So yeah, I hadn’t planned to go to the Red Sox rally, but I got this feeling that some people I know would prefer that I did, so I said ‘what the hell, you only live once’, so I went. I also figured that there would be a bunch of people in costume since it was, after all, Halloween. Well there weren’t many, but I did get a few.
As for sound and smell, run a continuous loop of ‘Tessie’, ‘Sweet Caroline, a touch of ‘Shipping Up To Boston’ and the occasional ‘Yankees Suck!’ chant through your head while almost getting a contact high from something that was recently legalized, and you’ll have a pretty good feel for the ambience.
This girl was engrossed in her phone and I thought the contrast between that lack of activity and presence and the bustling surroundings was worth a shot, but the wry smile as the religious guy passed was probably the better picture.
One of my favorites.
