The Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins and New England Patriots fill literally every season with games and fill many sports bars and clubs with their devoted followers. Bostonians consider the city a sports community and these teams score big with fans. Just like Boston itself, each team has a history, and sports bars are the ideal place to celebrate that while meeting new acquaintances.
Sports bars are the next best thing for fans who couldn t get access to or afford a ticket.
It s the ideal spot in which to share the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. A lot of the sports bars are going upscale, collecting memorabilia and serving New England s famous seafood and the classier of the mixed drinks, but you ll always find fans favorite pub fare as well. There aren t enough sports bars in Boston to rival the more common Irish pubs, but there are enough to hold the next wave of fans. These are the grand slams of the sports scene, where the winning streak continues. In this prime location for nearly 30 years, it seems to be a tradition, especially with baseball fans on game day.
