Nah, it’s all good.
Well, RFK Stadium is officially slated for demolition in the next couple years. Is that bad? Nah, all good. But we will fondly remember D.C. United winning 4-3 on penalty kicks over the New England Revolution in the 2004 Eastern Conference semifinals. And maybe some of the parking lot concerts/music festivals, yeah a few of those. Otherwise, see ya RFK.
