Hi Lynne,

Those are nice seats! You'll like the view from there and there are no obstructions of the infield. Only very minor outfield obstructions. The row height increase is Medium which means that your son will have an easy time seeing over heads in the row before you. You may have a more difficult time since you are shorter.

Hi Linda,

Stubhub generally does not provide you with the actual seat number. Somewhere on the site there is an explanation of why this is the case. The seats should be together.

Just bought 2 tickets: Infield Grandstand 30, row 15, seats 15 and 16 for myself (5'2and my son who is 5'8). Did I make a good choice?

I am looking at Loge box tickets from stubhub box 113 rowe jj. However, seller isn't providing the seat numbers. Might that mean they are likely not seated together? What a great site! Thank you.

Rob,

You'll need to be there at least 1/2 hour before the game to secure a good spot. Pavilion Club 1 or 3 would be best for foul balls in my opinion. Enjoy the game.

Frank,
I have 1st Base Pavillion SRO tickets for tomorrow's game. I'm taking the T in...what time should I shoot to be at the park for to get a good spot? Also behind which sections in the pavillion will I get the best views? Does anyone have any pics from pavillion SRO??? Thanks..love the site Frank!

Bill,

Those seats are incredible. No obstructions at all. There's one row in front of you and then there's a handicap seating row. You will not have any problems at all.

Frank

Just wondering how field box section 9 row B is. Any obstructions at all?

Diana,

Parking can be tough and expensive around Fenway Park.

One good option is to take the Green Line into Kenmore Station and then it's a short walk over to the stadium.

I've had some good luck with the Boston University lot on 766 Commonwealth Ave which cost $15. It's a healthy walk of about 1/2 mile. Depends on the kids and if they like to walk. I'm sure that their are other options that people have found. Maybe they can reply here. The closer you get the more expensive it gets.

Frank

August 5th, 2010 at 6:21 PM

Diana says:

Frank:
Thanks so much for the very helpful info, especially about bringing something for the kids to sit on to raise their level of view!! Awesome info. Any thoughts about parking? I know there a lot of options. What might be the best in terms of kid-friendly waiting/walking, etc.

August 5th, 2010 at 3:08 PM

Precise Seating says:

Diana,

I think the tour is great, especially since the cost is low. They will take you through the press box and other parts of the stadium (probably Green Monster but not always). The boys will definitely enjoy it.

You can look up the exact seats on our site for full details. I checked the seats and they are free of any major obstructions. You'll have a minor pole obstruction for the outfield but its nothing to worry about. The row height increase is labeled Medium which means that your boys may have some difficulty seeing over heads considering that they are 5 and 7 years old. You might want to bring something inflatable to raise them up a few inches.

The seats in general are nice and you'll be close enough to really enjoy the game.

Frank

Diana says:

Coming to Fenway for the 1st time (Sunday 1:30 game) with my 2 sons (5 and 7 years old). Seats are sxn 30, row 13, seats 11,12,13,14.
We will be getting a Fenway Park tour at 11 am before the game. Kids are HUGE fans and are so excited. I know the seats are quite far back. Any info on the seats or tour would be so appreciated!
Thanks
Diana

August 5th, 2010 at 12:12 PM

Precise Seating says:

Have a look at the comments below regarding Pavilion Box Standing room. That might be a good option for you.

Bleacher section 41 and 42 are nice but you will be a fair distance from
the infield. The seats closer to the field will help you to feel more a
part of the game. They are also directly behind the bullpen areas so it's
always fun to see them warming up.

Grandstand section 7 or 8 would be nice. You'll have a good view from
there. Just watch out for pole obstructions.

RF Roof Box is nice because it's elevated. It's probably a little better
than Grandstand 7. No obstructions to worry about up there. The only
problem is if you go down too far to say section 39 or so, it has a
difficult viewing angle. Section 33 does not have that problem.

Good luck,
Frank

First off, great website! I'm headed to Fenway for the first time (8/17) and want to try and get the best seats possible without breaking the bank (trying to keep it under $60/ticket). I'm wondering if bleacher seats (i.e. section 41 or 42), Outfield Grandstand seats (i.e. section 7 or 8) or seats in RF Roof Box (section 33)would be best for us? I'll be buying four tickets in one of these sections, if possible...likely through one of the links on your site. Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Donna,

How did you find us?

By the way, the site was first active in January 2009.

July 30th, 2010 at 7:30 AM

Donna says:

Love this website! Wish I had found it years ago. VT is a long drive to watch a pole for a good part of the game.

July 29th, 2010 at 11:21 AM

Rob says:

Thanks Frank, great site. Keep up the good work.

July 27th, 2010 at 1:49 PM

Precise Seating says:

Rob,

1) Both sides are good. First base side is a little better because more foul balls will come your way (more right handed batters than left). Otherwise it is equal.

2) Yes, there is a bar to lean on that makes a big difference. It's actually much more tiring without the bar. If you get to the game late, all the spots along the bar will be taken and it will not be worth it.

3) The view is excellent. Consider that you are only 1 row behind seats that cost $90 from the Red Sox. You'll see every pitch.

