Was there for 2 games , the summer of 1997. Red Sox were playing against Seattle Mariners. My wife and 2 yrs.old daughter. A dream come true for this Red Sox fan. To be in same stadium where the Bambino and the Kid from San Diego played was real. I'll never forget the experience 🙂
Awesome video, great history, love it... Three friends and I sat front row green monster seats in 2003 the first year of them, it was awesome, 300 bucks a seat but WELL WORTH IT, it was against Oakland...
I agree...and I'm a Yankee fan. Visited Fenway long ago...loved it. As I watched the games I kept saying to myself who had played there... Speaker...Ruth...Ted...and Yaz...who was there!
My sisters took Mom (age 82...favorite player Ted Williams, still yells at the TV when they're losing) on this tour for her birthday....she said it's DEFINITELY worth seeing if you are ever in Boston!!! I've gone to many games at Fenway myself, but actually learned a lot watching this. One of the most striking things: the camera doesn't lie about how close you are to the action...it truly is one of the most "intimate" parks in the Majors. A very special place. This video makes me homesick!!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video and I hope to see more of them. The man narrating this video should host a sports-talk show. He'd be brilliant at it. Since 1994 when I was at my first Red Sox vs Yankees game, I have witnessed many games at Fenway Park. It's my hope they NEVER tear that place down! What a ballpark! I just wish he would have worked in some mention of the Patriots playing at Fenway during the 1960's, back when the American Football League was building toward it's ultimate pinnacle of success and eventual merger with the NFL. Would have loved to see the Patriots play NFL teams there back in the day. Long Live the AFL!!!
Nice video of the tour. I went with my buddy this year but the tour was much shorter because they were doing a lot of work getting ready for the 100th anniversary. It was also 85 degrees so there was a lot of people that day. I'll have to do it again. Go Sox!
Been lucky enough to go to Fenway 5 times since meeting one of my best mates in 1991 who is from Boston while he was here in Sydney it's a orsome experience even if your not a huge baseball fan like a lot of us here in Sydney with cricket and rugby league been our big sports I suppose but I would totally recommend it if your ever in the great city of Boston.
Thanks Dennis. I lived on Park Dr for almost 20 years. That's about three blocks from Fenway Park. I lost interest in baseball during the strike of 1981 and didn't "find" baseball until I lived right next to the 1986 World Series. The problem I faced was that if I needed to do something in Kenmore Square before the game it was like spawning upstream just to get back to my apartment. I could see the lights and hear the crowd and announcer from my kitchen window. At the time you could just walk into the ball park after the third or fourth inning as the ticket takers left for the night. At the time you could always find a good seat for the price of just walking in. I doubt that's the case now. Anyways, Fenway is my favorite place even with the narrow seats.
Drew...back in the late 60s you could buy a General Admission ticket to Yankee Stadium for $1-2. Sit anywhere that wasn't reserved. The Yanks sucked out loud, so there were always tons of great seats!
Ive been there. I love Fenway and Im a Phillies fan. That place is a like a museum of a lot of history. Not bad for a 100 year old stadium better than the new Skankee Stadium.
Me and my girlfriend (from Seattle,Wa), went to Fenway,first game after the all star break July 19th 2013 "RedSox vs Yankees". Hot and humid as hell!!!! But made the best of it, did the duck tour, boston museum of fine arts (two days),the original "Cheers" for lunch, had lobster,great clam chowder. Was only in boston for 5 days but had a blast despite the heat and humidity. Going back in the near future, hopefully the weather will be kind to enjoy more......GO SOX!!!!!
do they show actuall game scenes in real time (like what you see on tv) on those big boards, or is just for the scoring and stats? i've never been to a baseball match as a european.
The only thing that bothers me is that Ruth's trade did no finance No No Nanette (which didn't premier until 1925), rather, it financed My Lady Friends (1919). Not sure why they changed it.
Could be I just got a bad impression, but as much as this place is a baseball cathedral, watching a game there seems about as comfortable as sitting on a bed of nails.
He said after the sale of Ruth and others the Sox played before a mostly empty ballpark ''every night,'' for 15 years. Wrong. They played only day games then. I'm surprised that liberal Boston pays tribute to Tom Yawkey. The Sox were the last major league baseball team to hire a black player, almost a decade after the Dodgers signed Jackie Robinson.
Fenway seems like a *horrible* place to watch a ball game, based on my understanding of this tour. The things that stood out the most to me were the 16-inch-wide seats, and the walk-in scoreboard that cooks the operators alive in the summer, which has only one way in and out, and no running water. I did find the history of the park intriguing, however. It's a veritable cathedral to the great American pastime, and that kind of mystique can't be replicated, which is why it's unfortunate the old Yankee Stadium had to be torn down.
The owners would love nothing more than to build a shiny new place, like teams do, but they're stuck in this neighborhood, & the fans would whine like babies if they move....but they will, eventually.

