Hi from Milwaukee

[WallEye]

Hi. I'm a Brewer fan by birth but the Red Sox are my AL team. Besides just being a Brewers fan, I'm a huge baseball fan and I've always wanted to come to Fenway and decided that this year is the year. I love the fanaticism of the Boston fans and it looks like one of the best atmospheres in baseball. And why not do it big? So I'm coming August 21-24 during the Yankee series. I'm looking for input on the best Fenway experience including where to sit, where to go before and after the game and anything else you might be able to share with me. I'm a member of the Brewers equivelant of this site and I know the people there know their baseball and I assume it's no different here.

 

Also, when it comes to getting tickets, what's the best strategy? Get them ahead on Stubhub or is there a place around there (a reputable broker) or something like that that would be a better choice?

 

I'd love to hear anything and everything you would be willing to share with me and I can't wait to finally see Fenway!

 

Thanks!

 

*Edit: I just took a look around the site and I have to say that I'm impressed!

As it's always repeated on here, don't go the Stubhub route. They jack the prices up big time over there.

 

I was in Boston last summer and just walked up and bought some tickets for 2 different games against the Twins. There's always people looking to sell prior to game time. One of my friends was there back in June and got a $90 face value ticket that was like 4 seats away from Pesky's Pole for $40 about 5 minutes after the game started.

Welcome to Talksox!

 

I have no advice on the ticket situation. One thing of note. Stubhub advertises here on Talksox and if you click on their link here (and buy tickets, presumably) it's beneficial to this site.

 

Have fun at Fenway.
