Metro News Release

For immediate release: July 11, 2008

Take Metro out to the ballgame!

“Why mess with parking and sky high gas?” when Metro can take you to the ball game or your desired destination? Taking Metro beats traffic, and beats “driving and parking any day!”

Metro is one of the Nationals’ biggest fans, and taking Metro to Nationals Park makes commuting easier for everyone.

Metro is the best way to get to the ballpark because of the convenience of the Navy Yard Metrorail station to the new ballpark. Riders can take the Green Line to the Navy Yard. Riders can also take the N22 Metrobus route from the Navy Yard Metrorail station to the Eastern Market and Union Station Metrorail station.

In Metro’s latest straight-to-YouTube video “Metro Out To The Ball Game”, viewers can see and hear why taking Metro to Nationals games makes the most sense. To hear the catchy tune, visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2SkuSuUDPI&feature=related
