Crowds pack Metro as they head into DC for July 4th celebrations

The best things in life are free... including the Metro tonight! 🙌🚇If you’re down at the National Mall or anywhere else in the DMV area, you don’t need to worry about topping off your transit card. Fare gates are open, and rides are 100% free until closing. Watch out for the massive July 4th crowds, but look out for the friendly Metro staff waving everyone through. 🎆✨