July 27th, 2010 at 7:21 AM

Rob says:

Frank,
I'm looking to get some SRO tickets in the Pavillion.
1) Is 1st or 3rd base better?
2) Is there a bar to lean on in the SRO area?
3) What are the views like?

Love the site, it's very useful. Keep up the great work!
Thanks.

July 26th, 2010 at 1:31 PM

Precise Seating says:

Jason,

One suggestion if you're looking to get a great seat on a limited budget. Pavilion Box standing room is nice and only costs $25 from the Red Sox. You do need to stand but they provide a bar to lean on that makes it comfortable. You would need to arrive at least 1/2 hour before the game to secure a spot along the bar for yourself. The view from there is fantastic and you'll have foul balls coming your way all night. Get the first base side if you can.

Frank

July 22nd, 2010 at 8:25 PM

Precise Seating says:

Jason,

Section 40 row 1 is nice. The Red Sox lowered the height of the screen last year that protects the bullpen so it is no longer an issue. You'll be able to see over it without any trouble. In the past, the first few rows needed to look through the screen. You'll be right in front of the Red Sox bullpen which will be nice. You are in the Bleachers which means that you're a little distance from the infield.

We only have 16 seats listed for row 1 of Section 40. Unless the Red Sox have updated that row and added seats, seat 19 and 20 do not exist. I'm surprized that you were able to get the actual seat numbers on Stubhub since normally they only list the row.

To answer your question, the wheelchair row is a mix of wheelchair slots and actual seats. Our site shows which seats are slots and which are seats. By slots, I mean an empty space of concrete. They will provide a metal folding chair for those who do not need a wheelchair. The actual seats are mixed in to provide a seat for the companion of a wheelchair patron.

Let us know if you have more questions.

Frank

July 22nd, 2010 at 8:19 PM

Jason says:

Im looking at buying tickets on stubhub Bleacher 40 Row 1 seats 19 and 20, its says Wheelchair seating in the notes. Are those actual seats or just spots for wheelchair access. This will be my first Red Sox game so I wanted to get the best seat i could. How is the view from behind the bullpen?

July 22nd, 2010 at 8:58 AM

Precise Seating says:

We are experiencing difficulties with our e-mail (info@preciseseating.com) at the present time. Please leave feedback and questions here. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Frank

July 15th, 2010 at 9:46 AM

Precise Seating says:

Mike,

I'm assuming that you are in Grandstand section 1 which means that you will be under cover from rain by the upper deck. Given that it's a 1:30pm start time and that you're in seats 3 and 4, you may get a small amount of shade early on. Seats 3 and 4 are close to the edge of the section and the upper deck may not adequately cover those seats. As the sun moves West it will probably begin to reach the 7th row from the front. I wouldn't count on a lot of shade.

The pole will be in your direct line of sight and you'll be 7 rows back from it so leaning will not make a lot of difference. The good part is that it will not block home plate. You'll still have a enjoyable experience so long as you don't mind the pitcher's mound being partially blocked.

Frank

June 29th, 2010 at 6:32 PM

Mike says:

Great site! Wish I'd found it before my StubHub purchase

I'm in section 1, row 7, seats 3-4, for a 1:30 pm game. Two questions: (1) Looks like it'll be a sunny day. Will we be in the shade? (2) Is the pole likely to be manageable by leaning forward, left or right?

June 28th, 2010 at 9:45 AM

Precise Seating says:

Dave,

Thanks for the question. There is a pole right next to seat 1 that blocks the view of Right Field a bit. From seat 1, you'll be very close to the pole and as such will be able to lean forward to see most of that right field area. You can see an actual picture of the pole by selecting Grandstand 17 row 3 seat 1. You should have a great view from those seats and the pole will only cause a minor annoyance. Please remember to use our links when purchasing tickets.

Frank

Thanks in advance for the reply.

Precise Seating says:

Right Field Roof Deck seats have been added to the site, including pictures from every table.

June 11th, 2010 at 11:30 AM

Precise Seating says:

Thanks for the question. You are correct that the "L" stands for Lower Bleachers. "U" stands for Upper Bleachers. We do not make the distinction because we find it makes for more confusion. The Red Sox make the distinction because it affects the ticket price. I haven't seen the "A" before but after looking at the seat, I'm fairly certain that it's an indication of an aisle seat.

Glad that we could help save you some money and hassle.

Frank

June 11th, 2010 at 6:17 AM

JohnKruk says:

First off, amazing site, immensely helpful and saved me from wasting some serious money on my first trip to the park.

Question: What do letter designations for Bleacher sections mean? I just bought tickets in section "L42A". My best guess is the "L" is for "Lower", as in "Lower Bleachers"? But wonder what the "A" might mean...The row is 11 and seats 19 & 20. Just seems strange since I can't find that same info anywhere except on the ticket the Sox printed.

Thanks again!

June 11th, 2010 at 12:11 AM

Precise Seating says:

Thanks for the question John. You are correct that the Pavilion row 5 seats are actually padded. We have some updated pictures that need to be put in place. It does have a small table in front of it to place your arms, food, etc. It's quite comfortable.

