Caps fans returned to Verizon Center on Thursday for the first regular season game since last Spring. This place has EVERYTHING. It has…

Stilt walkers!

An inflatable jersey!

Ovie the bulldog! (More on him later)

Face painting!

Fake tattoos…

And no 24 hour waiting period!

Chad Dukes!

Ovi and Brooksie dolls!

Caps pillow pets!

A Chick-fil-A cow mascot!

MERCHANDISE!

A brass band!

Face painting!

Worst post ever!

We’re not entirely sure if a hockey game was being played, though.
