Fans are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to donate. Collection bins will be at five locations outside the stadium: Patriot Place Plaza, the uBid Gate, the P10 parking crossover on Route 1 and the east and west entrances to the Putnam Club.

  • 2011 Boston Music Awards Pop Rock Artist of the Year nominees Gentleman Hall will perform in Patriot Place Plaza at 7 p.m. as part of the pregame "Rock the Plaza" series. Brockton, Mass. native Jennifer Bradford will sing the national anthem prior to the game.
