Friday afternoon, my boss came through with scout seats that were given to him that he couldn't use. I was asked if I wanted to go with some of my other co-workers and I jumped at the opportunity.
Having never sat in the scout seats before, I didn't know what to expect.
Although the Sox lost, for the most part, the scout seat experience was amazing.
The view is awesome, the seats are comfortable and there is ample legroom, which is cool because I'm 6-4 and a "husky" guy.
The lounge with all the Sox memorabilia is very cool and the food is really good. I also liked the fact that waitstaff brought pops and hot chocolate to my seat during the game.
The only negative is that it seems that some of the people in the scout seats have no intention of watching the game. People got up and moved around between pitches instead of waiting for a half-inning or at least a new batter.
Then there were the two twenty-something couples seated behind me who came up with such conversational gems as "I flunked out of a bunch of colleges", "I touched Lenny Kravitz's thigh" and "Where is the smoke coming from?" as the fog was rolling in.
In all, the experience was amazing, even though the Sox lost. At one point, I asked one of my co-workers if he would ever get tired of sitting in the scout seats for 81 games and he laughed and said 'No.'
Just wanted to get some feedback from other Sox fans who normally don't get the opportunity to sit in the scout seats.
