Gillette stadium etiquette

[SmokeShowin]

I think R-A-T-S Rats Rats Rats is the way to go all game long

This is the one I want to hear. Hopefully everyne will get into it.

if you are such an idiot that you would bring your 9-yr old daughter to a pats game, then you should lose custody of the kid... what are you, stupid? would you bring her to a bar? no? but you would bring her to a place with 35,000 more drunks than any bar, and you know she wouldnt understand the game anyways (unless you think she is the next coming of BB).... you, my sir, are a moron.. take her to disney on ice... try to not be a dumbass parent.

My GF's brother brought his wife and 4 year old son to the Cleveland game because we were in NH. No problems at all, but then again it's the same season ticket holders that sit around us and we know they're not asses. Her nephew had a blast. The downside is that since then every time we're heading out for a game, he's all bummed out. He'll be going to the Miami game next week though.

spoken by a true douche bag... stay at home, loser.

Ignore fgssand's advice and then see who's a loser and no longer has his/her season tickets!

The Krafts have made it clear they want a family friendly environment and would hapilly kick anyone calling some drunk idiot calling people a douche bag out of the stadium, take away their season tickets, and rescind their rights as an official Patriot fan as they lower the bell curve for the rest of us.

This is to the complete losers posting here who advocate swearing and tossing snowballs. Go find another team to root for. You won't be missed. The Phins and Jets need fans. You'd fit right in with Jets New Joisey style low life culture.

If you had any upbringing and the sense to come in out of the rain (well, I guess that 2nd one doesn't apply to Sunday) you'd realize that the Krafts are really adamant about creating a family friendly atmosphere at Gillette. And before you start going all Internet Tough Guy in response, yeah, I went to games at the old stadium and went theough all kinds of fan experiences there.

Me, I intend to leave hoarse after yelling RATS! cheers and whatever abusing the perfidious Jets for 60 minutes Full Tilt Full Time. But I won't be offending any families.

 

[SmokeShowin]

I don't advocate throwing snowballs either and wouldn't do it. But, considering who we're playing, if some drunk wants to get brave and fire a few Mangini's way I will laugh my ass off. :rocker:

normally i sit in the high seats, where security doesnt really care about, but due to everyone bailing from the weather, ive acquired seats within earshot of mangina.
i am likely to be without a voice by the second quarter, as i have quite a bit of things to say to the mangina (just about every swear i know, and maybe some new ones), but will this get me booted?

i'd say no, as long as you are not totally vulgar. I'm sure there will be lots around you assisting in the assault!

It's a damn shame that people like you make other people not want to bring their kids to enjoy a football game.

And so what if the kids don't know every X and O that goes on? Doesn't mean they don't deserve to enjoy the game as much as anyone else.

I'll never understand why some people can't just enjoy their team, they have to bring down everyone else to make themselves feel better.

Do you realize that people worry about kids seeing your behavior because you're setting a bad example? Parents don't want their kids to grow up to be like you. Who would?

Not to worry - the Krafts want kids there. It's called fan cultivation as the Krafts are actually smart enough to realize that 9 year olds grow up to be paying customers themselves.

That's why they wouldn't think twice about tossing out guys like PatsWorldChamps!

As for snowballs, I can't believe some people would be glad to see Mangini hit with a few. Okay, you don't like what he did to BB and the Pats. So I guess that makes it okay for someone he's never met to throw a possibly dangerous projectile from some unknown place where he won't see it coming. Consider that his back will be to the stands for most of the game. Will you feel proud to be a Patriots fan is somebody pegs him on the back of the head with a snowball? With the rain and sleet expected, the snowball is likely to be hard and compacted. He's likely to get a concussion.

People dont' have perfect aim either. What is a snowball goes astray and hits some trainer who's just doing his job. Those sidelines are pretty crowded. Will you feel good about it then?

How's this for a scenario? Drunken idiot fans throw snowballs at Mangini and other members of the Jets, causing the Jets to fear for their safety. The Jets leave the field, and the Patriots forfeit the game, thus ending a perfect season.

People, don't be stupid. Even if you hate Mangini with a passion, just be cool for the other 99% of Patriot fans with a brain in their head.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Don't worry. Any of these so-called 'fans' throw anything from my section in the 100s, I'll report their @$$ and watch 'em get tossed out and likely arrested.

whoa. do that and you'll sound like just another low class, no class, jets fan, so mangiani will probably think you're cursing the patriots.

more importantly, let's not have the blade become the same kind of place as the meadowlands to watch a game where you can't bring your kids because some moron is trying to show how many curse words he knows.

 

[ShrewBeer]

alright, its seems some of you are for killing him, but most of you dont want to even hear any swears.
im not gonna throw anything, thats just a fantasy. i will try not to teach little kids new swears, but i certainly cannot guarantee a few profane screams in the heat of the moment, and i will be taunting him the entire game

Please, its the RAZOR not the blade

"If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a snowball"

Instead of throwing snowballs, throw wrenches

 

[NovaScotiaPatsFan]

Wouldn't you rat on a child molester?

Secondly, outside the realm of football, "Ratting" is our moral obligation. If we see someone breaking the law, we call the police. Personally, I take a lot of pride in this responsibility.

But the kind of ratting Mangini is guilty of is absolutely unforgiveable!

Exactly, there's a difference between pointing the finger at some random punks who beat the crap out of defenceless old guy and someone who rats out their own people.

"you know what a hosser is? It's a pig that don't fly straight!"

 

[Disco Volante]

You know as much as people always ask to "Think of the children!" they without a doubt hear worse things on the bus ride to school then they would in a profanity driven football crowd...

I don't think people should be throwing snowballs anyway... but if you're throwing as some anonymous person in a giant crowd, throwing from where he can't see it coming and has no opportunity to defend himself, that's pretty chickens**t right there.

I would hope that adults can act more mature than children on a school bus.

I suppose some people can't though.

 

[apricissimus]

Does anyone even think that insults from the crowd are going to faze Mangini, or anyone else on the bench? They have to know it's coming. What's really going to affect them is getting beaten on the field.

 

[nepatz11]

I love how half the people on here think Gillette is too rowdy and not a good place to bring kids, and the other half think Gillette is too quiet and not rowdy enough. It goes to show you how much our persepctive play a part of our observations.


Anyways I think you can yell some great stuff withou being profane. I try not to swear but sometimes I let one slip when something bad happens.

As for the snowballs i would never do it but come on you KNOW someone is going to throw one right at Mangini I think it can be funny as long as it doesnt get out of hand


R..........A..........T..........S RATS RATS RATS!
