Just pointing out what I observed last night. Red Sox Fans moving inside and outside Yankee Stadium wearing their bright red garb, none of them being assaulted. Just some yelling back and forth.

My husband and I have had all kinds of expletives hurled at us by drunken Yankee fans both inside Yankee Stadium, and while walking to our car in the parking garage after games. And we did *not* provoke any of these fans. My husband and I have never hurled any expletives at Yankee fans while at Fenway or anywhere else.

I don't doubt you.

Did they identify you as Red Sox fans by something that you were wearing?

Reversing the roles, I wouldn't even think of wearing Yankee stuff at a Red Sox game.

My point being there's not a dimes worth of difference between the bad behavior of the two teams' fans.

Yes, we were wearing Red Sox jerseys and hats, but we didn't provoke anybody. The last few times we went to Yankee Stadium, I wore something red, but nothing identifying myself as a Red Sox fan.

Fair enough. You're right.

I love your profile page, btw. Very nice. :-)
