With the exception of Red Sox vs. Yankees games and postseason games, there were plenty of empty seats at the Red Sox games I attended last year at Fenway Park during the regular season. The poor performance of the team in 2012 probably had a lot to do with lackluster attendance, but I also wonder how much of that was due to ticket prices. Looking at the ticket pricing for this season, I wouldn't be surprised to see the same thing happen this year even with the 2013 World Series Championship title.

Bruins game maybe? In Boston, NHL>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>every other major sport. I dun know when it was, but that would be my guess. I know the hockey playoffs started recently.. maybe some fans skipped out on the Red Sox to watch them.
