Look out Ravens – there’s a new football team in the DMV: the XFL’s D.C. Defenders.
I attended their game last night at Audi Field, and it was one of the most unique experiences I’d ever had at a sporting event. Why? Lemons.
They’re now throwing lemons on the field in protest https://t.co/JGEMZp6QAq pic.twitter.com/MhP4RapwJs
After stadium security ended an attempt to create a section-long beer snake (a Defenders tradition from last year), fans retaliated by throwing lemons – dozens and dozens of lemons – onto the field.
