The first time I saw it in person - walking in the shadows past the Jimmy Fund boxes, up the ramp, seeing the sun on the grass and the Green Monster - was as rich a baseball experience as I've ever had.
We did the tour of Fenway and had a few cool ones in the bar within the Green Monster in left center. I HATE the American League but loved the park. Great place, I hope it stays.
But seriously, I'm not even much of a fan of baseball, but there is something so perfect, so elegant and so lovely about the field and structure that I was overcome the first time, and every other time that I have been there. Watching a game there is like nothing else.
