i know the rest of the country looks on the boston sports machine in disdain right now but as a fan and being from the area one has to pinch themselves night in and night out...there is absolute magic at fenway park...the home team is never out of it as long as there's one strike left...amazing......

Enjoy it while it lasts...and it may last a while. Freakin took the twins last night,bases juiced

1 down in 8th, nothing, knew I was done then.

Many poor seats. Some right field roof box you cant see the batter. Obstructed view seats, and be prepared for morning after neck strain from a night in left field and right field grandstand. Center field bleachers have an obstructed view of the left fielder.

Best seats are behind dugouts, behind home plate and right field bleachers.

Never had the opportunity to watch from the monster seats.

Saw a few games at tropicana field and haven't found a bad seat in the place. Ted Williams hitters hall of fame is located there, if your a baseball fan it's awesome.

Some guy who knows my bad beats this season offers me insurance at big odds on the Sox when they are up 10-0. I said, "nah". LOL

Fenway is a nicehistoric ball park. I've been fortunate enough to go to alot of the old ball parks,Chicago St. Louis, Cinn.,Brooklyn, and Yankee stadium

Praising lifeleless tropicana located in sterile place ?

Yes Fenway has some bad views no doubt. But no comparison between the stadiums

To be fair havent been to Tropicana in a few years but was easily worst park I have been too. Depressing actually

I didnt run into many "baseball fans" thats for sure. Bunch of lowlifes and old dears who got lost looking for two for one dinner special

Ah yes, the charm of Fenway. Ever been to a sox/Yankees game? Talk about drunken lowlifes. Throwing cherrie bombs at Mickey Rivers. Batteries, golf balls and bottles at Reggie Jackson. Reggie played right field wearing a batting helmet. Countless drunken fights in the stands. Drunken fans trying to tip over the Yankee bus. All this in a place built for a T-Rex.
