I was there with a coworker who was a huge NE fan. He was talking shit to everyone in our section all game and going off right before the missed kick and poof they lost. It was hilarious.
Strangest thing was on the way out of the stadium we saw a NE fan wearing a Vinatieri jersey (no shit this was before he was anything) and my buddy told him its pretty bad when other NE fans want to kick your ass for wearing that jersey.
Little did we know that day that Vinatieri was going to have a HOF type career.

And kick numerous clutch FGs in horrendous situations like blizzards. It's one of the few reasons why I'm willing to give a guy like Santos a chance. You just never know.
