The Fentennial

I am so glad that I have been able to get the TV broadcasts of Red Sox games this week, which happened since they are playing the Texas Rangers in Boston.

Tonight, the Rangers announcers talked about the Fenway Open House scheduled for April 19th: fans can go all throughout the park, including into the Green Monster.  If I were in Massachusetts tomorrow, I would go!  And, it is free, although you can guess the hucksters will be out, and paid parking will be at a premium.  http://boston.redsox.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120417&content_id=28901654&vkey=pr_bos&c_id=bos

Then, Friday night, the actual 100th year celebration will occur on a day when the New York Yankees are in town.  This is only fitting and just, as the Yankee - Red Sox rivalry defines baseball rivalries. 

The announcers remarked that all the living ex-Red Sox have been invited back for the event and over 200 have accepted. (I wonder how many there are, and who they are.)  I hope I get to watch some of that.  But, now with computer access, I am sure I will be able to find some video of it somewhere.

The Fentennial is an fun, exciting event.
