Yard Sale
I finally just directly tweeted the Red Sox asking about he Yard Sale. Here's what I found out:
It's today, for RSN and STHs.
Well I'm both, and I heard nothing about it.
They say they sent an e-mail out.
I never got it.
They say it's at 1:30 at Gate B and if you're in one of those groups, just say you are and that you didn't get an e-mail.
Uh...so basically, it's another free-for-all, where free-for-all equals anyone can come as long as they somehow figured out a way to find out when this secretive-for-some-reason sale is going on.
I work at exactly 1:30 today. Until 8:00. So I'm out--we'll see if it happens tomorrow too. But you can be in! If you just SAY you're a season ticket holder or a Red Sox Nation member. In fact, I'd guess if you get there at TWELVE thirty it will already be up and running! Who knows... The only reason I can think of why this is so hush-hush every year is maybe they don't want the memorabilia reseller types to go and get all the good stuff and ebay it within minutes.

Jere: I never got an email about the Yard Sale either. It seemed even more "unnecessarily secretive" than in the past... I did make the trip and get in though, nothing exciting. Most of the same jerseys and bats from last year, etc. Only a few current players appearing to talk: Breslow, Drake Britton, & Lavarnway. Weird that they do this big bash and no star players show up anymore... Other teams have the whole roster at these fanfest/sale/ticket events. Minimally, I expected to see Pierzynski...
