In response to "Keeping in mind that I've never been to Fenway Park, I've got a question..." by David

To some extent it's Lipstick on a Pig...especially, from what I've heard from the player perspective...

Posted by Mel Profit (aka Mel Profit) Apr 16 '12, 10:52

they've moved the indoor batting cages closer to the clubhouse, expanded the clubhouses, etc but it's still just rearranging the *ahem* deck chairs.

From the fan perspective it's night and day however. There are honest to god concourses, bathrooms everywhere, real food choices, new physical seats as well as new places *all over the park* to sit.

The park retained it's charm (Yankme fans used to the gaudy new Cathedral of Capitalism they call a park will call it dumpy) for Red Sox fans and upgraded the experience by many many factors.

I hate our stadium and I think Fenway is a much better place to see a game. - Krusty Apr 16, 10:57 5
- It might be akin to what happened when they tore down the Old Boston Garden... - Mel Profit Apr 16, 11:03 4
  - I hate how far the fans are from the field now. It's not nearly as loud as it used to be. - Krusty Apr 16, 11:07 3
    - I've noticed that about New Yankee and Citifield, the split upper level really swallows the sounds of the crowd. -- nm - znufrii Apr 16, 11:08 2

        I'd like to add the cushioned seats you have this season are wonderful. It's the first time I wasn't - Krusty Apr 16, 11:23

    - It's not dumpy. See. I have an opinion too! -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 16, 11:05
