I wish I owned ACE Tickets

Thursday, March 27th, 2008

OK, not really. Because then I would be just another scum bag ticket scalper who pays BU students to stand in lines for Ticketmaster on-sales so people with less and less money in a recessionary economy have to pay double, triple, and sometimes up to 100X face value becuase all they have is a […]

The Pain of the Virtual Waiting Room

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

Today was officially a crappy day as far as my Red Sox fandom goes. I wake up super-early just to watch Rich Harden (a.k.a. Dick Hard) shut down the Red Sox. Then, I wait in virtual waiting room hell for an hour and a half before getting through only to be left with […]

JD Drew, Hero of Game 1

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008

Yes, I know JD Drew didn’t play. But seriously, give credit where credit is due. JD Drew not playing pretty much made the game. Mr. Brandon Moss, the guy who is probably hoping for a Coco Crisp trade more than anyone else right now, was the hero of today’s (or was it […]

Yes, You Can Get Red Sox Tickets

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

Everyone always asks me how it is that I manage to get tickets to go to so many Red Sox games. “I thought they were all sold out” they always ask. Well, yes, they are sold out once the game starts, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t sold out today. You […]

Land of the Rising Matsuzaka (Japan)

Monday, March 17th, 2008

It looks like the MLB, Japan, and even the Red Sox for that matter will be getting their way. Daisuke Matsuzaka will be the Red Sox opening day starter this year with Josh Beckett’s back being not good enough for the 18 hours he’d be spending on a plane to Japan. This also […]

Juiced, Pumped, Whatever. The 1995 Red Sox

Sunday, March 9th, 2008

After recently moving and searching through old Sox programs and yearbooks, I came across the 1995 Official Yearbook. It featured Jose Canseco and Mo Vaughn on the cover, looking, well, huge. Do I even need to mention steroids here?
Of course, they are not just on the cover. They was also […]

Pricey Picnics Now Available in the Fens

Thursday, March 6th, 2008

According to the Boston Globe, the Red Sox have unveiled their new third base seating section today. Its going to be called the Coca-Cola Corner and is basically a family friendly (read: not sponsored by beer) version of the right field Budweiser roof deck. Now, I struggle to get tickets just like the […]

The Red Sox and Ticket Lotteries in General

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

I have been rejected, seemingly over and over this season. I’m sure many of you can relate. I’ve been getting a lot of emails that look like this:

In case you can’t quite read it, I’ll summarize:
Dear Die Hard Red Sox Fan,
We’re sorry, but you will not be able to see a game from […]
