Fenway Park, The Tour






OK, here is the inside of the oldest stadium in Major League Baseball. Opened in April 1912, not long after the Titanic sunk, it still stands. And this is Steve, our tour guide. Steve kept it interesting (think 'the trainer' in Rocky) Telling stories of old and new, the myths and the legends. Unfortunately there was a home game that evening so we didn't get to see a whole lot of the more personal places, like the dugout or clubhouse. But we stood in the new seats in right field, sat in the seats on top of the Green Monsta (remember... no R, you're in Boston) and then to the oldest seats in baseball. Told us of the retired numbers and the living legends that once graced this, the Holy Grail of Red Sox Nation. Steve even has the rings to prove it.

p.s. I wore an Orioles shirt for the tour. Let's Go O's!
