I'd be sweeping the visitors locker room for bugs and cameras.

Looks like the Pats Ownership feel they need to lure fans to their over priced games now that they’re not a lock to win the division anymore. We’ll see if it works.

The article was kinda vague on what the interior space will be used for, but I imagine there’s going to be a large gambling devoted area similar to what the Pegulas et al have described for our new place.

 

Gambling just seems to get butts in seats. I’ve never really understood the allure, an AP stats course hammered it into me that gambling isn’t a great use of money, nor have I ever really had enough money to just 🔥💰 / 💸.

A stadium that is only 20 years old getting renovated and not being being completely replaced?  Like I said...

Hopefully we do this right and not typical NY state style.

I am not familiar with the NY State school of design.  What would count as "typical"?

They actually tried, but the engineers couldn’t determine a way to design a roof to contain the pile of ***** that is Robert Kraft.

Thy're putting in a new state of the art hacker room that will allow them to hear coaches communicating, referee conferences, even QB headsets.  Plus a new video room that self destroys all illegal videos immediately after being used.

what about high tech VR technology that shows/ hides penalties to the refs when there wasn’t/was

The cheapest looking design at twice what it would cost to build it elsewhere.

How many of you have been to Foxboro for a game?  Patriot Place is more than just a stadium, the entertainment complex is huge.  Look it up on Google maps/satellite.  

[Bubba Gump]

Well, why not renovate. They don't need any xtra space for more banners anytime in the near future.

I really don't like the New England Patriots.

My comment wasnt about stadium design but site and area development.

 

Watched an Eire county politcian saying were aren't developers but would support any business trying to move there. That gives me zero confidence , which is the norm for NY state government.

Have they considered adding a Spy Museum annex?  Every P*ts fan I know has said they had no issue with spying so it would be very popular.

My gut feeling is we won't. Everyone says infrastructure but idgaf. So what the city is booming for a week. 

 

Nyc is like that all the time. Quite yanking us around Roger, you been quietly holding our team over our head about a stadium. We got it done. Throw me a freaking bone hereeree

Efff the Boston globe too. I've never been on the site and they csnt even do one free promotional article a year. 

Maybe I'll sign up tmrw if bruins got knocked off tonight. Bathe in their tears

I don’t think you will get it because it isn’t a Dome stadium in a cold weather market.. you imagine a SB there between say the Rams and Tampa Bay in a middle of a blizzard. Lol

Also all built with Krafts money not a dime of taxpayer money.. and the state still screwed them because all he wanted was the roads to be upgraded and fixed.. which they didn’t do. Lol
