Boston Celtics

Boston has one of the greatest sports venue attractions, Fenway Park. Fenway is the oldest, most historic stadium in the United States that is still in use today. The stadium was built in 1912 and is home to the Boston Red Sox.  A greatly desired area of seating is known as the Green Monster as the seats are alongside the 37 foot tall green wall at left field. Right handed hitters are likely to hit near this target area. With the greatness of the Red Sox paired with the significance of the stadium, every Red Sox home game has been sold out since May 15, 2003.

The nearby suburb, Foxborough is the home location of the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium.  The “Pats,” as the team is commonly referred to, changed their name from the Boston Patriots when they moved to Foxborough.  The stadium is shared with the New England Revolution of Major League Soccer.

TD Garden is the stadium for the Boston Celtics of the NBA and the Boston Bruins of the NHL. Celtics have won seventeen championships which is more than any other NBA team. The Bruins have been in existence since 1924 and are a part of the Original Six teams (with the others being the Toronto Maple Leafs, Detroit Red Wings, New York Rangers, Montreal Canadiens, and Chicago Blackhawks).

A yearly event that is heavily attending and very popular is the Boston Marathon, the world’s oldest marathon. On Patriot’s Day in April, this 26.2 mile marathon takes place from Hopkinton to Copley Square. Another major event held annually in the city is the Head of the Charles Regatta rowing competition on the Charles River.
