That's OK. The Red Sox can crash and burn. Maybe one of these days they will get ownership with a clue and a new ballpark as well. Fenway might look good on postcards but it sucks to actually sit in the stands there. Especially after you pay $30 to park your car and pay $55 for a tiny seat behind a pole.

At least we have the Patriots. Training camp opens in July!

I love Fenway Park dearly... I'd be heartsick if it were to be torn down or left to rot in favor of a "bigger, better stadium". My husband and I go to many games at Fenway each season... usually we get seats in the bleachers (about $12 or $23), grandstand ($27) or the new roof deck ($45). If we (rarely) find ourselves in a "less-than-desirable" seat, we move around the park, and almost always end up finding a couple of good empty seats elsewhere. Several times we've been very lucky and ended up behind home plate after paying only 12 bucks each for bleacher seats. Granted, this doesn't happen during games when the Sox are playing the Yankees.

$30 for parking?! We usually park at the Prudential Center or at another lot we know of a couple of blocks from Fenway, located in sort of a back alley. We've never paid a dime over $15 to park for a game.

There's no place for them to build in Boston. The locals won't play ball, the city officials are ball breakers and the land and development costs are out of this world/
