New England Patriots jumbotron outside Gillette Stadium hacked
Recently, a jumbotron at the Patriots team facility has gone viral after being hacked with a display of a message for all of New England. “Gay Furry Pride B**ches,” it said with an interesting image.
Even though the New England Patriots are accustomed to making headlines, this particular incident had nothing to do with off-season transactions or football plays. On Monday, a digital billboard close to Gillette Stadium was compromised, displaying an audacious and surprising message.

When a digital billboard outside Gillette Stadium, the home field of the New England Patriots, was taken over and used to show a vibrant message in support of g*y furry pride, commotion broke out. Despite the fact that the Patriots organization was unrelated to the incident, the story gained immediate attention due to the sign’s prominent placement close to their team complex.
This wasn’t an unintentional upload or a random bug. According to reports, the hack may have been connected to the “gay furry” movement, which combines anthropomorphic animal art and culture with LGBTQ+ pride.
It’s interesting to note that similar incidents have occurred before. Recently, animated furry creatures were hacked into lottery billboards in Oregon, raising the possibility that this is a part of a larger effort to raise awareness of the community in an unusual way.
Although the Patriots’ billboard stunt’s exact perpetrator is still unknown, the message was clear and it definitely had people talking.
Reactions on social media
The surprising show caused a stir on social media and among NFL fans, as was to be expected. While some Patriots fans laughed at the absurdity of it all, others quipped that this was the most thrilling event to occur at Gillette Stadium this season.
Memes swiftly took over sites like X (previously Twitter), with users comparing the rapid takeover of the billboard to the Patriots’ defense being “hacked” on the field.

The Patriots haven’t yet issued an official statement, but the compromised billboard has since resumed its normal content. Although the team’s primary focus is still probably on rebuilding for the upcoming NFL season, this viral event has undoubtedly given their off-season story a surprising turn.
This “hack” was a huge hit in the realm of viral sports events, regardless of whether it was a lighthearted stunt or part of a bigger campaign for representation.
