Bo Sox game


Parking at the Prudential Center: $15
Fenway Frank: $4.50
Bud Light: $7.50
Experiencing Fenway for the first time: Priceless

Yesterday, I went to my first Bo Sox game since being up here in Mass. The Red Sox played the Los Angeles Angels, which could be a potential post-season match up, so not only was it my first experience at Fenway, but it was also a great baseball game. Unfortunately, the Bo Sox lost 6-4, but it was close the whole game, and they had a chance to win it in the 9th. The atmosphere at Fenway is unlike anything I've experienced before. The tradition of the Stadium. The passion of Red Sox nation. I was just soaking it all in last night. The highlight of the night was definitely Big Papi going yard to tie the game. And, Manny threw out a guy trying to score from second. Baseball's value definitely rises when you are at the park, more than merely watching it on TV, but this is especially true of Fenway because the atmosphere is so amazing. So, my recommendation is not to graduate GCTS or visit Boston without seeing the Red Sox play!
