By the end of the year, and after we saw a guy's face pretty much turned into bloody mush by a full kick from the row behind him..... my wife no longer went.

The following year, they moving into Gillette Stadium and Kraft took the opportunity to make the stadium much more "family friendly" and security starting cracking down on super drunks and fights. .... as a result, the waiting list for season tickets ballooned to, last I heard, 65,000+.... That gave the Krafts MORE than enough leeway to basically completely clean the place up. You fart the wrong way in Gillette Stadium now and you're season tickets are GONE. They have 65,000 people waiting to snatch your tickets up so there is a complete zero tolerance policy at the stadium now.

As a matter of fact... there is a very likely chance that I'll be bringing my 7 year old to the game Sunday. He's a huge Pats fan (mainly because he's not a complete moron) and has already been to a couple games. He might not have a chance to see Brady/Manning on the same field again.
