"One thing led to another. There's a sense of entitlement that these players think they can do whatever they want, and that was the case. The owner acknowledged the incident occurred but blamed the Patriots players for allowing the situation to escalate beyond control during the after-hours gathering."
"Officers, responding to a noise complaint, wrote in the report that music could be heard from outside on the sidewalk. Once inside, police found about 30 people and wrote that the odor of tobacco and marijuana was very strong, along with multiple hookahs and bottles of liquor."
"Police found at least six large hookahs, at least three nude or partially nude women, $1 bills scattered on the floor, and multiple bottles of liquor. An unidentified male employee stated multiple times that there was a private party downstairs and that it was all Patriots players."
Estella's, a downtown Boston restaurant, held an after-hours gathering on January 27 that violated Massachusetts liquor laws. Police responded to a noise complaint just before 2:30 a.m. and found approximately 30 people inside, including Patriots players, along with hookahs, partially nude women, scattered cash, and multiple liquor bottles. The restaurant owner acknowledged responsibility but attributed the incident to the players' sense of entitlement. A manager allegedly allowed players and their entourage through a side door after they decided to eat at the restaurant before heading to the owner's Milton home. The violation hearing before the Boston Licensing Board examined whether the restaurant's all-alcohol liquor license should be revoked.
