Yuck! The concessions at Fenway Park are looking eerily similar to the performance of the Red Sox from 1919-2003. This week, the New York Times released a study of best and worst food options at many MLB stadiums across the country and the Fenway hot dogs were clearly listed in the DO NOT EAT category. While the poor concessions rating was a disappointment for Massholes worldwide, this new information just released has got to make New Englanders' stomachs quiver. Fenway Park's food stands, operated by Aramark, "flunked city health inspections on more than a dozen health and safety measurements on Red Sox opening day April 8, from storing food at unsafe temperatures to failing to clean food preparation counters," according to a front-page piece by John Drake of the BOSTON GLOBE. Violations were "significant enough to pose a risk of food poisoning for patrons, even though they had virtually the same set of problems in an examination more than a week earlier and demanded corrective action." Bottom line is if you have been avoiding the food at Fenway, keep doing so!

Pepto, Please! Fenway Park Concessions Fail City Health Inspections

Heads Up! Hawk Attacks A-Rod on School Trip at Fenway
On Thursday, Alex Rodriguez went 0-4 in a 3-2 Yankee victory over the Toronto Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium. How could he have been at Fenway Park earlier in the day? Private jet? No. The answer is he was able to morph himself into Memorial Boulevard Middle Schooler Alexa Rodriguez of Bristol, CT! During their class trip to Fenway Park, a resident red-tailed hawk swooped down from the sky with its talons extended and took off a piece of Alexa's scalp as she began to bleed from the head. The hawk was perched on a railing in the upper deck behind home plate while the group toured the stadium. Vince Jennetta, a teacher who chaperoned her class trip from Bristol, told The Boston Globe that Alexa is "a little shaken, but OK. It's a good think A-Rod brought her purse so she could wack the little sucker to get it off of her." It was later announced that Jennetta is suing little Alexa for trying to make a move on his wife!
