i don't know what all the fuss is about. We had a lovely day at gillette. Our limo skirted past the blockage at the parking corrals and pulled up to the sky box entrance unhindered. Our suite concierge, alexander, greeted us at the private elevator with champagne flukes and guided us up to an elaborate brunch featuring local seafoods as well as some nonregional fare. I heard the stone crab arrived that morning (you could taste the freshness). A mr. Robert kraft spoke to those who had interest, but we set off to the suite to discover what new electronics were in place. Four flat screens were nice, but the senior execs were most impressed with a fully outfitted ps3. Two dozen games were available....the usual sports choices and fun games...but the latest halo was a grand hit.
At 1:00pm, it was game time. We briefly opened the windows and participated in the welcome ovation. We were very excited. Of course it wouldn't be a true sporting event if wagering wasn't present. Several partners pulled out their money clips....and the fantasy bets came fast and furious. As we waited for the cbs feed to recap rb and wr stats, alexander arrived with flights of wines fron sonoma. I was quite partial to a merlot from a little vineyard in northern sonoma that i will keep secret for selfish reasons. I even snapped a photo of the label with my new droid....outstanding detail.
Our suite was centrally located to the field elevator and a couple of us wandered down to the sidelines in the 2nd quarter and took pictures with some rb that wasn't dressed in his game outfits. Good fun. When it began to get a little too noisy, we escaped back to the suite...just in time for ice cream sundays.
The afternoon was wonderful, and we even managed to get back to the ritz before the 4:15pm games started. And to top off a marvelous experience, i managed to win my fantasy game, thanks to the patriots defense...16 points....i had no idea.
