Boston Red Sox spark controversy after putting on pre-game drag show for Pride Day

Fenway Park's annual Pride Night has been heavily criticized online in the days since a group of drag queens were welcomed on the field in Boston before the Red Sox hosted the Tampa Bay Rays.

'Gross' and 'disgusting' were just two of the judgements posted on X, where many others joined in the attack.

'Be more like the @Rangers,' another added, referring to the only Major League Baseball team without a Pride Month celebration.

Several commenters questioned the logic behind MLB events aimed at including LBGTQ+ fans, arguing they're not really baseball's target audience. However, a 2021 survey by the Sociology of Sport Journal found that 30 percent of gay men and 40 percent of lesbians were passionate sports fans, while many others followed sports casually.

Boston's Pride Day differed from other MLB clubs in that the Red Sox invited fans to arrive early for a drag show on the concourse at Fenway Park.

You have the 100% correct solution - and they should never go back

Some may be season ticket holders

THIS is Major League Baseball going BUG LIGHT GAY - yes, it’s been happening for years - need to boycott, IMHO

The Godless Reprobates and their enablers are counting on
people all over the world to just be apathetic and support
this kind of nonsense

That Old Serpent Called the Devil and Satan

KNOWS that his time is short - the Lord rebuke him (Jude 9)


Sodom and Gomorrah are referenced in
the New Testament as an example for
ALL subsequent generations.

Elsewhere Jesus notes that rejecting the Gospel is even worse. WOW

2nd Peter 2:6-9
King James Version

6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;

7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the Wicked:

8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)

9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the Day of Judgment to be punished:

Matthew 10:14-16
21st Century King James Version

14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words,
when ye depart out of that house or city, Shake off the Dust of your Feet.

15 Verily I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of
Sodom and Gomorrah in the Day of Judgment than for that city.

16 “Behold, I send you forth as Sheep in the midst of Wolves.
Be ye therefore wise as Serpents and harmless as Doves.

More people have to STOP GOING / STOP ATTENDING

That should have happened a decade or more ago. It didn’t and it’s unlikely to happen no matter what trash these league push in the face of the fans. Fortunately there are many alternatives to that garbage.

I came to see a ballgame and .... what the?! This sh*t has gotten way out of control. If I want to see a drag show I’ll go to the drag bar.

“ And Mets fans got upset over their team showing a “pride” flag.”

Leave and never go back. Never watch another game. That’s all.

My dad would roll over in his grave....
He was a die-hard Red Sox fan his whole life.
As a kid, he’d take me to a home game a couple of times/year...long drive for us too.
Glad he didn’t live to see such BS from his favorite team.
Me? I wouldn’t would be caught dead in Fenway Park today....or the entire MassHole Land for that matter.....

Mets haven’t won a game since they mocked Christians and celebrated Pride night. Many of the Mets core Hispanic players are devout Christians and this celebration of neo pagan perversion has to upset them.
