Hello everyone, I am PUMPED to say I will be making my first trip to see our beloved NEP play at home next Monday.:rocker:
I will be traveling from Ft. Collins (one hour north of Denver) and have never been out east.
I am inquiring about help with some game day planning and timelines.
I booked a room at the Courtyard on Tremont St in Boston and am having trouble finding out the proper subway routes to get to Gillette on game day.
I know the train makes a special trip on game day but I want to be there and watch warm ups.
Does anyone know the best way to get to the stadium?
What time should I be there to watch the players warm up?
How long should I give myself to check out the area?
My next concern is weather. I have nerve damage in my right leg and right forearm as well as 3 torn discs in my lower back. As you can imagine the cold weather reeks havoc on my body - which by the way is only 30 . I bought Under Armour Cold Gear compression pants and shirt to wear under many layers of clothes.
I was thinking Under Armour, Jeans, Snow Pants as well as wool socks. Then under shirt, Under Armour, Long John shirt, sweat shirt, jacket and jersey over jacket.
What are some game day "outfits" that you all have put together to survive?
------------------------------------------------------------------
I also read that the stadium doesn't allow any type of bag in the facility. Has any one had any problems with that? I was thinking about bringing a blanket to wrap up in if need be for me or my wife.
I also found out that the Hall is closing early on Monday. Do you think I should go early and rush through it on Monday or wait and go on Tuesday.

Thanks for any and all advice/opinions I am really excited to make the trip!!!
