Re: A few questions for Gillette regulars

We're going to be sitting in the 115 section and would like to partake in some tailgating before the game. So, some questions:
Where's the best place to park?
Where does the good tailgating take place?
Any other tips for two Mainers who aren't overly familiar with Gillette?
Thanks for any advice! Go Patriots!!

This post on the "Brady calls out Gillette fans" thread is from another Mainer. Maybe you could meet up with them? I am not sure where the liquor store they mention is on Route 1, but maybe you could PM them.

Not to be a wise ass but you are there with 68,000 other people shouldn't you expect to wait. Dam I pay the price for the ticket-the parkin-the food I'm goin to watch the whole game. Bye the way it is a 2.75 hour ride home for me so no matter when I leave its 7 or 8 till we get home.

We park more toward the 495 side, so that probably wouldn't work for you. There is plenty of tailgating in every lot (from what I have seen).

"People say, 'What will you do if you don't play football?' Why would I even think of doing anything else? What would I do instead of run out in front of 80,000 people and command 52 guys and be around guys I consider brothers and be one of the real gladiators? Why would I ever want to do anything else? It's so hard to think of anything that would match what I do: Fly to the moon? Jump out of planes? Bungee-jump off cliffs? None of that s--- matters to me. I want to play this game I love, be with my wife and son, and enjoy life." - Tom Brady
