Green Flag

Football is the great American pastime and while I enjoy watching football, I love going to see football games live. The energy of the crowd and the excitement of the arena aren’t real until you are sitting on the bleachers watching your favorite team, listening to the roar of the crowd. While my husband favors watching football from the comfort of our living room couch, I like to take in the whole experience. Traveling to Foxborough, Massachusetts, I wait for my favorite team, the New England Patriots, to kick off as I tailgate with my husband and our friends.

I’ve always been a fan of the New England Patriots but now that Tom Brady is the quarterback, I am even more interested in following the team. While my crush on Tom solidified my love of the Patriots, I also enjoy the time with my family and friends as we cheer the New England Patriots on to victory. We’ve made a family tradition of traveling to Foxborough the night before a big game, spending the night in a local hotel, waking up early to catch a big breakfast and get to Gillette Stadium early to set up our tailgating spot. We barbeque hotdogs and chat with friends. The kids run around with their friends and the men start playing a game of touch football. Just thinking about the fun we have makes me ready for some football right now.
