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.

I hadn't heard about this. Only noticed it in Morgana's thread about The New York Mets

It's from a few days ago - WARNING: PICTURES

This is nothing but a thumb in the eye to fans who, these days, spend a great deal of their hard-earned money to take their family to a game.

Very sad that so many people derive their self-worth by worshipping a certain sports team or athlete.

I should know. I used to be absolutely devastated when my team or my hero lost.

I work at a sports bar and I remember how customers would bitch and moan when the whole kneeling during the national anthem thing was fashionable and then immediately root for those same players 5 minutes later. Pathetic.

I was there for (unplanned) visits in 1981 - 1982

I can’t imagine that the old time legendary Red Sox players would be too happy if they saw this - outrageous

More people have to STOP GOING / STOP ATTENDING

IMHO, this is an open-air REBELLION against ALMIGHTY GOD - a very STUPID maneuver - they are TAUNTING GOD

The SOUND DOCTRINE meme ESPECIALLY applies here

Friday, June 26, 2015 was a DARK and EVIL day when
this Godless Abomination was celebrated by the
Democrat Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama

THIS is the kind of Satanic Abomination done
before Almighty God that can destroy a nation

They simply WILL NOT be happy until the Entire World
is turned into a Zombie Version of Sodom and Gomorrah.


THEY WILL NOT REPENT. THEY WILL NOT STOP.
THEY DESPISE WHAT THE LORD GOD HATH SAID


There is not anything that is not made worse,
or more weird and bizarre or more confusing
than by the homosexual / transgender agendas


Satan's LGBTQ+ false prophet DEMOCRAT Barack Hussein Obama
has done the work of his true father, that Old Serpent (John 8:44) by
sowing confusion, Godless error, and outright lies

How many attend churches yet ARE STILL deceived by this man?


Godless Reprobate Democrats will ALWAYS protect the
homosexual agenda - it was a prized feature of their
Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama in 2015


THE AMERICANS DEMOCRATS ARE DETERMINED TO DO SATAN'S WILL

They ARE working for Satan - whether they understand it or not

This is EXACTLY the kind of anti-God confusion that the Enemy likes to sow - since the days of Genesis chapter 19]

[transgender controversy]

The Democrats MUST have a direct line to
that Old Serpent called the Devil and Satan


Satan used false prophet Barack Hussein Obama to sow even more confusion upon the world
- and Obama turned the White House into an homosexual abomination before Almighty God.


Democrat Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama
is an EXCELLENT false prophet for that Old Serpent, called the Devil and Satan.


And the world just continues to fulfill Bible Prophecy - as expected

All according to Satan's plan.

Friday, June 26, 2015 was the Rainbow White House



The Days of Lot are upon the world - just as prophesied

And Sudden Destruction is prophesied for the Days of Lot

Even thus shall it be
in the Day when the
Son of Man is revealed...

Yes, like PBS, this is how they PERVERT CHILDREN - they are promoting an OLD LIE from That Old Serpent Called the Devil and Satan - children were exposed to this metastasizing cancer

Defund PBS too

I AM ENCOURAGED that people are complaining about this nonsense

Worshiping this kind of thing is how people wind up
mutilating innocent children for “TRANSGENDER”

I would have been more encouraged if the fans got up and left. That is sure as hell what l would have done and it’s the only thing that will stop this BS.

So less that 50% of queers, which are about 10% of a target audience like sports, so cater to that 5%, and defecate on the other 95%, quite the business model.
