Metro Will Still Close at 3 a.m. on Saturday Night

We're set to fall back one hour this weekend, when Daylight Saving Time ends at 2 a.m. on Sunday, November 1. For Metro riders who will be out celebrating Halloween that night, WMATA has just put out its regular reminder that it will still close at 3 a.m. on Saturday night/Sunday morning, despite the time change. That means that there will technically be an extra hour of Metrorail service on Halloween night: when the time goes back an hour at 2 a.m., it'll be 1 a.m., and you'll still have two more hours of ghoulish fun left before the last trains leave.

Yes! I get to prance around in my slutty ballerina costume for an extra hour. That is if I'm not in the hospital or some hunky Hill staffer's bed first. Thanks Metro!

Oh wait...that's someone else's life. I'll be at home, asleep. Have fun kids!

What about the bars? How will the operate with daylight savings time?

Bars are allowed to stay open until 3 a.m. as well.

Sweet I'll take that extra hour gladly! :-)

Oh great, that means that the obnoxious idiots who walk back to their cares at 2am screaming at the top of their lungs have an extra hour to get shitfaced and be assholey. yay. get off my lawn.
