Before New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady returned from suspension on October 9, residents at Autumn Glen senior living facility enjoyed a week-long celebration of everything Pats.

Throughout the week, Autumn Glen residents decorated a scarecrow with Patriots attire, had Patriots-themed lunches, and played football-themed games, said Melinda Silva, Autumn Glen’s Marketing Director.

“We have a lot of football fans here,” Silva said. “[Residents] loved it. We had so much fun.”

On October 7, residents concluded the week with a tailgate party featuring a cookout, football squares, a football toss, corn hole games, and more.

The lunch menu featured themed food, including “Do Your Job Chili” and a pulled pork sandwich titled "The #12 Special."

Silva said the facility planned the week’s events in response to the number of football fans who live there, and the excitement building with Brady’s return.
