Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee and member of the Washington Commanders Ring of Fame Darrell Green will serve as the Legend of the Game, presented by SeatGeek. Green played 20 seasons for Washington, capturing two Super Bowl victories in the 1987 and 1991 seasons, seven Pro Bowl selections, and four First-team All-Pro selections. In 1996, he won NFL Walter Payton Man of the Year award, recognizing his excellence off the field through charity work. He holds the NFL record for most consecutive seasons with an interception (19) and is the only undefeated multiple-time winner of the NFL Fastest Man competition. Green was named to the NFL 100th Anniversary All-Time Team in 2019.

Prior to kickoff, UH1 Huey Helicopters will conduct a flyover, weather permitting. During halftime, there will be a Frisbee dog show in partnership with All Star Stunt Dogs. In celebration of Halloween, the Command Force will perform a special routine to "Thriller" by Michael Jackson and Major Tuddy will hand out candy during the duration of the game dressed up in costumes.

Pregame, SeatGeek Legends Plaza is the place to be before kickoff. Open three hours prior to game action (one hour before regular gates), fans can enjoy live music, tailgate games, and a variety of beverages, including domestic beers starting at $6.75, available until kickoff, and rotating local food trucks operating throughout the game. Fans also can watch the Command Center: Gameday Live show, get an early look at team warm-ups in the Bud Light End Zone, and interact with Washington Legends and team partner activations. This week, fans can look forward to live performances from Sirius Vybe Go-Go band.

Fans who arrive early to the game can also head to the tailgate lot (Lot G) behind SeatGeek Legends Plaza where they'll find more gameday excitement. Pepsi's Taste of Gameday Experience takes fans through the gameday journey with Pepsi and features three separate areas, highlighting different ways fans prepare for their favorite team's game: Tailgating, "Bar-gating," and "Home-gating." Additionally, fans who stop by the Onelife Fitness tent will have the chance to win a free one-year membership to Onelife Fitness and take home other fun items, and Maryland Health Connect will be engaging fans with wellness-based giveaways.

Prior to Sunday's game and the Team's Week 11 matchup on November 19, the Commanders will be collecting new and gently used winter coats from 10-1 p.m. at Gates A, D, E, F, G, H, and SeatGeek Legends Plaza. Fans who donate will receive a $10 Safeway coupon for each

coat donated. The coats will be donated as part of Safeway's 24th annual

Feast of Sharing celebration on Wednesday, November 22.

As part of the team's season-long Welcome Home theme, each home game will showcase a discounted item of the game, made available to all attendees. This week, stadium nachos will be 50% off. The discounted item of the game will continue to be announced in the team's gameday press release and Know Before You Go email communications ahead of all remaining home matchups.
