Hey you guys, welcome back to Ask Velvet. It's your girl Velvet, and I'm so glad you're here with me today. Go ahead and get comfortable whether you're relaxing at home, riding in the car, or just taking a moment for yourself, because we're about to get into it. This season is going to feel a little different for me. And I already know it. For the past two years I had the experience of being a season ticket holder for the Washington Commanders, something I never imagined growing up in a red skin commander's household. It wasn't just about the games, it was about the energy, the community, and the feeling of truly belonging every single Sunday. Being in that stadium week after week created a rhythm in my life. The familiar faces, the fans around me who turned into game day family. It all became part of my routine. There's something special about walking into your section and feeling like you're exactly where you're supposed to be. And I have to take a moment to shout out my section. Section 131, Seat 23. That was my spot. That's where I sat for the last year as a seasoned ticket holder. And that seat holds so many memories for me. That was home on game day. And I also have to shout out the ushers in my section. You guys were incredible. For those two years, you made me feel like family. Every single game you knew my name, welcomed me in, and just brought such a good energy. Honestly, y'all made me feel like a superstar every time I walked in there. That kind of experience, you can't put a price on that. You didn't just do your jobs. You made the game more fun, more personal, more memorable. And I truly had the best ushers I could have ever asked for. That's what I'm going to miss the most this season. Not just the seat, but the connection. The vibe in that stadium is something special. The music, the cheering, the unity. It's electric. Whether we were winning or not, the energy never left. I showed up every game ready. Outfit on point, spirit high, just ready to vibe with my people. Now, even though I'm not a seasoned ticket holder this year, I'm still showing up. I'm still coming to games when I can, bringing that same energy, that same excitement, that same love for the team. And I'm really hoping that at least one game, I can sit back in section 131 again, maybe even seat 23 if I'm lucky. But even if that doesn't happen, I'm definitely coming through to see my people because you all meant that much to me. I'm going to make it a point to stop by and say hello, no matter where I'm sitting. So yeah, this season will be different, but it won't take away what those last two years meant to me. I'm grateful for every moment, every game, every memory, and every person who made that experience what it was. Especially Section one hundred thirty one and those amazing ushers who made me feel like a star. And I know this isn't the end. It's just a pause. I'll be back in those seats one day. Until then, I'll still be in the building, still dressed, still bringing the energy and still vibing with my team. Because no matter where I sit, I'm always going to show up and represent. And if you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to rate, review, and share. Ask Velvet so more people can catch the vibe. I'll catch you in the next one.