I remember going to Fenway park a few years ago, such a beautiful ballpark and the city was phenomenal!
Phenomenal video! I'm a Mariner's fan, but visiting Fenway is definitely on my bucket list!
Wrigley Field as well :D
Brandon Johnson me too.
Just saw a game there Sunday (my third game there) I love it I'm also a big sox fan
Mr. Celluci as your tour guide, you guys got lucky he is hilarious!
I love Fenway Park, is old but is an authentic baseball park.
Please, never destroy it. A demolition is a crime like old Yankee Stadium.
I agree...and I'm a Yankee fan.

fito65 - and like tiger stadium

Thanks for the great tour! Red Sox fan far far away from Fenway.
Wow 😳😳😳 penway Park it's so nice 👍👍👍
Great Tour! Awesome!

Nice piece. The next time I visit my daughter, I will have to include the Fenway Tour.
Here we are 110 years later and strong
Great video..thanks!!!

Big raps to the tour guide...your a star
Ive been there. I love Fenway and Im a Phillies fan. That place is a like a museum of a lot of history. Not bad for a 100 year old stadium better than the new Skankee Stadium.

class to the max buddy
Yes. I am here because of Fallout 4 :\
Gamer32Life me too XD
My next visit to Fenway need photograph Ted Williams famous Red seat.
do they show actuall game scenes in real time (like what you see on tv) on those big
boards, or is just for the scoring and stats? i've never been to a baseball match as a european.
This reminds me of the Duff Brewery tour I went on.
love it
The red seat is astonishing
Wow a little "Oh Canada", in there as well, wasn't expecting that, Had to of been playing Jays that night.
red sox for life
Very good presentation. next time tell us about the Bleachers Bar
The tour guide was my sisters math teacher and my friend
"don't tell anyone as I yell very loud what I secretly did" lol
the great green jewel of the commonwealth anyone?
Bethesda is secretly a huge fan of the red sox...
Sitting about 5 rows behind the famous red seat. Maybe, if history is made and I'm lucky, I'll get a homer! I'm bringing my glove just in case.
are the oak seats available?
To Nick Ortiz-Most definitely .
The only thing that bothers me is that Ruth's trade did no finance No No Nanette (which didn't premier until 1925), rather, it financed My Lady Friends (1919). Not sure why they changed it.
Ah the Green wall, needs more green paint :)
I wish I had a tour
I grew up a Fenway but never did the tour...
Oh no im sitting in those blue seats next wednesday :P
FALLOUT 4 :D
The great green jewel of the commonwealth where Travis at?
11:27 I’m gonna snitch lol
man i miss fenway and boston
GO RED SOX
O Canada? Were the Blue Jays the visiting that night?
Could be I just got a bad impression, but as much as this place is a baseball cathedral, watching a game there seems about as comfortable as sitting on a bed of nails.
Diamond City
They had the most ws wins in 1919 now the al yankees(27) and nl cards(11) have the most
im a Cincinnati reds fan but i like the redsox, reds are going thru the bad history now.
Unlike Yankee Stadium, THIS HOUSE WILL NEVER, EVER BE TORN DOWN!
Hopefully...
*gets torn down* ... damn it
SOME TIME GOD DISTROYING IT ON ONE DAY
Funny that you should say that because they are owned by the same company.
Bruh at 8:28 he's attacking Toronto
Why did ball parks go from favoring the batter to favoring the pitcher? Deep right is seriously just 302 feet.
+GameAddict51 no it isnt lol. The foul pole is 302, but right field is 380 and the triangle is in right center is 420.
+Nate Zeller I don't remember posting this.
0:32 we never won in 2011
He said after the sale of Ruth and others the Sox played before a mostly empty ballpark ''every night,'' for 15 years. Wrong. They played only day games then.

Covidien take the i, E and N off on the the green monster it spelled COVID
Since when did zach galifianakis start taking tours of fenway park!!!
The interior of Fenway Park is painted green while the exterior is made of bricks.
Fenway seems like a *horrible* place to watch a ball game, based on my understanding of this tour. The things that stood out the most to me were the 16-inch-wide seats, and the walk-in scoreboard that cooks the operators alive in the summer, which has only one way in and out, and no running water.

Would I get alot of shit thrown at me and alot of smack talk if I went there to watch a game next summer and I was rooting for the other team? Lol
The owners would love nothing more than to build a shiny new place, like teams do, but they're stuck in this neighborhood, & the fans would whine like babies if they move....but they will, eventually.
I read "covidien" wtf
You would be completely fine if you disregard getting shanked.
Wait just one second. The Red Sox own a colour????? Anyone else see this massive ego purchase??????
who's we. is there a turd in your pocket.
Toy ballpark. Yankee Stadium could eat this old little place.
That's why the Yankees tore down their old stadium, for the joke of a stadium
I’m Boston- born, and his Jeter story still made me cringe. I despise tour guide ‘cute’.
So much advertising, it cheapens everything :/
Poop
it is a dump.
