Whether you are there for a sporting event or a concert, there is no denying that parking at Gillette Stadium is a major pain.

It can often be difficult to find a parking spot near the stadium.  And, when you do find a spot, the prices for event parking are outrageous.  While it probably varies from event to event, we have found that it typically costs anywhere from $25 to $60 to park for a Patriots game.

What if we told you that there was a way that you could be paid to park at Gillette Stadium?  You wouldn’t believe us, would you?

Believe it or not, it is true.

Of course, there are some stipulations.

Parking Options at Gillette Stadium

Gillette Stadium offers several stadium-side parking options.  In most cases, parking costs about $25.  However, there is a way that you can actually be paid to park at Gillette.

To deal with the massive traffic issues that follow a game or concert, the venue offers people who are in no hurry the opportunity to be paid to park.  In exchange for delaying your departure from the venue until 75 minutes after the end of the game/concert, you’ll be gifted with free parking and a $50 VISA card that you can spend like cash.

Let’s face it, considering the amount of traffic, you are going to be delayed leaving Foxborough anyway.  You may as well get paid for it, right?

Of course, Patriot Place is loaded with restaurants and bars.  So, instead of rushing to leave when the event is done, have something to eat and hang out for a bit.
