I got a really neat call on October 19, from Trish at RemDawg Nation, saying that IF there was a Game 7 of the ALCS, that I'd won two tickets to go and see it.  IF somehow, there was NOT a Game 7, then I'd be receiving a pair of tickets to Opening Day at Fenway Park in 2008.  Oh, yeah, and either way, dinner for two at Bertucci's in Kenmore Square was included.  I was speechless for a moment, and then I nearly screamed.  Luckily for Trish, I managed to merely squeal in delight!  Long story short, I took my friend Marguerite from church, and here is what it looked like:

Ok, so I forgot to take out the camera BEFORE we ate, but it was obviously yummy!

Our seats were in the Grandstand, Section 16, Row 13, Seats 9 and 10.  This was the view.  The Dropkick Murphys played the National Anthem. "Tessie", and "Shipping Up to Boston", and had some Irish Step dancers to liven up the show (as if any "livening" was needed!).  See the performances here.

Are more words needed?
