It seems this is our last night ever as Washington Redskins fans…truly surreal.
I have so many great memories of this team and it will always have a place in history. It seems we are moving into a new era, but for one last final time.
Hail to the Redskins! https://t.co/Bl2Wgn6qur

Its really starting to hit me that this will be the last night the team will be known as the Redskins. Like many of you, I’ve been a fan my entire life. I’ll always cherish the memories, traditions, & all the greats that have worn B&G. Hail to the Redskins forever. #HTTR pic.twitter.com/opTHRaZlvS

Almost all of my time being a fan the team hasn’t been good I took pride in being a Skins fan & will always cherish the memories. With them retiring the Redskins name tomorrow it will always be Hail to the Redskins & Now we look towards the future which I think is bright! #HTTR pic.twitter.com/uPm1MHqy6F

Then there are the whiners:
“Hail to the redskins is trending” people are so scared to let racism go. I’ll never understand it

Sure, idiot. Because this will reduce racism by one iota? Ridiculous…
