The four words that a Boston sports fanatic loves to hear. “Cue the duckboats!” A week ago the Boston Red Sox won the 2018 World Series. Obviously you know this because you don’t live under a rock, but what you may not know is that the victory parade in Boston was on Wednesday of last week. 
The 2018 World Series victory celebration was held on Boylston street and surrounding locations of Fenway Park. It was electric. It was amazing. It was awesome. It was incredible. It was epic. It was a once in a lifetime experience and guess who was able to live in that glorious moment? That’s right, ya boy was on Landsdowne street, right outside of Fenway. Like the die hard fan I am, I made the 7 hour drive up to Beantown from Baltimore, MD. Instead of watching the historic celebration from my classroom or dorm room, I decided to take the moment in for myself.
After making the trek up, I saw the best team ever hoist the greatest trophy in all of sports up to the Boston faithful as we watched players scream to the top of their lungs, video the experience for themselves, get absolutely trashed on a duckboat and raise that shiny gold metal thing for all to see. I knew that this was a once in a lifetime experience and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to watch the 2018 Red Sox celebrate their fourth World Series title in just this century and their 9th all time. I couldn’t miss watching drunk college kids climb on top of buildings, gas stations, billboards and office buildings. I couldn’t miss being in the crowd as 1.5 million people chanted “Yankees Suck.” Is this mature us Bostonians? No. Will us Massholes ever deny the opportunity to shove it up New York’s ass? Absolutely not. 
The thing that I did not like however, was that the World Series trophy was damaged during a beer throwing match between some of the players and fans. Now, what we do know is that a fan was arrested during this encounter but in what I think was just “fun and games” may not turn out to be good for the Sox. Just like the 86 year “curse of the bambino,” we know that the baseball gods do not like it when you mess with their shit, nonetheless break it. So while I am enjoying this parade and this high that I have off of the Red Sox, I am now on edge until we win this thing again because it would be a shame if this is how another World Series drought occurs. Anyway, if it did I can now die in peace knowing that I got to celebrate with the best team ever.
On October 29th, 2018 the Red Sox won the 2018 World Series. On October 31st, 2018 the Red Sox celebrated in the streets in Boston on what is the best baseball team this century. This was Boston’s 37th championship parade, ever. THIRTY-SEVEN!!! Does Boston have a parade problem? You tell me. I’m not sure when Boston will be able to celebrate another world championship but I can tell you one thing… If I have to wait more than 365 days for the next one, i’m going to be livid. It’s ridiculous that Boston made us wait just just over 200 days for the last one. Ridiculous.
I wish each and everyone of you could’ve experienced this incredible moment, like no other with me but sadly I can’t fit you all into my undersized car. Maybe next time we can get a megabus and wreak havoc amongst the next Boston championship parade. Should be coming up soon. Below is a recap of the wonderful festivities.
One things for sure… the 2018 Boston Red Sox are the best team ever, that’s simply a fact! Thanks for reading and don’t forget to follow me on social media to see more pics and videos from the parade. Instagram and Twitter– @jcmoore19.
