in Vietnam passed me in the hall of my building one day. The little blue ribbon at the top always stands out.

If they ever make a movie of his life, it's pretty obvious who should play him. In that pic he looks a lot like Robert De Niro.

I went to a lot of those battlefields as a kid - Harpers Ferry, Antietam, Gettysburg, Bull Run - but it was so long ago that I barely remember them now. I'd love to go back, I'd probably appreciate them more as an adult.

I've scheduled trips to Gettysburg three times, but everytime something has happened to screw it up at the last minute. It's definitely on my list of places to see.

The ex and I visited Colonial Williamsburg and spent a weekend in DC once. That was pretty much the extent of my travels in the area unless I was driving back to Missouri. I never even drove down to North Carolina and the border was like fifteen miles away.