Frank

June 9th, 2010 at 7:34 PM

Precise Seating for John says:

John sent us the following question but his mail server was rejecting e-mails so we decided to post it:

Your photo for state street pavilion 1, row 5, seats 1,2,3,&4 show barstool seats
with a small table. Is this correct? Also, the seat looks unpadded yet the seat info
I have indicated that they are padded seats as well. Could your photo be an old
photo & they added the padding later? Please advise.

June 9th, 2010 at 7:32 PM

Precise Seating says:

Update to all Grandstand sections: The jumbotron obstruction information has been added for those seats obstructed by the upper deck. A leg room indicator has been added to show the leg room comfort. Also, a row height increase indicator has been added. The row height will help determine if heads in the previous row can be a problem.

Leg room indicator:

Below average - adequate leg room for a 5'10" but with no room to spare. This will cause problems for tall folks.

Average - adequate leg room for most people but still not much room to spare. May cause problems for tall folks.

Above average - comfortable leg room for all people.

Excellent - abundance of leg room.

Row height increase:

Low - There is a small increase in row height from the previous row. This may cause a viewing problem if you have someone tall in front of you. An average sized 12 year old will have difficulty seeing over heads.

Medium - There is a medium height row increase. Minimal problems seeing over heads from the row in front of you. Average sized 12 year old may have trouble if there is a tall person in the row in front of you.

High - There is a high row height increase. There should be no issues seeing over heads from the previous row. Average sized 12 year old should have only minimal viewing trouble.

Thanks for the report on the Coca-Cola Pavilion section as well as other sections.

Frank

May 12th, 2010 at 8:14 AM

Ed says:

Thanks for the site and the tips. The Coca-Cola Pavilion was fun, great overall view of the park and field, a little far from the infield for my taste but my son and father-in-law enjoyed being on top of the world (except when the downpour came tearing through in the top of the fifth!).

Those seats are great for seeing the high drives and fly balls to left field.

On a cool night with any wind, it has the potential to be extremely cold up there. Bring gore-tex, layers, and hats.

Moved to Grandstand 30 row 16 after the second wave of rain hit, closer to infield but roof obstructed those high flies to left. Not bad seats, though.

I've sent photos of the two perspectives.

Took my son to field box 46, row D, for the bottom of the ninth (park was half empty at that point!), great proximity but for an 8-year old hard to see over the heads in front. Would think twice about taking a child to field box seats unless I had the first row or two.

All in all a wet day, Yanks stomped over the Sox, long game with the hour-plus delay, but glad to have experienced Fenway finally. Looking forward to Oct. 3 in Grandstand 12.

May 10th, 2010 at 8:23 PM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Bill,

Yeah, the Red Sox will only mark it obstructed view if it blocks the pitcher's mound or home plate. They should have some additional indicators for obstructions.

Did our site represent the seat view accurately?

Frank

May 10th, 2010 at 8:06 PM

Bill says:

Hi again,

I think the Red Sox need to be a little more liberal on what they consider obstructed view.
Saturday I sat in Sec 15 Row 5 Seat 2 there was a pole four rows in front of me and I was constantly leaning to see almost any play at first or second base.

May 10th, 2010 at 11:33 AM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Ed,

Yes someone 6' tall with long legs could have a problem in the Grandstand seats. It would probably mean that his knees would be up against the seat in front of him.

Pavilion Reserved sections are nice. You're in the last row of the section but you'll still have a good view. Your 8 year old may talk more about how high he was than the game. Kids are like that. :) Leg room will be comfortable for father in law.

Grandstand 12 row 4 will be a fantastic view. The only problem with that occurs near seat 10 because it's behind a pole. The row height increase is Medium.

Thanks for the offer of the photos. We'll be looking forward to them.

Enjoy the games,
Frank

May 5th, 2010 at 7:26 PM

Ed says:

Great site.
Want to take 8-year old son and 89-year old father in law to game (he's 6 feet with long legs). Initially wanted infield grandstand but concerned about his comfort with legroom.
Just bought tickets in row J seats 13-15 of Coke Pavilion for the Yankees game Saturday. I realize this is far from the infield, but would they be more comfortable seats for him?

Also, seems like the overall view is pretty good up there, a nice experience for an 8-year old's first game.

We have grandstand seats in section 12 row 4 for final day of season, that will get him a little closer to the action (surprise gift for birthday).

I will take photos when there and send, since you don't have any of that section (I will give you a license to own the photos if you're concerned about copyright).

Keep up the good work.

Update to Bleacher sections 40, 41, 42, and 43: The first row in these sections was incorrectly marked as row 2. It has now been properly labeled as row 1. In the past it was for a time labeled as row 2 but the Red Sox have changed the row designation. There is no longer a row 2.

April 27th, 2010 at 7:48 PM

Precise Seating says:

They do seem to have many more tickets available than in the past. Also, in past years it was very difficult to find a pair of seats on the Red Sox site which is not currently true.

Frank

April 27th, 2010 at 6:16 PM

Bill says:

Hi Frank,

I was three seats in from the blue railing so getting out wasnt easy. I will say the view was ok. I ended up walking around quite a bit though.

BTW the Red Sox claim of all of these sellouts is bogus. You can go on their website and get single tickets for almost any game day of.

