We hit up the hockey double header at Fenway today. We don’t follow high school or college hockey at all, but we love Fenway and wanted to see the novelty of a hockey rink set up in the infield. It was SUPER cold, but we had a great time! They moved the game start times up so everyone could get home in time for the Pats game! (Of note, there were no Tebow fans there.) Go Pats!

No More Sox
We had playoff tickets – but it turns out the sox won’t be there. We are bummed but loved cheering on our team all season long. Additionally, we discovered a new trick. The first game of the season, we bought one of those ridiculously priced souvenir soda cups. They are huge, but there is no way that they are worth the cost. The lady selling soda reminded us they had free refills – which is kind of a joke because they are so big, you wouldn’t ever need a refill. But then she said, just bring it to the next game and then you won’t have to pay. We tried it out and they let us bring the empty cup back in to Fenway each game and we never paid for soda again for the rest of the season. We feel quite pleased with ourselves, if you can’t tell.
Also, Jeannette kept all the checked bag tags on the bag she brought to each game. It’s definitely time to take them off and wash the bag as it has been attacked by a malfunctioning ketchup squirter, sat in puddles of beer spilled by folks sitting behind us, and is full of peanut shell bits. But the collecting tags was fun while it lasted.

Red Sox Game 8 – L v Rangers – 0-10
Fiallen Red Sox Game 8
Tonight’s game was a stinker. But we had a great time nonetheless. Miller was pulled in the second!! He had an awful outing. We got to see Wakefield pitch in relief and he did great. It was already 0-10 by the time he came in, and he stopped the bleeding. The whole crowd was rooting for him. There were a few times the chant “Let’s Go Wakefield!” rang out! Youk was back after being on the DL for awhile. We always enjoy watching him play. And it turns out we there for the 700th sell out game in a row!
