Gillette Stadium is known for its 12-story lighthouse and overarching pedestrian bridge at its entrance. But behind the scenes are myriad tunnels and rooms that house the New England Patriots, their visiting teams and all the space needed to make everything happen on game day. That includes the press box, where hundreds of journalists gather to cover the game.