April 27th, 2010 at 6:29 AM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Matt,

Pavilion Club 1 row 1 should have an excellent view. I don't know if there are any extra privileges that go with a seat in that section but I tend to think the answer is no. Maybe there's someone else who can confirm it.

Frank

April 26th, 2010 at 6:57 PM

Precise Seating says:

Also, you are correct, Grandstand section 11 has a difficult view of the outfield if you are close to the railing because Grandstand section 10 is at a higher level.

Frank

April 26th, 2010 at 6:51 PM

Precise Seating says:

Bill, I assume the uncomfortable part of sitting near the blue railing (Grandstand section 10 or Right Field Box section 97) is that getting to the isle is difficult. This is because the only isle is on the other side of the section. Is this correct?

I believe the view from there should be very good.

Frank

April 26th, 2010 at 6:47 PM

Bill says:

PS.
I forgot that blue railing existed when I bought the tickets. If given the choice I probably wouldnt sit there again

April 26th, 2010 at 11:36 AM

Bill says:

For Mary,

Be careful if you sit in the rf boexes in Section 10. That blue railing that seperates where the grounds crew sit and section 11 is a killer.
I went to the game against the Orioles Friday night and sitting at the 'closed' end of the section was most uncomfortable. I have a pic on my home computer whh I will try an upload.

April 26th, 2010 at 11:18 AM

Precise Seating says:

In answer to your question, you'll need to look at the 2D overview map very closely to see if there is a black space at the edge of the section of interest. The black background indicates an aisle.

Frank

April 23rd, 2010 at 1:22 PM

Precise Seating says:

Currently, there's no aisle indicator. In general this is only an issue in the Field Box, Loge Box and a few RFB sections. It would be helpful. We'll consider getting that feature added sometime soon. We have several other features on the list to add before that one. Thanks for asking for it. It's always good to know the changes that can make a difference to fans.

April 23rd, 2010 at 1:15 PM

Mary S says:

Love your site!
I have a question about aisles - is there any indication in your seating charts about the aisles? I know some sections are separated by bars not aisles, so is there any rhyme or reason to being able to tell if your seat is at the edge of a section if it is an aisle or not? (I know you just addressed this for a specific RF Box but wondered if there were any general guidelines)

April 23rd, 2010 at 12:25 PM

Precise Seating says:

Yes, the blue railing runs between Grandstand section 10 and 11. It also continues down between RFB 97 and Loge Box 98.

Frank

April 22nd, 2010 at 11:12 AM

Bill says:

Thanks for the info. I saw a pic on line and I noticed a blue railing thats near canvas ally and figured that was my section.

April 21st, 2010 at 8:43 PM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Bill,

Those are very nice seats. RFB 97 is adjacent to Loge Box 98. The view from there will be excellent. Unfortunately there is no isle between RFB 97 and Loge Box 98. It's still well worth the price.

Frank

April 21st, 2010 at 7:24 PM

Bill says:

Hi.
Im looking at RF BOX b97 row QQ seat 11. For $52 it looks pretty good and better than rf grandstand further out.

Im trying to confirm if im 3 seats in from the aisle on the other side.

Love your site

April 21st, 2010 at 11:28 AM

Precise Seating says:

Cindy,

Thanks for clarifying and thanks for taking some pictures. That will save us a trip. You can send them to info@preciseseating.com.

Frank

April 20th, 2010 at 2:57 PM

Cindy says:

Let me make it clear that it is not the cameraman who causes the obstruction. He is at the very corner of the section and out of the way. It is the fact that the seats are so high that the lower wall of the section itself obscures the foul line in left field. I took several pictures. How can I submit them to you?

April 20th, 2010 at 8:04 AM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Noy,

Both Loge Box and Home Plate Pavilion will be very nice. I would say that the Home Plate Pavilion section would be better. I guess it all depends on which Loge Box section you might be in and your preferences. There are some great Loge Box seats close to Home Plate and then there are some further away. Be careful that you do not choose row AA or BB in the Loge Box since you will have serious problem with walkway traffic blocking your view. Loge Box seats are closer to the field but the row height increase between rows is smaller so there is a larger potential for getting someone tall in the row in front of you. Home Plate Pavilion has a high height increase between rows so there will be no difficultly with tall people. The leg room in the Home Plate Pavilion is much nicer and you will probably get a bunch of foul balls coming your way since it is directly behind home plate. Home Plate Pavilion has a great view because you look down on the field and will probably be able call balls and strikes.

Frank

April 18th, 2010 at 5:56 AM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Cindy,

Thanks for getting back to us. Too bad they lost. We appreciate the details about that section. We'll have to visit the Pavilion Reserved section again and do some analysis on the cameraman and the obstruction it causes.

Frank

April 18th, 2010 at 5:45 AM

cindy says:

My seat did turn out to be in Pavillion Reserved but it was Row J (not UU as my friend had told me) which is the last row in the topmost section in left field. I couldn't see the left field corner. The cameraman was about 7 seats to my left at the same level.
It was almost scary how high it was. there was standing room behind me but it was very cold and there were only a few standers. It was nice in the last row because we could climb out the back and get out of the middle of the row easily.
It was cold, rainy and windy most of the time. But we stayed until the end.
Too bad they lost both games.

This site is great and I will use it in the future for sure.
Go Sox!

April 18th, 2010 at 1:08 AM

Noy says:

This site is so useful and helpful! I'm glad I found it.

I have been debating for the last couple of days where the best location is. I've heard that since the park is kinda small, there really aren't any "bad seats." But honestly, I'm flying up from Charlotte to go to the game against the yankees, and I want the best seats and I'm willing to pay whatever for them. If you had to pick, where would you sit? I am debating between the loge section & the home plate pavilion....

April 17th, 2010 at 7:30 PM

Precise Seating says:

Actually row UU does not exist in the Pavilion Reserved section 18. PB18 row UU is a mystery to me.

Frank

April 17th, 2010 at 5:42 PM

Precise Seating says:

Sorry, we didn't get to this sooner for you. PB18 is probably an abbreviation for Pavilion Box 18. This really should be labeled Pavilion Reserved 18. There is no shelter from rain and you are up high so it will be windy as well.

I am going to the game Sat April 17. Seats are PB18 Row UU seats 1 and 2. I'm trying to figure out where they are so I know how to dress (e/g/ wind/rain in face or back?). Having trouble finding these seats on the chart. Can you help! Thanks!

April 16th, 2010 at 2:05 PM

Precise Seating says:

I'm assuming that you have Grandstand section 25. If so you'll have a great view from row 3 and row 4 as long as you are not in the first couple seats. Seat 1 has a bad pole obstruction that blocks home plate.

There is also Field Box section 25 which would be incredible, or Right Field Roof Box section 25 which would also be very nice.

You can see your exact seat by entering the site and once at the Fenway Park page, entering General Section, section, row and seat to see precise details.

Let me know if you need any additional help.

We have tickets for tues game against the Yankees. We are in Sec 25 row 3 and 4. Can you tell me how good those seas are, obstructions etc? Thank you .

Precise Seating says:

Mike,

Thanks so much for your comments. It's always nice to get that kind of feedback.

We just recently updated our site to be a bit more search engine friendly but it's not quite where it needs to be. If you search using the string, Fenway Park seating chart, it will appear. The more links people add to their sites pointing to us the more it should rise in the ratings. What search strings were you using to try to find us?

Thanks for the offer of the pictures and the offer of additional photos. Send us an e-mail so we can contact you directly.

It would be nice to have a fan photo directory on our site. We'll have to consider how we would manage it. There are several things to be careful of when taking photos. No game time photos, no players faces or close ups of players in the photos, and no fans faces in the photos if you can help it.

Thanks for your help,
Frank

Mike U. says:

I absolutely love this site. I have been using it since last year to get the seating information. It could use some search-engine optimization since it took me some time to find it once I forgot the link.

I will be attending at least 6 games this season in different areas of the ballpark. I will absolutely be submitting my photos to you (to the info@preciseseating.com) address with a full waiver of rights to the photos. It's absolutely worth it.

If you do include an "upload your photo" link, you can include an "I Agree" check box mentioning that by submitting a photo to the site, you are allowing unrestricted use of the photos and any modification thereof, etc. I don't think people would have a problem agreeing to these terms.

Thanks so much for building this. I have told all my friends. Please contact me if you'd like any particular pictures while I am at games this year. I'd be happy to help!

March 31st, 2010 at 7:57 PM

Precise Seating says:

Neil,

Thanks, we'd like to create one for every park as well but unfortunately it takes quite a bit of work. :)

We'd like to have Wrigley Field or Red Sox Palms Park done next. I think the Red Sox are building a new park in Florida for next year. If you have a preference let us know.

We have the data for the leg room and "raised rows". The raised row (height greater than 1 foot to the next row) occurs in the Grandstand, RFB, and Bleachers. It's a nice piece of information because it means that fan's heads in the previous row are not an issue. We'll do our best to get this feature added. The leg room could probably be displayed as "cramped", "average" and "excellent". We'll have to consider that one as well.

Thanks for your comments!
Frank

March 26th, 2010 at 11:13 AM

Neil says:

Great site! I wish there was one like it for every park.

Any chance you can add leg room data to the seat locations? I know some rows at Fenway sit higher than the one in front of it (about every 12th row or so in the bleachers and rf box) making for greater knee and leg room for that row. It would be great to know which rows in each section have this.

Again, great site. Thank You!

March 25th, 2010 at 10:58 PM

Precise Seating says:

Those seats are absolutely wonderful. My guess would be that you're trying to make us all jealous. :)

If you ignore the reference to Section 15, you'll be able to easily locate the seat through our site. The Red Sox often include the Grandstand section number to assist you in finding the Field Box section. Most of the time it only serves to confuse people.

You are directly behind the Red Sox dugout, 38 feet from the field, 125 feet from home plate, and you'll have a wonderful view of the game. Enjoy it!

Field Box 25, sec 15, row M, seat 3 and 4 - how are they?

March 22nd, 2010 at 11:29 PM

Precise Seating says:

John,

I guess that depends on which seat you had in Grandstand 22. Seat 1 is going to be difficult all through the game. Seat 3 is not bad at all. Maybe you could rotate seats every inning with your friends. Right Field Roof box 41 has a difficult viewing angle and is a bit far from home plate. I guess they are about equal.

Frank

March 9th, 2010 at 6:31 AM

John J says:

Thanks for the earlier advice. Having a choice, where would you rather sit, Infield Grandstand section 22 row 4 seats 1,2,and 3 OR Right Field Roof box Sec 41 Row F seats 3,4, and 5.

March 8th, 2010 at 5:31 PM

Precise Seating says:

Ron,

Unfortunately, they do not discount for obstructed view seats. I think they should especially for large obstructions. Also, they probably did not mark the seats as obstructed view because the pitcher's mound and home plate are in view. Do you know which seats you have? The further over you are in row 3 (towards seat 8) the greater the obstruction. It's not so bad at seat 1 and 2. On the plus side, you will have a good view of the entire infield.

Frank

March 7th, 2010 at 7:53 PM

Ron says:

I just purchased 2 Green Monster seats @ $165.00/each.
I didn't know until afterwards that in section 2, row 3, a large portion of the field is blocked by the light tower. I will have to be more careful next time. How ,in their right minds can they charge so much for seats with an obstructed view?

March 7th, 2010 at 10:04 AM

Precise Seating says:

John,

I'm assuming that Section 22 is Grandstand section 22. If so, seat 1 has a pole that blocks home plate and part of the pitcher's mound. Seat 2 gets better but it's still blocking first base. Seat 3 is the best of them since it only has right field blocked from view. You can see all of this by using our site and entering the section, row and seat. Start at the home page and click on the Fenway image.

Let us know if you have trouble using the site.

Frank

John Jenkins says:

i have seats in section 22 row 4 seats 1,2,and 3 for a game in april. Having never been to Fenway, how bad are they and will we still be able to enjoy the game. Thanks!

March 4th, 2010 at 6:11 PM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Bill,

The pole really is there and will block 25% of your view. The 3-d view doesn't show the pole because it is just barely out of view when looking towards the pitcher's mound. All 3-d views are directed at the pitcher's
mound. The 2d view and supporting information provide a much more complete perspective of the experience from a particular seat.

There is an actual picture provided from the 1st seat in every Grandstand row so you'll be able to enter Grandstand Section 15 row 2 seat 1 in order to see the pole. Given that you're in seat 2 and so close to the pole, you'll be able to lean back and forth a bit to improve your view around the pole. Luckily it blocks the outfield and not the infield from that seat.

Regards,
Frank

February 28th, 2010 at 6:33 PM

Bill says:

Great site. Im a little concerned. I have two tickets for two games both in Sect 15. Row 2 is listed as 25% obstructed for seat 2 any thoughts.

February 27th, 2010 at 1:34 PM

Precise Seating says:

The first row in Section 40 of the Bleachers is a wheelchair row. It has been labeled row 2 in the past. It's possible that the Red Sox have relabeled it to be row 1. We'll check on it in April. My guess would be that it is still labeled row 2. Seat 1 and 2 will be very nice from there. The Bleacher screen has been lowered so it's no longer an obstruction issue. You'll have a great view of the Red Sox pitchers in the bullpen. Seat 1 will be a metal folding chair and Seat 2 will be a standard type Bleacher chair.

February 24th, 2010 at 7:43 PM

Jobaca says:

Great website! I just bought tickets for section 40 row 1 seat 1 and 2 and noticed they were wheelchair accessable seats when I received them. The seller on Stub Hub had them listed as row 2 seats. Will there be actual seats for me to sit in? If so how is the view since your site starts in row 2 for section 40?

February 24th, 2010 at 1:39 PM

Jimmy says:

Well, that makes sense.

February 22nd, 2010 at 8:37 AM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Jim,

The Jumbotron visibility is something that we had planned to add this Spring. We were debating if it would be considered visible from Bleacher seats where you needed to turn around completely to see it. Your note helps with that question. Please feel free to give us more feedback on the issue.

What is your exact seat in Bleacher 40?

The obstructed area is mostly from the bullpen wall now that they lowered the screen. It's not really an obstruction since you can still see the players when they are standing on the warning track. We did not include the obstruction percentage because of this. The wall should obstruct the view of the warning track but since you can still see the players, maybe it's not necessary. What do you think?

February 2nd, 2010 at 6:07 AM

Precise Seating says:

Jean F.

Thanks for the feedback. Would you mind if we used your comments on our homepage?

February 2nd, 2010 at 5:56 AM

Jean F. says:

wow, I was so worried my tickets were behind some pole, but they are not (Loge Box). Great site!!

January 31st, 2010 at 3:28 PM

Jim says:

Great site! One addition I'd suggest is to add jumbotron visibility in your visible features. From my seats in bleacher 40, jumbotron is not even visible if you turn around (unless you stand on the seat and crook your neck). I don't mind but some people might.

Also, they lowered the bullpen screen last year. I think your obstructed area is accurate because it used to obscure home plate, but it still seems like the obstructed area is a little large?

January 30th, 2010 at 9:49 AM

Precise Seating says:

Loge Box sections 162 and 163 now have wheelchair seats included.

January 29th, 2010 at 8:21 PM

Precise Seating says:

Bleacher section 37 and 38 has been updated for a few rows that have shelter from rain due to the jumbotron.

