Patriots Field

[Paisan]

Forgive me if we've talked about this already, but what is that thing on the Patriots field? It looks like a record player arm shooting electricity. I don't get it? What does it have to do with the Patriots?

You must mean the logo on the field at Gillette Stadium.

I think it's a graphical representation of the tower built into the stadium.

That thing sticking up on the right-hand side...that's it. Closer-up:

That's the handle of the enema stick. ;)

Tom Brady scares the poop out of most people that play against him so enema's aren't necessary for teams that play against him.

Yeah, but did he ever scare...Buckeye Nation??? *dun dun dunnnnn*

Yeah, he beat us at least once during the Cooper years... or as we in the Nation call it... the Dark times.

The serious answer: It's a lighthouse. It's there to incorporate a little "New England" into the stadium's architecture.

A lighthouse? Wow, never would've guessed that. Thanks.

Keeping with that spirit, "The British Are Coming," will be displayed at random intervals during this Sunday's AFC Championship.

And after the Packers beat the Giants at Lambeau, the PA system will pump Mark Lindsay's "Arizona." :cheers:
