    I am coming down from Saskatchewan Canada to my first ever Jets game. I will be in Gillette Stadium for the Nov. 16th game vs the Patriots. My wife and her parents got my flights and tickets for my convocation with my university degree. I can't wait.

    I guess I am sitting in the Visitors section, is there lots fo Jets fans who go. I am pretty good on my Irish history, but what else should I be checking out in Boston. I am also coming to NY for 2 days and one night.

    Awesome, I have it on the itinerary, this will be my first time ever heading East whether it be Canada or U.S.

    I really hope the Jets don't stinnk the place up like the Raiders game.

    Make sure you travel early -- the game is on the 13th -- Thursday night -- not the 16th

    Awesome -- remember if a Pats fan gives you a hard time just be the better man and walk away -

    Yeh will do, I was wondering what the atmosphere is like for a Jets Pats game, being in Saskatchewan, our rider fans are a crazy bunch and as a visitor fan I would not come here for a game. Fights and lots of alchohol are commonplace. I have never been to an NFL game before so I was wondering about that. I just want to enjoy the game and do not want to get in trouble. How many Jets fans will there be in the visitors section. The office told me lots in my section but didn't give any numbers.

    It's a Thursday night game so there's going to be some rowdy drunks. They have all day to tailgate and get liquored up.

    Nice to see another canadian Jets fan. There are quite a few on this board and we are all diehards. Have a good time at the game it will be an experience you won't forget.

    Have you been to Gillette to see a game before, I am going only on CFL experiance and visitor fans in Sask. arent welcome, especially after a Rider loss.

    I am also Jets green first, I can't wait to go, we are close enough to get a good view of the visitors bench so I will get to see the players really well

    Good game to start with. One of the best within the conference in years.
