'A Drinking Town with a Baseball Problem'
Just a couple notes on the first RED SOX VICTORY IN THE WORLD SERIES since 1918! (Did they even have radio in 1918? And how did anybody know anything about baseball without radio?)
In the street celebration a few minutes after midnight, a cute, random girl kissed me. It was like the end of World War II.
How superstitious is Red Sox Nation? Everyone in the bar cheered the Lunar Eclipse when Fox showed it on TV. (I think that was the 6th inning). As it was, the Eclipse began right about the time of the first pitch, was total in the late innings and for the last out at 11:40pm, and then the moon started emerging from the earth's shadow a few minutes after midnight. (This meant that the skies brightened as the celebrations progressed to Kenmore Square).
In this morning's happy hangover, I am kinda thankful that baseball season is over; rooting for the Red Sox was starting to put a dent my wallet.
