We went to the 2004 parade and celebration in Boston. It was fantastic, but - yes - crazy, and it was a big hassle to get into town. We had no choice but to park way outside Boston and take the T into town. To be honest, we're really not familiar with the T.
It was fun, but I'm not really interested in going this year IF the Red Sox win the WS (I think they will).
Hubby wants to go... I reminded him that NESN runs the whole celebration/parade live... ;-)
If they win on Wednesday night, I think the parade will be on Thursday. It's doubtful that we can attend the celebration on a weekday anyway...
After the Marathon Bombing, no more big public gathering events for me anyway.
