What is the logo? (1 Viewer)

[Amishmen]

Please enlighten me. What is the logo along the sidelines at the 50 yard line on New England's filed.The Gray thing with yellow lightning bolts coming out of it.

I believe there is a silouette of the stadium at the 20 or 30 yard markers... but on the 50yard mark is the Pats logo

This question has been asked a few times each of the last couple years.I believe it's a logo for the stadium.

It's an image of the lighthouse that's in one endzone.

A bunch of us were looking at it last night and we were trying to figure it out. Some of the guesses were: a razor, a bridge, part of a face mask, an ice cream scoop, a vibrator.Yes we were drunk but it sure is a goofy looking logo.

It is a talisman that makes them invincible in the playoffs.

Perhaps it symbolizes the five layers of Visa security.....

Someone told me they were supposed to be Stealth Fighters. I don't see it, though.

Ok...that is one question...the other is what is the point of having a corner of the stadium basically missing?Down on the one endzone, there are no corner seats? Is there a point to this large opening? Basically just missing out on some good lower level seating.

It's a graphic of the bridge and lighthouse, two unique architectural features of the stadium.

Modern stadium architecture / design tries to bring the cityscape in to the stadium. That's a fancy way of saying that fans can see the city from their seats.Not knowing the sightline of the stadium I can't comment, but Philly and Baltimore do this.

It is actually a visual image that depicts the disrespect that Tom Brady feels.

Heinz Field also has an open end which shows the city skyline.

It also allows in the smell.

Foxboro is a fairly small town near no big city and thus doesn't have any semblance of a skyline. (I've stayed there many times on past business trips.)

I can't recall if you can see the Boston skyline from that part of the stadium (I'm pretty sure you can't) but you CAN see it from the top of Route 1 as you come into Walpole, a few miles past the stadium. On a clear day, you can see the entire Boston skyline.

Is that Jon Bon Jovi on the right hand side of the header graphic?
