We had such a great time watching the Red Sox at Fenway Park, it might be the oldest ballpark but it's certainly got the most charm. Hopefully we did most things that a local would do at Fenway, I know we couldn't do everything on our 1st visit, is there anything we missed?
As a local fan I can say this: The thing you missed out on that many locals do is get obnoxiously drunk and act like jerks. They don’t call us Massholes for nothing.
@@billcook4768 It's really not like that much anymore. It's much more family oriented now. Yes, I'm 60...I remember well those days of beer sold in the seats and lots of drunken assholes. Hell I remember when they sold the beers in the green Styrofoam cups with the saran wrap over the top.
Regrettably Fenway is one of the most expensive parks in baseball. My buddies and I do a 3 game series each year, going to different parks. All the old ballparks were fit into neighborhoods or had confined space. They all had odd dimensions. Fun Fact: Fenway Park opened the day the HMS Titanic sank.
First time I went to Fenway was 35 odd years ago when I was a kid. Most recent was September 15 of this year. Such a magical place and I absolutely love the city. New York City is an hour closer to me but I rarely ever visit because Boston is so much better.
As someone who was Born and Raised in the Boston area and still lives around there You were spot on about David Ortiz, he's single handedly one of if not the most iconic Boston Red Sox player of all time next to Babe Ruth you should look up some clips about him also he's got the infamous nickname "Big Papi".
Fun to watch! Never seen your channel before but it came up in my recommended because I'm a big Red Sox fan. I can't really laugh at what you don't understand, especially since I taught myself all the rules of the game when I was younger, but it was still amusing watching you guys try to figure it out. There's just no other kind of baseball experience like a game at Fenway Park. Glad it was a good time and a win!
If you really want to see Fenway come alive, come when they are having a winning season and are in a pennant race. Fenway is a great tourist attraction these days with a fun family atmosphere. But when the pennant is on the line, the blood gets hot and the intensity is dialed up. That place will rock!
This and your baseball game in Seattle are two of my all time favorites. A few random comments: Big Papi isn’t wasn’t just a good player, he’s pretty a much an ambassador for the whole city. There’s a series of hilarious Saturday Night Live sketches about him too. Many Americans don’t understand the nuances of the game either, but talking about “points” absolutely makes you sound like “not a baseball fan.” No video of Sweet Caroline? And finally, are you guys Liverpool FC fans? That would make seeing Fenway extra cool.
We saw our first baseball game in Toronto watching the Bluejays, amazing experience, didn’t know what was happening 😂but the atmosphere was fantastic 😊
Wow. I don't think you could get two so vastly different experiences than watching a game in Seattle and then watching a game at Fenway or Wrigley. A game at the former is like attending an NBA game with the constant visual and audio stimuli while the experience of attending a game at Fenway hasn't changed much in the last century. (Edit: It's been a few years since I've been to Fenway. It sounds like they've disappointingly added a few new sound effects.)
As a Red Sox fan for all my life (I'm 60), I can advise that if you have questions about how the game is played, the rules, or when or why....etc, at Fenway, you can usually ask anyone around you and we will give an answer that will tell you everything you need to know. We love to tell people about Fenway, and the Sox, and our history and idiosyncrasies. At one game this year, I happened to be sitting next to a guy from Portugal, who was on business in Boston, so decided to check out baseball. He knew nothing about the game, but I had a blast explaining everything to him and answering his questions. We had fun. It's cool to know that somewhere in Portugal, there is a dude with a video of me and my buddy belting out Sweet Caroline on a beautiful Fenway summer night. If it's not obvious, I love my Red Sox passionately.
We did actually end up chatting to a guy who goes all the time and was super friendly and was telling us things about the game too. Such an amazing atmosphere, we would love to return one day
If you go back to Fenway and want a great hot dog, get one from the guys selling them in the stands, the buns are steamed are it makes the whole thing much better.
Only thing I would suggest if you do more ball parks is use the seats you bought for the first few innings then go enjoy other seats(empty) or standing row only to get a different view/experience. Baseball is unique in this way where every other sports fields are very cookie cutter.
Hi Stacey and Kev. Great day at Fenway. To funny selling one of the dolls for $10. The best food is ballpark food. I definitely wouldn't pay $30+ for a lobster roll. Especially at a game. Restaurant maybe 😊 . You're right Stacey, getting pooped on was definitely good luck, nasty but good luck. Lol. Excellent idea parking a little bit away from the main garage. As always thank you for taking us along on your adventures ❤❤.
Next year or at some point doesn't matter when you guys should watch The New York Yankees, The Los Angeles Dodgers to see Shohei Ohtani the greatest ball player alive play, and The Toronto Blue Jays the only MLB team in Canada! Btw the guy in black is called the umpire lol. And also at 19:45 when the pitcher accidentally hits the batter with the ball the batter gets the base lol
They are called umpires in baseball. Runs, not points. Baseball bats come in many different weights (by ounces), and lengths (by inches). Each player goes thru many bats a game as they can shatter or splinter because of the speed the ball is being pitched (@95mph), and speed it is being hit. Stadium food is notoriously expensive.

Thank you for enjoying it me and my dad and a really great crew renovated it about 10 years ago

Such a magical place and I absolutely love the city.
New York City is an hour closer to me but I rarely ever visit because Boston is so much better.
Your baseball play by play commentary is GOLD!
🤣
Oldest in the major leagues. Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama, is two years older.
Great video as always, you were lucky it's was an action packed game, plenty of home runs
This was so fun to watch Kev and Stacey. Love how you always make the most of what you do and where you go and you're always so joyful 😁
Thanks so much and we try lol

The guy who said go to Cape Cod is spot on
I prefer new hampshire

Spooky as my first game was Orioles v Red Sox in Baltimore 2009 and now a Red Sox fan. Great vlog
Thanks so much

Thanks for explaining things in more detail, appreciate it 😁
@@OneCouplesAdventure Probably good that you didn't know, but the owners of the Red Sox also own Liverpool. Not something a Man U fan would like!
I have been to Fenway Park so many times it's just another ordinary place for me now.
Come on man. I've been going since I was old enough to walk..hundreds of games...and I still love when I go. Fenway is never boring.

Thanks so much MaryAnn, we were saving the Lobster for Maine 😁
@@OneCouplesAdventure Don't blame you for that. I would wait also. Have a great week!
I'm happy you enjoyed the experience. The New York Yankees are our bitter rivals. What team do you follow in England for football?
Hi thanks for watching, and Manchester United 😁

We'd love to watch them 😁
Its considered very good luck to be crapped on by a bird. Lol
🤣
Hi both. Can you tell me what microphone you used? Thank you 🙂
Hi they are the HolyLand Lark M2 mics 👍
70p Ikea hotdog worth $6 😂 How the other half live! Would be nice eh!

Which language are they speaking...lol
🤣
Honestly, baseball is boring to watch. Now, playing baseball/softball is the best! Warm, sunny day with your friends playing the game!
Looks like our rounders
Lol
New Hampshire is great don't listen to him
We loved New Hampshire! A beautiful state
