A few notes as the Super Bowls approach:

Coin flips were held this morning to determine the home team for each of Saturday's Super Bowls at Gillette Stadium. The home teams are Dartmouth (Division 1), Chelmsford (Division 1A), Bishop Feehan (Division 2), Hingham (Division 2A), Swampscott (Division 3), and Greater Lawrence (Division 3A).

Coaches and captains from Super Bowl-bound squads also visited Gillette Stadium this afternoon to tour the facility for the first time. The Patriots passed along a note with what sideline each team will play on. Teams playing on the East sideline are East Boston, Medfield, Gloucester, Marshfield, Everett, and Walpole.

Gillette Stadium officials also asked to pass along the following information for fans attending Saturday's games:

  • Fans are encouraged to arrive early and allow enough time to purchase tickets and enter the stadium prior to the start of their game of interest.

  • Parking lots open at 8 a.m.

  • Fans arriving from the south via Route 495 should enter the stadium parking lots via the P7 entrance. Fans arriving from the north via Route 95 should enter the stadium parking lots via the P1 entrance.

  • Ticket offices are located outside both the Patriot Place Gate and the Bank of America Gate and open at 8 a.m. General admission tickets are $13 for adults and $10 for students, children and seniors.

  • Stadium gates open at 8:30 a.m.

  • Fans of teams on the East Sideline are encouraged to enter the stadium via the Patriot Place Gate.

  • Fans of teams on the West Sideline are encouraged to enter the stadium via the Bank of America Gate.

  • Division 3A, 3 and 2A games will be carried on Comcast SportsNet.
