Description
The walkway to the field at Gillette Stadium, home of the National Football League New England Patriots, in Foxboro Massachusetts. Proudly displayed above the scoreboard on the far side of the stadium are the banners celebrating the Patriots four Super Bowl wins in 2001,2003,2004, and 2004.
It also serves as the home stadium for Major League Soccer's New England Revolution. In 2012, it also became the home stadium for the football program of the University of Massachusetts (UMass), making it the largest football stadium in the Mid-American Conference. The facility opened in 2002, replacing the old Foxboro Stadium. The seating capacity is 68,756, including 6,000 club seats and 87 luxury suites. The stadium is owned and operated by Kraft Sports Group, a subsidiary of The Kraft Group, the company through which businessman Robert Kraft owns the Patriots and Revolution. The stadium was originally known as CMGI Field before the naming rights were bought by Gillette after the dot-com bust. Although Gillette has since been acquired by Procter & Gamble, the stadium retains the Gillette name because P&G has continued to use the Gillette brand name and because the Gillette company was founded in the Boston area.
