In all honesty, I’ve mentioned in the past that I’ve been to the stadium in a Red Sox Hat and t-shirt and I was treated just fine and on the flip side I’ve seen guys in yankees hats have beer dumped on them and hot dogs thrown at them in Fenway. It’s an embarassment to say the least that these people are rooting for the same team I am. I don’t like it when we’re all classified that way though because it isn’t fair. Us goobers from Maine don’t act anything like Bostonians but we do make up nearly a million fans of the Red Sox Nation. Then again most of us stop in Portland and watch the Sea Dogs because it’s so much cheaper

Oh you are so right. There was once a Gary Matthews Jr. quote that went something like “it’s just not the same there as any other stadium. there’s even racist quotes thrown at ballplayers all over the place.” I know its not right to stereotype, but i went to visit that area, and from my limited view, there’s no denying that a majority of the people in that area were just plain brought up without morals or integrity.

Whitey,

I am a Yankees fan so this may sound jaded.
I have been to plenty of games in both parks ,against each other and against other teams the Sox fans are simply the worst ,maybe these aren’t the life long fans but they still wear the garb so the fall into that category. They are always trying to pick fights be it verbal or physical , with anyone wearing a hat/shirt of the opposing team.
They have made Fenway so hostile that i know friends that wont bring their kids there. I would be stupid to believe the same crap doesn’t happen at Yankee Stadium but it seems to be a smaller amount of occurrences.
take it as you will, this is my opinion- Sox fans are the worst.

I have been to the cantab with my yankees hat on and nothing like this has happened, just a random act from some random assholes.

Being a yankee fan in MA sucks balls, I get bitched at at school for wearing yankees stuff.

Massholes? Drinking? Why, that can’t possibly be true! I bet they’re as “sobah” as their ruddy representative in the Senate. Oh, wait…

i wear powder blue in the spring and black in the winter. it’s classier to own more than one.

That was a classic comeback Steve!

Here’s the qualifier….is it black, or light blue?

Neither group is better, smarter, more knowledgable, or classier than the other.

i disagree. i am extremely classy. i actually sleep in a tuxedo.
