We’ll play at 5:30pm near the Smithsonian metro stop. They have been rotating which grassy sections are roped off, so just keep an eye out for one of the fields between the carousel and the Washington monument. Last week ended up being the section closest to the Washington monument.

Preview to this weekend, the Exiles are playing a game on the Tidal basin Saturday afternoon and there is a political rally as well. As a result of these two things someone beat me to the morning reservation for the tidal basin pitch. My number one concern is everyone’s safety coming to play, and number two the least amount of headache. The rally could turn out to be no big deal and we’ll go ahead and play on the Mall. I’ll try to scope it out in the morning, and if we need to we might play on the WW2 memorial side. Also if it turns out no one is on the Tidal basin, it is still an option. Bottom line is, I’m asking for some flexibility, and it may be a morning-of decision where we play.
