If so, thoughts on experience.

I haven't. But I'm sure a lot of guys from south Louisiana have been there post-2004.

For sure. That was when they were founded, right?

I have once. It is pretty cool, but only do this if you have been to other games at Fenway. You do not get the same atmosphere. It is a similar feeling to sitting in a suite at a football game.
If you have already experienced Fenway, then go for it. If not, get lower level seats between the dugouts and enjoy the atmosphere.

I have been to over 15 games at Fenway, and prefer to sit elsewhere.

Appreciate it. Haven't been to Fenway before, but also not sure when I might make it back. Thanks for advice.

The Budweiser seats in the RF corner are badass. Sat there once.

Also sat behind the plate.

I have and at first it was a little scary. Second time better. Both times really cool though. It almost felt like we were outside the park at first.

I have sat pretty much anywhere you can name in Fenway. Monster seats, grandstand, field box, suite, bleachers. I second the vote on the right-field roof deck, it's fun up there, but for hard-core baseball it's a little difficult, I think, to follow balls and strikes from that distance.

There is a long-standing sellout streak at Fenway in progress, but it is a BS PR maneuver where they partner with Ace Ticket and also give away a lot of tickets in order to preserve that streak. In reality the market for tickets is pretty soft. So you would spend a good bit of money for the novelty of sitting on top of the monster when for almost nothing you could have technically better seats. For instance tonight I'm going to the first game of the Twins series with a $12. 95 ticket from stubhub that's $40 or $50 face value. Unless sitting on the monster is a bucket list type of thing, I would put that money elsewhere.

The Twins...in 78 or 79, I sat in dead center and was 3 seats away from a Lynn home run ball...he hit two homers and a double and the Sox beat the twins 12-1. Yaz, Lynn and Fisk all homered in the first inning too...awesome games. Fenway is awesome.

Took the tour and have been up there. Seem cool on TV but I would recommend seats along the baselines.

Went to my first game at Fenway a month ago and sat in the right field seats. Had a great time. Best baseball stadium that I've been to....