January 14th, 2010 at 7:26 PM

Precise Seating says:

Pavilion Club section 9 and section 10 have been updated with a few seat changes and wheelchair seating. Row 4 of both sections had wheelchair seating added as of last year.

January 8th, 2010 at 12:08 PM

Precise Seating says:

As far as we know, Field Box section 18 was unaffected by the inner bowl changes that occurred last year. The entire section has seats 1-4. This information should be accurate.

December 19th, 2009 at 8:06 PM

Will says:

How many seats wide is row L of field box 18. Is there a seat 5 and 6? The seating chart here only shows 1-4.

December 19th, 2009 at 7:35 PM

A correction to the Right Field Box sections has been made. The sheltered from rain indicator for the last few rows has been updated.

Precise Seating says:

Hi Rob,

Yes there are 2 rows of 4 seats. Thanks for letting us know about the problem. For some reason, the images for that section did not get loaded up to the site. They are available now.

November 11th, 2009 at 6:14 PM

rob says:

section 52 of the dugout boxes-there is no information displayed. are they 2 rows of 4 seats each?

November 7th, 2009 at 2:53 PM

A list of the current locations for wheelchair seating can now be found at the bottom of the General Info page.

October 28th, 2009 at 7:47 PM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Edward,

Those should be fantastic seats. I don't see problems so long as it is Grandstand 24 row 1 seat 9 and 10 and the tickets are valid.

September 27th, 2009 at 2:16 PM

Edward says:

I have section 24, row 1, seats 9 and 10. Got them real cheap so I'm scared. Any problems?

September 26th, 2009 at 7:35 AM

Don says:

Thanks Frank,
That pretty much confirms what I've been thinking. Every once in awhile a higher numbered seat is on an aisle.

September 24th, 2009 at 9:15 PM

Precise Seating says:

Hi Don,

Thanks for the question. Almost all the Loge Box rows start with seat #1. There may be a few exceptions. The aisles in the Loge Box sections vary greatly. Sometimes it is on the side starting with seat 1 and sometimes it is on the side with seat 7 or so. You'll need to look closely at the overall map to determine if an aisle exists next to the seat that your interested in. Does this answer your question?

Regards,
Frank

September 23rd, 2009 at 6:12 AM

Don says:

I'm never sure if the hightest number loge seat in a row is going to be on an aisle or inside near the bar. Do all the loge rows start with seat #1 on the aisle and the hightest numbered seat on the inside of the row?

Thanks for the great site.

September 21st, 2009 at 5:42 PM

Precise Seating says:

The Bleacher screen mentioned in a previous note was measured back in April. We found that our estimation on the height was correct and the adjustment made back in February was accurate. No further adjustment is necessary.

September 2nd, 2009 at 6:11 AM

Precise Seating says:

Grandstand sections 17 thru 24 have been corrected for changes in the last couple rows. Mostly wheelchair seating changes and seat widening changes.

August 28th, 2009 at 5:50 AM

Precise Seating says:

Dugout Box 7 & 9 have been added. Both of these sections have wheelchair seating only.

August 24th, 2009 at 8:46 PM

Precise Seating says:

The Right Field Roof Terrace has been added to the site.

August 17th, 2009 at 7:30 PM

Precise Seating says:

The entire Right Field Roof Box has been updated with the following information:
1) New pictures for the first seat in every row.
2) Updated picture of the seat itself.
3) Position adjustment to improve accuracy.

Great Site!!! I used the site for the game last night (Aug 12th) and the view was exactly as shown on the site!!! I used the StubHub link on your site and looked at the seat view before purchasing the tickets, it worked great. Great Tickets and Great Views, thank you Precise Seating!!!

We also went to the Fenway Tour before the game and we highly recommend the Tour. For $12 (adult) they gave a great overview and history of the Ball Park. And we were able to see the views from the Pavilian, Right Field Roof Box and Green Monster seats!!! Awesome views!

August 13th, 2009 at 7:50 AM

Precise Seating says:

The seats are the same width as when you were a kid. The Grandstand still has the 1934 oak seats which are a little cramped. All the Pavilion sections are new and have excellent seats. The inner bowl for Loge Box and Field Box have been replaced this year and are nice. The rest are somewhere in between.

August 5th, 2009 at 7:21 PM

Vi says:

Great info. I have not been to Fenway since I was a kid. Needless to say I am much bigger now. How wide are the seats?

July 31st, 2009 at 10:17 PM

Dan says:

After attending the game last night I can confirm that the bar on the Budweiser deck is open to all fans, and that the lines are still short.

July 30th, 2009 at 1:39 PM

Precise Seating says:

Thanks for the feedback! You're welcome to send photos to info@preciseseating.com. Thus far we have only used our own photos and images. We'd have to check what is required legally to use photos from others. For example, getting permission to use the photos as well as modify them if needed.

One option is to use the photos directly in our images. Another option may be to provide a separate means to add information and pictures. Any suggestions on how best to manage this would be welcome.

July 27th, 2009 at 11:38 AM

David Gallant says:

This is a great sight - suggestion though - let us help you by sending you photos of our seats when we get them. I don't see anywhere I can upload photos. Otherwise, awesome sight! I have forwarded it on to all my friends!

