Alex Ovechkin was at Audi Field for DC United’s game against the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday. Well… sorta.
The Great 8 was one of 13 local star athletes turned into cardboard cutouts and placed in the stands. The group was highlighted by Ryan Zimmerman, Juan Soto, John Wall, Bradley Beal, Chase Young, Elena Delle Donne, and Andi Sullivan.
