Boston Red Sucks
Maybe my Boston friends can explain this one to me: how the HELL do you get tickets to a Red Sox game on a weekend without either Ebay or getting a "standing room" or single "obstructed seat" ticket?
I had been thinking it'd be a fun idea to go to Boston for their series against the Phillies in June since I've never been to Fenway, but the series is ALREADY pretty much sold out. Jesus. It sounds like if I want to go to a game at Fenway and not pay a fortune, I'll have to go to one alone, on a weekend against a sucky team, which I guess is just as well, because showing up in a Phillies jersey by myself might get me killed anyway. But still.
(huh, would showing up in a Sox t-shirt with Damon 18 on the back get me killed now too? heh.)

I've been able to buy tickets at the last minute off of craigslist - if you check the week of the game, you can usually find someone willing to sell decent seats for a reasonable amount above face...
