The New England Patriots ... A Storied Football Team
In 1959, the Boston Patriots, sometimes referred to as the “Pats” were accepted into the NFL. They were named using a contest in which 74 people picked the winning name.
Initially they played at Boston University Field, but soon moved. After several moves, they eventually settled into their current home, Gillette Stadium, in 2002. Not only have the Patriots changed stadiums quite a bit but they have also changed owners several times, sometimes saving the franchise from bankruptcy or relocation. In 1971, the Boston Patriots were renamed the New England Patriots and in 1995, they became the first NFL team to own their own website.
In 2004, the New England Patriots set a new record for the most consecutive wins, with 18 in a row. The team later beat that record winning 21 games in a row from 2006 through 2008. They won Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville, Florida to become the only team other than the Dallas Cowboys who have ever won three Super Bowls in four years. They have won three out of five appearances at the Super Bowl and are trailing only three other teams for most Super Bowl wins ever.
The New England Patriots Foundation was founded in 1994 to help the New England community. They have many programs geared toward youth and local families. By donating paraphernalia to auctions, making appearances, and raising money themselves, the Pats are making a difference in the world around them.
The New England Patriots are not only devoted to helping their community but are also devoted to their fans. Registered fans on their website are offered special gifts like free wallpaper for their computers, an arcade, and a chat room for fans to interact with each other.
The New England Patriots mascot is somewhat unusual in a game dominated by animal type mascots. Not long after the team was named, the Boston Globe published a picture drawn by Phil Bissell, which depicted a minuteman throwing a football. The owners of the team liked this drawing so much that it became the official mascot of the Pats and was named Pat the Patriot. To this day, Pat is depicted on uniforms and is seen on the sidelines at games rooting his team on to victory.
The home of the New England Patriots, Gillette Stadium, is located in Foxborough, Massachusetts. With seating for 68,756, this stadium offers clubhouse seating and suites for more comfortable viewing experiences. There are three entrances to accommodate fans. The Bank of America entrance features a lighthouse atop it, with a bridge close by. The Patriots Pro Shop allows fans to buy memorabilia of their visit and there are more than 500 “points of sale” with 60 permanent concessions stands.
The New England Patriots are well loved by their fans and with good reason. As a very successful team and a caring group, they offer the best of football right there in Massachusetts.
