RICHMOND, Va. (WTVR) -- Faye Roney won't let a six-hour drive keep her from seeing her favorite football team. Roney, who is in her 80s, has been rooting for the Redskins for more than 40 years.

She said she is one of the team's most dedicated fans. In fact, she drove more than six hours from Pennsylvania with her son so that she could attend training camp on Monday.

"What can I say, I love the Redskins," said Roney. "You stick with your team."

When CBS 6 caught up with Roney, she was decked out from head to toe with Redskins gear, and was picking out more in the merchandise store.

The avid fan said she has just as much 'Skins memorabilia inside her Pennsylvania home.
