Also known as Schaefer Stadium and Sullivan Stadium, it's hard to disagree with the book on this. The Garden and Fenway were so very hyped and Gillette is so state of the art, that Foxboro reminds some of a simpler time. When New England football was the weak link in Boston sports, where John Hannah, the greatest lineman ever, was the star. Foxboro sounds like a wonderful place to be even if it was god awful. It was also sent out in fitting style. The Snow Bowl. Vinatieri sent the Pats into the AFC Championship Game in 2001 and they eventually won the Super Bowl in Foxboro's final season.
Have to take your word for it. :)
