Reply to comment by jtet93 in Which section at Fenway would you recommend a first time Red Sox visitor? by Safari87
This one time I saw A-Rod leaving a hotel. So I yell "A-Rod you fucking suck!" He turned around and was all pissed off. He started towards me and i Kept yelling. Then all of a sudden Jeter grabs and stops him. He still looked pissed off. I think I broke him that day. Cause after that he started hitting the roids even harder than usual, and then got busted.

I mean… unethical pro tip: after like the third inning you can just sit wherever you want tbh, as long as it’s not a super sold out game like a Yankees game or something. I have a good friend who can get me in the back door of Fenway with no ticket, and I always sit pretty close to the field and no one bats an eye.
So my advice is to get some cheaper seats and then just move up. Of course if someone comes and says you’re in their seats, apologize and move right away. And don’t call too much attention to yourself.

Section 42 behind the visitor’s bullpen. Sun in the afternoon, the red seat, a revamped concession area on top (there used to be nothing), cheaper seats, chance for a HR ball, easy exit out Van Ness.

Depending on how many tickets you need there are many options for less than $125 available on the secondary market right now. I would strongly suggest sitting in the pavilion boxes in row C or D. They have excellent views of the whole field and you will be covered in the event of rain unless you pick the higher number pavilion boxes. I typically use SeatGeek to browse and buy tickets and have never had an issue.

If you can afford pavilion on the 1b side, that's a great view - very photogenic. However, it's high up.
Any first base side grandstand is good (except a few where a pole blocks the view); loge even better because you are in front of poles. Field boxes are amazing, though hard to get without going through a secondary market.
If you need to save a few $$$, I love section 32/33 because it's a quick in and out and the Monster is touchable from that section. Fewer poles over there, too.

Going to be in your town for the first time in a couple weeks. Any suggestions for cool shit to do from locals? Any good cigar lounges?

I like the pavilion boxes. Sometimes you can even get one that gives you a view along the base lines for that price. You are close to food options, close to bathrooms not at all cramped and you’re sheltered if it rains. If you get the last row, they have bar stool type seats with a table to set your beers on.

If you don’t mind being a bit further away from home plate, the right field boxes (the one I went to was 94) were a pretty decent deal, I was really close to the field, you get a great view of the rest of the stadium, the view of home plate wasn’t great but if you go there mostly to enjoy the stadium atmosphere they are better seats than the Grandstand ones, which are really tucked under the second deck and spoils the view a little bit in my opinion. Also, if you find a ticket that is significantly cheaper than the ones around it, it’s probably behind a pole

Views aside, keep in mind that the grandstand sections have no cupholders, uncomfortable seats, and limited leg room. If you are above-average in height OR weight, they will likely be painful to sit in for the length of a ball game

The official Red Sox website has an interactive seating chart. Use this before you buy, as certain grandstand sections have obstructed views due to poles that support the upper deck. Nothing worse than getting tickets and finding out you can’t see home plate.

My neighbors were up celebrating paddy's day loudly until 3am. I hope they enjoyed my courtesy press of their doorbell when I went out for my run at 6am.

No. Sadly, I never lived in Florida Unfortunately I can’t. Am stuck here. Would just settle for Winters being a bit milder and less windy.

Stay away from grandstand seats if you’re running the next day. Very uncomfy
