If, despite the best efforts of the Virginia State Police, the Secret Service, the Park Police, and MPD, you actually DO manage to get to the Mall for the Inauguration, you should probably not rely on your cell phone to be your only means of contacting your companions. According to The Root, all the major carriers are planning temporary capacity increases for DC on Inauguration day, but you really shouldn’t count on being able to use your phone that much. There’s only so much the carriers can do, and there’s bound to be overflow issues.
So make your meetup plans the old-fashioned way, just in case.
