Tickets and parking passes ("Tickets") to Pro-Football LLC d/b/a Washington Commanders (the "Team") games and other events held at WFI Stadium LLC d/b/a Northwest Stadium located in Landover, Maryland (including, without limitation, parking areas and entry gates, the "Stadium") are revocable licenses that only grant a one-time entry into the Stadium, Stadium grounds, or Stadium parking lot(s), as applicable, and, as applicable, a seat or event area, or, if specified on the Ticket, a standing location, for the specified game or event (the "Event") with no right of re-entry. The purchaser and/or bearer of Tickets to the Event, and any individual seeking entry to the Event through the use of a Ticket, including minors and all other attendees accompanying any Ticket bearer (on whose behalf the purchaser and/or bearer represents they are authorized to act for purposes of agreeing to these terms) (each of the foregoing hereinafter a "Holder"), agree that (i) such license is subject to these terms ("Terms") and (ii) by purchase, acceptance, and/or use of such license, each Holder is deemed to have read and understood the Terms, and agreed to be bound by them. Failure to comply with the Terms shall result in forfeiture of the license and all rights arising under it without refund and entitle the Team, the National Football League ("NFL"), and/or, if applicable, the Stadium (individually or collectively, "Management") to pursue all legal remedies available. Admission may be refused or revoked, and Holder may be ejected in Management's sole discretion.
ALL TICKET SALES ARE FINAL. NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN. THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY if admission is refused or revoked, Stadium capacity limitations result in Ticket cancellation, or the Event is canceled and not rescheduled for any reason, or for any breach of the Terms, is a refund of up to the Ticket price set by Management ("Face Value"). IN NO EVENT SHALL HOLDER BE ENTITLED TO ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AMOUNT PAID IN EXCESS OF FACE VALUE FOR THE TICKET.
ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CAUSE OF ACTION IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE TICKET OR THE EVENT SHALL BE RESOLVED BY MANDATORY, CONFIDENTIAL, FINAL, AND BINDING ARBITRATION IN LANDOVER, MARYLAND, REGARDLESS OF WHERE HOLDER RESIDES OR FROM WHERE THE TICKET WITH WHICH HOLDER SEEKS ADMISSION WAS PURCHASED. HOLDER AND MANAGEMENT AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES SHALL BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. HOLDER UNDERSTANDS, ACKNOWLEDGES, AND AGREES THAT HOLDER IS WAIVING HOLDER'S RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL AND ANY RIGHT TO LITIGATE OR ARBITRATE ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, OR CLASS ARBITRATION. IF HOLDER DOES NOT CONSENT TO THIS CLAUSE, HOLDER MUST LEAVE OR NOT ENTER THE STADIUM. THIS CLAUSE IS GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.
The Event date and time (and gate and parking lot(s) opening) are subject to change at Management's sole discretion, and no such change shall entitle Holder to a refund or other remedy at law or in equity if Holder cannot attend or for any other reason. Please also be aware that there are certain games scheduled during the NFL's flexible scheduling window for which the date and time of the games may be changed from what is originally reflected on the schedule and what may appear on the Ticket. For more information about NFL flexible scheduling procedures for the 2025 NFL Season, please visit **https://www.nfl.com/schedules/flexible-scheduling-procedures**. Holder may be relocated in Management's sole discretion, and no such relocation shall entitle Holder to a refund or other remedy if Holder is relocated to a seat, location, or parking area of comparable Face Value.
Holder must comply with all Event policies including without limitation policies addressing security, fan conduct, health and safety, bags, parking, and/or tailgating. Holder, Holder's vehicle, and Holder's belongings may be searched or assessed prior to or upon entry to the Stadium or any time thereafter. Prohibited items may be confiscated and Holder's admission may be denied or revoked at Management's sole discretion. Holder consents to such searches and assessments and waives all related claims. If Holder does not consent, Holder acknowledges Management has the right to deny or revoke Holder's admission without refund. Management and the NFL (in the case of NFL Events) each reserve the right to deny or revoke the admission of, and to ban from future Events, any person who it determines, in its sole discretion, poses a risk to the health, safety, or enjoyment of other attendees or whose conduct violates these Terms, any Event or Stadium policies, including, without limitation, the Fan Code of Conduct and/or any signage posted in or around the Stadium, or is otherwise disorderly (or complicit therein) without refund.
Unauthorized entry into the field of play or other restricted areas, interfering with the progress of any game or event, attempting any physical contact with an event participant, and/or any other disorderly conduct deemed dangerous, inappropriate, or in violation of the Stadium code of conduct or any other relevant security policies is strictly prohibited. Violators will be removed from the Stadium and subject to arrest and prosecution, forfeiture of Ticket privileges, and other penalties including up to a lifetime ban. Violators may also be subject to civil penalties and/or fines, as well as financial liability for any damages, costs or injuries incurred as a result of such unauthorized entry or interference. Such conduct constitutes a serious breach of the Team's and the Stadium's safety and security protocols, and violators assume any and all risks associated therewith, including the risk of personal injury (including death), and the risk of loss or damage to personal property.
Holder agrees not to create, transmit, display, distribute, exploit, misappropriate, or sell (or aid in such activity) (1) in any form, any description or account (whether text, data, or visual, and including, without limitation, play-by-play data) of the Event or related events (collectively, "Descriptive Data") for any commercial or non-personal, purpose; (2) any images, videos, audio, or other form of display or public performance or reproduction of any portion of the Event or related events ("Works") for any commercial or non-personal purpose; or (3) livestreams of any portion of the Event or related events ("Livestreams"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder agrees that by causing the Ticket to be scanned upon entry to the Event or otherwise entering the Event, Holder shall be deemed to have signed the Ticket and granted the Team, and, in connection with NFL Events, the NFL, an exclusive worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, sub-licensable, royalty-free license to all rights associated with any Works, Livestreams, and Descriptive Data. Holder grants irrevocable permission to the Team, the NFL (in connection with NFL Events), and their respective affiliates, sponsors, licensees, advertisers, broadcasters, designees, partners, and agents to use, publish, distribute, and/or modify Holder's image, likeness, voice, actions, and statements in any medium including, without limitation, audio, video, or images of the Event for any purpose without further authorization or compensation, and waives all claims and potential claims relating to such use unless prohibited by law.
Any collection, use, and/or disclosure of Holder data in connection with Holder's use of the Ticket license, attendance at the Event, or use of the websites, mobile applications, and other online or offline services of the NFL, the Team, or the Stadium, including without limitation use of the Stadium Wi-Fi network, (the "Services"), are subject to: (1) the Team's Privacy Policy located at https://www.commanders.com/about-us/privacy-policy, if in connection with an NFL Event, or (2) the Stadium's Privacy Policy located at https://northweststadium.com/privacy-policy, if in connection with a non-NFL Event, each of which provides greater detail on how Holder's personal information may be used and how to exercise any rights Holder might have under applicable law. By using the Services, Holder acknowledges that Holder has read and understood the terms of the Team's and the Stadium's Privacy Policy.
HOLDER KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY ASSUMES ALL RISKS, HAZARDS, AND DANGERS incident to the Event and related events, and use of the parking lot(s) and any related activities, including the risk of damage or injury to personal property and the risk of personal injury (including death), exposure to communicable diseases, viruses, bacteria, or illnesses (including, e.g., COVID-19) or the causes thereof, or lost, stolen, or damaged property, whether occurring before, during, or after the Event, however caused, and hereby waives all claims and potential claims relating to such risks, hazards, and dangers.
