GILLETTE STADIUM
|
|
FOXBORO, MA
|
For the first time in its history,
Gillette Stadium will not only be the home of the NFL's New England
Patriots, but the newest member of the MAC, the Massachusetts
Minutemen. Football has been played at the University of
Massachusetts since 1879 and at Warren McGurik Alumni Stadium since
1965. As part of the Minutemen's move from the Colonial Athletic
Association conference into the MAC is to upgrade their existing
stadium. Warren McGurik Alumni Stadium currently seats 17,000 and
will be expanded to seat 25,000. During the 2012 and 2013 seasons,
the Minutemen will play their home games at Gillette Stadium in
Foxboro, MA. Gillette Stadium has been the home of the New England
Patriots since 2002. The stadium has 68,000 seats, the majority on
both sidelines consisting of three seating decks. The lower section
of seats nearly enclose the field, while the club and upper levels
of seating are on both sides of the gridiron. All of the seats are
angled toward the 50 yard line giving fans an excellent view of the
action on the field. Gillette Stadium has 80 luxury suites and over
6,000 club seats. Two massive video/scoreboards are located beyond
both endzones. UMass will also play four home games here each season
from 2014 to 2016.
