Where does Gillette Stadium rank in terms of stadiums across the league?
According to one recent list put out by Touchdown Wire, not very high. Gillette comes in at No. 23.
"The concept of stadiums with open end zones was a thing from the early 2000s, and it is a feature at Foxborough," the story says. "The problem is it doesn’t open up to a beautiful skyline or a majestic view. The weather is also awful at the end of the season and into the playoffs."
Gillette Stadium opened in 2002 and is now considered one of the older stadiums in the league, considering how fast new ones are being built.
The top five were: AT&T Stadium (Dallas), Lumen Field (Seattle), Lambeau Field (Green Bay), State Farm Stadium (Arizona) and U.S. Bank Stadium (Minnesota).
