Mass.,

It's hard to think of a retail store as a
major
New England
tourist attraction, but the recently-opened 140,000 sq. ft.
Bass Pro Shops at Patriot Place Mall ,
Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, Mass., is just that. Much more than your
typical outdoor store, Bass Pro shops features, for starters, a 21-ft.
waterfall leading to a giant aquarium with 400 fish native to New
England, streams, caves leading under the aquarium, a bridge that spans
the first story, a two-story laser shooting arcade, a fishing shack
display, a genuine lobster boat, a 50 ft. humpback whale display, glass
elevators, a huge fireplace, a rustic cafe and an all-glass back of the
building that will reveal a six-acre lake view, most likely, ready in
the
spring of 2008. It's almost as amazing as the vast selection of
hunting,
fishing, camping and outdoor clothing merchandise at great prices! Bass
Pros Shops in Foxborough is really an outdoor enthusiast's
dream-come-true
and has the visual appeal to make it a must-see when visiting New
England
Bass Pro
Shops, One Bass Pro Dr., Foxborough, Mass. Tel. (508) 216-2000.
