Welcome aboard.This is my first post here at PatsFans. I found the site about 3-4 years ago, and have been a visitor ever since. When I saw this thread, I figured it was time to join.
My wife and I got married (Oct 7) last year, and we honeymooned in San Fran (we live in Massachusetts). I was able to talk her into a "side trip" down to Dallas, and we saw the Pats beat Dallas in their own home. It was great!! After the game we met Ty Warren, I shook hands with Larry Izzo, Kevin Faulk walked by with his little girl about two feet away from us. Wes Welker was about 15 feet away, and it gave me a perspective about how small he really is, not that it matters, the guy's awesome. During the game, we were about 5 rows back in the corner of the endzone the "shady" end, not the sunny end, and we were the closest we've ever been to the field during a game.
This October we're going back to San Fran for our one year anniversary and... OOPS... The Pats are playing the niners that week! We're already looking at tickets. Can't wait.

Welcome aboard.
I was at the dallas game as well. In the first row behind the goal post on the shady side not to far from you.
I will also be attending the San Fran game this year. I then will head down to San Diego for the followings weeks game. I suggest you try to as well.

Thanks! I've been a visitor for quite awhile. Don't know why I didn't sign up sooner.
Do you remember the pats fan (and his wife) that threw the cowboys T's back at their mascot? The mascot crawled up into the stands and pointed the guy out? That was me. Heh heh. We were in the first row before the metal add on seats. When Brady threw the long bomb to Moss in the corner of the end zone and they said he didn't maintain possession... that was like 25' away from us. Great game to go to.
Hey SBB - you will love the drive from SF > SD - Pacific Coast highway is awesome. Bring lots of money and Make sure you spend some time at Big Sur.
By the way, did you ever tell the story of the game you never made a few years back?? You know - the one VS Tenn, back when you were a teenager - the one where you sprained your ankle playing around in the Patriots Experience.
The way I heard it, your old man had a responsibility to your brothers and to the team to make certain, once you were wheeled into the ambulance he called for you and once he called you Mom to make sure she would meet said ambulance at Hospital - that he then went to the game with your brothers??
Not headin down the Coast....Gonna go to Vegas to kill time in the middle of the week. And if I bring lots of money it might become Vegas'
It was a Fracture and I told the story a few pages back on this thread.
The way you heard it must of been from the mouth of my father. because he never called home for the Mom....She came after the hospital wouldn't admit me without a Parent. Responsibility to the Brothers....one of whom was 20 and didn't need Pops supervision the other was 15 and would have been fine by himself but certainly fine with a 20 year old. Nope Dad thought the game was more important than his wounded little boy.......Its ok though because I agree with him......
I used to be a Correction Officer and I recall watching the Pats/Jets game in 1995-1996 (when they were on their win streak) through the window of an inmates cell.
Working on Sundays sucks.

I was at that game, too. I flew in from Hong Kong for it.
I was thinking about trying to hit those SF and SD games, seeing that they're relatively close(r) to China than NE is. I just kinda hate to kill the week in between.
