ESPN ZONE in DC set to close...

sadly this was one of the only "meet-ups" i went to.  what year was that? 

anyway, i may try to hit it up one more time before it closes on the 16th.

[im not you]

D&B needs to pick that spot up. Or someone similar. There needs to be a place like that within city limits

Economy?
 
Yes due to the economy, also the ESPN Zone in Baltimore, Atlanta, and 2 other places that I can't remember off hand are closing as well.  Simply put the overhead was too high for the DC location.

was it just me or did that place seem underused by ESPN themselves... like you wuld see them do remotes from Baltimore, Atl. and obviously NY and LA, but i cant remember a time they did one from DC

i'm surprised HARD ROCK CAFE is still there.  we lost PLANET HOLLYWOOD a few years ago and now ESPN ZONE.  do people really go to HRC like that?

speaking of downtown, is that WARNER BROS. store still down there?  i haven't been down by the shops in a minute.  i used to take my little brother down there regularly for the sweatshirts and tees.

Only 2 ESPN Zones are left and they are both in Cali (LA and Anaheim).

It will be missed..
