Default Anyone heard this rumor?

I heard a rumor from a friend who is an electrician that he heard from another guy who he works with who he considers a credible source that the Patriots are going to try to add seats to Gilette Stadium in the near future by closing in the open end. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY completely SKETCHY so please spare me the nasty replies and any mocking of this post. I was just wondering if anyone else knew anything about this because if it is true I think that would be pretty cool. I had not heard anything about this before.

This is the first I've heard of it but it makes sense with respect to money and crowd noise.

If we can't mock or be nasty, what use is there to living?

It's the birthright of every New Englander. That's why we come off as douches to the rest of the country...and we like it that way!

I heard this rumor on a message board - it may have been Pats Fans.

Hopefully it's true because I've been saying this for awhile. By filling in the part highlighted in yellow, you add thousands of seats which lets people who've been waiting for years on the waiting list get STs; it also will help the crowd noise.

I'm not going to be able to drive my car into the stadium anymore but if it'll add more crowd noise then I'm down.

Rumours that start with I know this guy who knows this guy and he told another guy his dog told him the cat was banging the goldfish........they're usualy not true.

It would make sense though..

I actually think it doesn't make sense. It is admitting they did something wrong to one of the sate of the art faciliities. Which I am not saying they did.

The end was intentially left as open aired for a reason. To show off the New England touches (the light house and bridge). I don't think they are going to cover that stuff up.
