Pizza, But Make It Bigger
Sal’s Pizza is a frequent stop for fans of the New England Patriots and others visiting Gillette Stadium throughout the year.
This year, Sal’s announced a new option at the stadium as it will offer the signature giant slice, which is half of an 11-inch by 8.5-inch pizza. It will be available in cheese or pepperoni.
Sal’s is also offering their 12-inch gluten-free and 17-inch round pizzas in the Gillette Stadium suites.
To celebrate the new options, Sal’s will offer a free small pizza the day after any Patriots win during the regular season. This offer is new this year, and guests must purchase an extra-large pizza to redeem the free small pizza, company officials said.
The offer is valid in-store only at the following locations:
