A famous watering hole, often featured in live camera shots during crucial Red Sox games. The Cask 'n Flagon is where Red Sox nation gathers to celebrate or commiserate. Recently featured in the Reebok ad that debuted during the 2007 World Series - Donny Wahlberg sat at the bar here, and Bobby Orr walked by too. Those heading to a game can save a few bucks by filling up on the Cask's straightforward bar fare and skipping the ballpark's expensive snacks. The walls are lined with high-definition TVs and photos that depict the histories of Fenway and the Sox. Locals fill the huge wraparound bar that resides in the middle of the main room while keeping an eye on all the sports news via an ever-present sports ticker. The Cask has some of the city's most aggressive bouncers--be on your best behavior.

Go to a baseball game at Fenway Park, even if you don't know what a “foul ball” is. Fenway remains the most intimate, beautiful ballpark in the league, and it would be a shame if you never saw the original in case it ends up being rebuilt. With 7 World Series titles under their belt, the Red Sox have reclaimed their spot of victory. Perhaps the most legendary baseball team of all time, the Sox had not won a World Series since 1918 until the reversal of the curse in 2004. Boston fans are the most avid in all sports, and the Red Sox had set that precedent even back in 1901 when they were called the Boston Americans. If you are lucky enough to come by a ticket these days, go to a game. It will be one of the most fun things that you will do all year.

The Red Sox Ticket Office, located at 4 Yawkey Way, Boston, MA 02215-3496, is open the following hours during the baseball season: On non-game days (excluding holidays), Monday through Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The office is open on game days Monday through Friday 10 a.m. to one hour after game time.

Home to the World Champion Boston Red Sox, Fenway Park is the oldest ballpark in the country (it dates from 1912). It is beloved by the members of Red Sox Nation, who kicked up a fuss when plans were announced earlier this century to perhaps scrap this old beauty for a newer model. The current owners have avowed that sacrilege and, instead, have worked to upgrade Fenway Park with new amenities (one example is the coveted Monster Seats, atop the Green Monster). Although the best way to experience the historic ballpark is by going to a game, we can not all be so lucky to score those tickets. Instead, you can get a full fledged tour of Fenway for just a few bucks and see where history is made. Sometimes they even let you run a lap around the bases and sit in the dugout. For more information check out Fenway Park Guided Tours where you can see Pesky's Pole, The Fisk Pole, the single red seat, and other historic Fenway favorites. America's most beloved ballpark has an atmosphere like no other stadium. The Red Sox have sold out over 400 consecutive games as of the 2008 season (the major league record breaking 456th consecutive sellout took place September 8, 2008 as the Red Sox beat Tampa Bay 3-0), so one is guaranteed a boisterous and upbeat atmosphere at any home game. Most of the learned baseball cognoscenti would agree that Fenway is the premier destination to take someone to their first major league game. In addition to the enthusiastic fanbase, the park features traditional delights like the Fenway Frank, and modern touches including legal sea food chowder. Additionally, as the park is smaller than many new, corporate backed stadiums, most of the seats are reasonably close to the playing field and afford a good view of the action.

This sports bar sits just on the edge of Fenway Park. If you can't get tickets to the game, you can watch it from the roof deck here with it's mini version of the Green Monster and feel like your as close as you can get. It's got your classic bar food menu (wings, burgers, beers) and a friendly atmosphere. A great place to watch the game for the more traditional Fenway bar experience. The crowd here is generally a bit older than at Game On.
