Bro just take some weed gummies before going in you’ll be fine. You’re not gonna wanna be drinking a lot in the crowd the bathroom lines will be absolutely insane and annoying once you break the seal. It also costs a stupid amount of money to drink there + the tailgating will be incredibly sad

So flippant. If you shut down a train for 5 yrs, people just don’t keep doing the same thing until it reopens. You’ll destroy countless businesses and communities, perhaps permanently. People will move, and change their behavior to not need the train. So when the train comes back, it’s a different world.

They don’t post every concert early, just the big obvious ones. Most of these rides get organized a few weeks out. Pretty sure there’s at least a couple busses leaving Boston to every show at xfinity so you should be good.

And yes, lol @ Brett Michaels. The need to get sloppy is now clear.

My oldest started last year because his cousin plays. Not on track to play in college (unlike his cousin, who’s father played on scholarship) as it’s not his preferred sport and he started late. My middle child is a girl and there is no girls league at her age in our town, and she would rather play boys lacrosse anyway. My youngest just turned 4 and loves showing off to the “big kids” that he can play. All 3 play rugby (little one will start this year) and that’s their preferred sport.

Also pay your parking ticket. I forgot about one when I was in college and 10 years later, I couldn't renew my license bc of it. I had to drive all the way back to the city where I got it and pay it in person. It was a little inconvenient to say the least.

I would remove the witch museum from the list. It's really not good. Salem has some cute shops. And an ok museum: Peabody Essex. I wouldn't recommend Salem for international visitors though.

I highly recommend the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. She was an eccentric collector. And her house was made into one of the best private museums I've ever seen. She had a lot of gay friends, actors, notable occultists. So her collection reflects that. I would have loved to have met her.

The Egyptian stuff is amazing. And a beautiful central garden. And it's the site of the most famous art heist in history. So you'll notice some blank spots on the walls. Those were all stolen. A mystery that remains unsolved.

Stupid. Completely void of finesse. Putting an old ticket on the windshield is asking to be re-ticketed and ups the risk of being towed. Saving a few parking dollars is hardly worth the price you'll have to cough up to pay all outstanding tickets, towing, and storage fees to retrieve an impounded car once you pay a taxi or Uber to dump you at the impound lot.
