Fenway Park is the
closest thing that Boston has to the Paris Notre Dame. Well to Bostonians, it’s as
sacred as a Church. At 97 years old this is a central relic to creaky old
Boston. In fact, the playing field grass is so sacred that even employees of
Fenway Park can’t step on it. It’s definitely off-limits to strangers and just
meant for the players during baseball season. Why? Maybe it’s bad juju or
something.

I could almost hear the chorus screaming 'Sweet Caroline' |
Fenway Park,
America’s oldest major league ballpark is charmingly tucked into the city.
Though it’s quite easy for any traveler to stumble into the sights of Fenway
Park, getting into the games is another matter. Every single baseball game
since 2003 has sold out, good luck on scalping tickets.
But if you really
want a glimpse of Fenway from the inside, you can opt for a tour during off
season for $12. You get the whole historical tour and watch footages of old
games complete with a thick Boston accent voice over.

Fenway Park ~ Home of the Boston Red Sox! Just can''t stop myself for saying it out loud |
Boston Red Sox fans
are the extreme lot. And that Jimmy Falon movie with Drew Barrymore should get
aired on the History Channel for authenticity, when it comes to Fenway Park and
the Fan culture surrounding the games. The fans even build replica Fenway Park
hats and do some seriously fan-shit just to psyche the other team out. But
don’t leave Fenway without trying out the Sausage King, an Italian sausage food
cart parked outside Fenway’s Gate E.
