Sunday December 3: Opening Day Travel Advisory

Our first game is this Sunday, December 3, noontime at Mass Premier Courts in Mansfield. Mansfield is usually about a 25 minute drive from Dedham, but this Sunday's traffic heading south should be messy - because...

THERE IS A PATRIOTS GAME AT 1:00PM!!!



Anyone who has ever traveled down 95 South or Rte. 140 anywhere near Foxboro on gameday knows that the ride can be a complete disaster. My advice is to leave VERY EARLY ... if you arrive early, Mass Premier isn't the worst place to kill an hour (there are TVs, video games, snack bars, etc.) ... but if you're late, the opening whistle waits for nobody.

Check the traffic before leaving, and if 95 is a wreck, my recommendation is to take 24 South to Rte. 106 West and follow 106 all the way to the courts. That's probably about 10-15 minutes of extra drive time, but if you avoid thousands of drunken loonies all trying to make it to Foxboro before kickoff, it might be worth it.
