Washington Kastles

On Tuesday night we checked out the Washington Kastles game at CityCenterDC (the old convention center site) at 11th and H St. It’s a pretty cool venue — tucked down in what feels like a cavern (in DC terms, it’s all relative) of office buildings. The Kastles took on the Delaware Smash, and though they started really strong, the match ended in defeat for DC… no one likes to lose to Delaware.
Also a highlight was our winning of free burritos from Chipotle. This was thanks to a halftime Wii tennis match in which our “east side of the stands” player was victorious.
I think I read somewhere that they are going to fill in the site sometime next year with a mixed retail/office project, which seems like a real shame. If this is true, I wonder where they will move the games?

First, my apologies for a bit of cut and paste commenting. I have been doing the rounds via Bloglines and looking at all the pictures from my favourite photo blogs, but haven’t been leaving comments. Generally, I try to comment as much as I can (I know how good it is for ‘morale’ to know that someone is out there appreciating them), but after the birth of my second son, I am a bit knackered to think up something witty and insightful on the hop. Thus the resort to Control+C and Control+P!
