WHAT MAKES FENWAY PARK SPECIAL? // THE OVER 100 YEAR HISTORY OF FENWAY PARK & RED SOX DOCUMENTARY

In this All Sports History video we'll look back at how Fenway Park was built and how has become one of the most recognizable sports venues in the world.

Here's what this "Fenway Park History" video covers:

For over 100 years, Fenway Park has been one of baseball’s most iconic grounds. With its unique dimensions, and jewel box design built right into the city, it has become one of the landmark cathedrals for the sport. In today’s video we’ll take a look back at what makes this park so special and all of the history and features that have made it become so legendary. Everything from the unique Fenway Park Green Monster to Pesky’s Pole, and even outliving the attempt to tear down and replace the iconic stadium.

Fenway Park is a historic baseball stadium located in Boston, Massachusetts. It opened its doors on April 20, 1912, and is one of the oldest and most iconic ballparks in Major League Baseball. The park was built on a tight budget, with a capacity of only 35,000 seats, but it has since been expanded and undergone renovations several times. Fenway Park has been the home of the Boston Red Sox since it first opened, and it has witnessed some of the most memorable moments in baseball history, including Babe Ruth's early career, Ted Williams' 521 home runs (of which a special Fenway Park red seat was added to mark the spot of his longest), and Carlton Fisk's dramatic home run in Game 6 of the 1975 World Series. We'll also talk about the how a world series game was called off due lack of daylight in the early year's of the stadium, and the first ever Fenway Park night game in the park's history. The stadium has also hosted numerous other events, including football games, soccer matches, and the Fenway Park Winter classic. Today, the stadium is a beloved landmark of Boston and a must-see destination for sports fans around the world.

So what did you think of Fenway Park almost being torn down in the early 2000’s? And do you think there'll ever be a time when they replace Fenway? Let me know in the comments below!
