Question about tickets - New England Patriots Forums

I have never been to Gillette, but i think I'm going to this year. I just have one question. Are the standing room only tickets worth getting? How is the view? Also, where exactly are the SRO "seats" located? thanks

dont do it man. spend the extra few bucks to get a seat, even if its in the top row. the standing places are all over, but if you move, you lose your spot and have to look over someone's shoulder three feet from the rail.

You stand wherever you want. People get into the stadium real early to get the best spots. It all depends where you like to watch a game from, you could watch the game from the lower level behind the endzone, or go up to the 300's and stand to the right if the SB flags. I just know that people go into the stadium well before everyone else to get their favorite spot.

What do they do about bathroom breaks and getting food?
Do they just hold it for 3 and a half hours?

Don't bother with SRO tickets. With Brady out there are plenty of seats available on ticketexchange. SRO can be miserable if the weather is less than perfect.

There are way to many reasons not to do standing room to fully explain if you have never done it but the main thing would be if your tailgating that = a lot of drink and if you leave to go to the bathroom that = losing your spot.
Better to just have seats so you don’t have to worry about these things IMO

There have been lots of threads about the pros and (mostly) cons of SRO tix. You may be able to find some via a search. Personally, I think they're fine - for other people. Just like public transportation and hand washing.
