What is on the field at Gillette Stadium?

Asked by funkdaddy (17777

There’s an image of a symbol or building on the field right around the 50 yard line near each sideline. Kind of looks like a bridge connected to some spotlights or something. At first I thought it could be the stadium itself but it looks nothing like it. It’s been there for a while but a quick image search didn’t turn up anything showing it clearly. Hope the description is enough for someone.

Well I don’t have a clue what it is, nor what you’re talking about, but I found the website for the Gillette stadium. It appears to be the Gillette stadium logo that you’re referring to:

Notice the logo in the top left.

Googling the Gillette Stadium Logo I found out that it’s the bridge and tower at the entrance of the stadium. (as seen in this picture http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Gillette_Stadium.jpg)

Perchik nailed it. That is the logo for Gillette Stadium. The tower is actually a stylized lighthouse; New England is well-known for its lighthouses.

The actual turf is actually synthetic, with ground up tires to allow cleats to have something to grab into. you will see a lot of high schools ave adopted this for its low maintence and high durability.
