Welp, Ed Sheeran is coming to Massachusetts this fall, playing what’s billed as his biggest United States show ever. It goes down September 25 at Gillette Stadium, two days before the Patriots take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Foxboro.
To get New England all riled up in ways that “Thinking Out Loud” could never possibly do, Gillette Stadium just tweeted out two pics of Sheeren decked out in a home Patriots jersey, showing off the number 25 and what looks like a Super Bowl XLIX championship ring.
We think the significance of the number has to do with the date the 24-year-old Sheeran plays Gillette, though the organization might have just had some old Kyle Arrington jerseys lying around after the cornerback was cut back in 2013.
Is this as cool as Kendrick Lamar rocking an old school Patriots jacket in the “King Kunta” video? We’ll let you, dear reader, be the judge of that.
Take a look, and #freetombrady:
.@edsheeran playing his biggest U.S. show EVER here on 9/25? That has a nice ring to it.
