if it’s marked not obstructed view, then you will have a clear view of the field unless there’s a 500 lb man in front of you.

Alright thanks. =)

so if there is an infield grandstand ticket thats is NOT marked obstructed view, i will definately a view of the entire field? Or is there still a chance that part of the field (infield or outfield) may still be blocked by a beam?

row 15 on the infield grandstand with the seats at the beginning and ends of the row are usually the ones with obstructed view. the rest in that row are fine.

obstructed view seats at Fenway aren’t all that bad at all. It’s like fc said, you’re not able to see one part of the field. i’ve sat there before and didn’t miss a thing.

What do the red sox consider as obstructed view? If only homeplate is obstructed? Or for example, if part of left field is blocked by a pole, would that also considered obstructed view?

Oh, you asked about NOT obstructed view? Then, what I said, NOT. And I don’t understand the question.

Obstructed view means you will be sitting behind a column that blocks some area of the field. Totally correctible (is that a word?) with neck stretching and other minor bodily contortions.

HA! That’s right Bethie…it does translate as “sucks to be them,” doesn’t it?

Lindsay — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 03:11:08 +0000

Question- do any of you know what the red sox consider obstructed view? For example, if a ticket is not marked obstructed view, does that mean you will have a full view of the entire field? Or do they just consider it no obstructed as long as you can see homeplate? Basically i’m looking at some infield grandstand seats, and they are 15th row not marked obstructed view…Thanks to anyone that can help. =P

Yeah, it was a good try, fc…

That sucked but the rally, such as it was, was awesome.
So thanks Ian, but no need to alert the authorities.

Been fun tonight guys.

I’ll stock up the liquor cabinet and fridge for tomorrow, just in case we need it. :)

Well shit.

Impressive surge in the 9th though. Again, I’ll drink to that.

Now, memo to the Red Sox….

BRING THE BATS TOMORROW. Not just in the 9th.

Please and Thank you!
