The Redskins announced some of their plans for their first-ever home Thanksgiving game next week. Among other things, there will be a flag giveaway, a pregame parade, plus more than eight hours of potential tailgating, plus video boards to watch the 12:30 and 4:30 p.m. games.

FedEx Field’s parking lots will open at noon, more than eight hours before the scheduled 8:30 p.m. kickoff against the Giants.

The team says it will host “an exclusive private party” for season-ticket holders inside the “Bud Light Party Pavilion,” which will also feature a performance by cover band White Ford Bronco. You can debate whether this is better or worse than debating politics with your uncle at Thanksgiving dinner.

1. My takeaway from this article;

"White Ford Bronco" is a FANTASTIC band name!
