Fenway Park is the home of the Red Sox baseball team in Boston, MA. It is an icon in the world of sports and a model of how to build a stadium. This year is the 100 year anniversary and we stood in line with grandfathers, dads, and sons to honor the memory of past games and heroes. The owners opened the gates and let the fans in and they came by the hundreds. All week they trooped by the green Monster Board and touched the wood and peeked behind the scenes. Current and former players were there to sign balls and autograph books and to eat the game food even if a game was not being played. I hope that this symbol of Americana continues to stand and is not replaced because there is not enough luxury in the players dug out or box seats for the privileged fans.
