This past Saturday, the Boston Red Sox returned home to play their first game at Fenway Park after last week's Boston Marathon bombings. And, my wife and I were there to witness an epic tribute on the field. The Public Address announcer introduced and paid tribute to first responders, Boston Marathon volunteers, local heroes who saved lives, members of police agencies and the military and brought them on the field for a very emotional moment. All those public officials that we saw on TV last week with news updates...the Boston Chief of Police, Colonel Tim Alben, head of the Massachusetts State Police, the FBI agent heading the case, and Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick took to the field for a resounding tearful standing ovation.

On this day, April 20, 1912 Fenway Park opened, and the rest is history.

Please Yankee fans don't blame me, my wife made me do it. She was brought up just outside of Boston and told me early on in our relationship that I had better become a Red Sox fan "If I knew what was good for me" or something like that. So, Yankee fan, here is a glimpse of what you would encounter if you ever ventured into that cursed land called "The Red Sox Nation".

Sorry Yankee fans but if there was ever a ballpark that deserved a standing "O" it is Fenway Park, home to the Boston Red Sox. The iconic stadium opened on April 20th, 1912 and despite a number of renovations over the years it remains baseball's most intimate and fan friendly venue. If you've never had a chance to visit Fenway or, Yankee fans, if you are allergic to anything Red Sox why not take a tour.
