Father's Day at Fenway

Some of my earliest Sox memories involve going to Fenway Park with my Dad. I probably thought the Green Monster was an actual monster back then! Since then, my family has had the good fortune to have a share of season tickets from my dad's company behind home plate. It's only a few games per year, but it is so much fun. Espcially now, since they added cup holders and padded seats :)

I love the fact that the Red Sox are in their ninth year of hosting a Father's Day at Fenway event. I have never been but would love to go at some point. They also do this for Mother's Day. The Red Sox do a good job of taking advantage of outside factors influencing how they run their programming - holidays, commemorative occasions, and even factoring in other hometown teams - the game time tonight is moved up to 6pm so fans can watch the Celtics!! Not to mention bringing in hockey games and concerts to generate revenue for them. In addition, July is "Family Month" at Fenway, and a wide array of activities for young Red Sox nation will be offered. I will need to keep this Father's Day at Fenway in mind for next year; this Sunday I have a bachelorette brunch to get to and then dinner with my dad, but I will check to see how it turned out. A mental note: make sure to take my kids to Fenway when the time comes. Now there IS an actual green monster, too :)