July 26th, 2009 at 12:41 AM

Precise Seating says:

Field Box sections have been updated to show the new seat pictures (sections 21 to 70).

July 21st, 2009 at 7:43 PM

Precise Seating says:

The Right Field Roof Terrace has barstool style metal seats that are not bolted down. I think that they do this so that wheelchairs can be put in place without any trouble. The Right Field Roof Box and the Right Field Roof Terrace are not gated. Anyone can access it. You can easily move between the RFR Box and RFR Terrace. The terrace is behind the RFRB and raised up.

July 21st, 2009 at 7:40 PM

Dan says:

As of last season, regular ticket holders could access the back side of the bar on the Budweiser deck. Gates and security personel restrict access to the seats and standing room to Bud deck ticket holders, but the bar is (was) open to everyone. Two factors make this especially relavent. First, lines are typically short to non-existent, and second, while many Fenway vendors sell beer in 12 oz. cups, beer sold on the Bud deck comes in 16 oz. cups for the same price.

I am particularly interested to see the newly renovated right field roof section. I have standing room tickets to the Right Field Roof Box for next week, and see that standing room tickets to the Right Field Roof Terrace are sold seperately (for the same price, both $10 more than regular standing room). Does anyone know if the right field roof sections are gated from other areas of the park, and if the RFR "Terrace" is segregated from the RFR "Box?"

July 21st, 2009 at 2:00 PM

Precise Seating says:

Loge Box sections have been updated to show the new seat pictures (inner bowl) and indicate rows that are sheltered from rain (last couple rows).

July 19th, 2009 at 2:54 PM

Precise Seating says:

Home Plate Pavilion Club seat images have been refreshed to reflect the new upper deck changes.

July 18th, 2009 at 7:46 AM

Precise Seating says:

As far as I know, the Bud Deck and amenities are only available to Bud Deck ticket holders.

I don't have any recommendations for websites selling tickets except for stubhub. I have used stubhub and it worked out fine for me.

Personally, I think one of the best values is the Pavilion Box standing room. You do have to stand but the price is low and the view is great.

July 1st, 2009 at 6:28 AM

CJ says:

Is the Bud Deck and its amenities accessible from the Right Field Roof Box seats? Do you have any recommended websites of where to buy tickets without getting screwed?
Thanks...thisa site is the best!!!~

June 30th, 2009 at 6:03 PM

Precise Seating says:

Steve,
We have the information for the Right Field Terrace Boxes but have not entered them as yet. We will be doing so soon.

Terrace B, seats 32-35 will be directly behind Right Field Roof Box section 39. You can get a general perspective by selecting RFRB 39 row G seat 1. The seat type is a metal barstool.

Thanks for you comments, we appreciate folks letting us know about missing seats or any changes we need to make. The Red Sox actually make many more changes than they let the press know about. Your comments help us find many of those like the Dugout Box changes noted below.

June 29th, 2009 at 3:22 PM

Steve says:

I have tickets for RF Box - Terrace B, Row 1, seats 32-35. How does this map to your system. BTW - great idea and execution of software. I lknow it must be a bear to keep up wiht changes

June 29th, 2009 at 2:23 PM

Precise Seating says:

Janice,
After reviewing some information online, we are finding that there is a Dugout Box 9 as well as, Dugout Box 7 that were not previously there. We will update our site once we're able to obtain the exact seat information.

June 29th, 2009 at 1:03 PM

Precise Seating says:

Janice,
We currently do not have a Dugout Box section 9. It is possible that the Red Sox have added Dugout Section 9 since we last checked on it. If so, it would be directly in front of the Field Box section 9. Dugout box sections only have 2 rows and they are labeled row 1 and 2. The info you provided with row 1 seat 2 would make sense but row D4 would not. I can only guess at what D4 might mean but you might wish to check with the folks you bought them from. If there is a Dugout Box section 9, row 1 is right on the field and will be a fantastic seat.

June 29th, 2009 at 8:24 AM

Janice says:

The ticket says..
Dugout Box c/a
Section 9, Row D4, Row 1, Seat 2. I know I am in the box seats in canvas alley but am I in the first row right on the field?

June 28th, 2009 at 6:22 AM

Craig says:

This is AWESOME!! Great idea, and long overdue. Keep up the great work!!!

June 27th, 2009 at 4:44 PM

Precise Seating says:

Janice,
Could you provide all the info for the ticket? I'm not sure what D4 represents. There are rows labeled with a single letter, double letter and numbers. It depends on the general section as to how the rows are labeled. They are not mixed within a general section. Row 1 and Section 9 could mean Grandstand 9 row 1 but there should be more information about the general section. Section 9 also appears in the Field Box and Green Monster.

Alvero,

Section 4 Box 90 would mean that the ticket is for the Right Field Box section 90. Section 90 is below Grandstand section 4. The Red Sox provide this additional information (Grandstand section) to help guide you but I think it is more confusing. Hope that helps.

June 27th, 2009 at 7:43 AM

alvaro says:

what means secction 4 box 90?

June 25th, 2009 at 11:07 PM

I have tickets that have two rows listed D4 and Row 1. I am confused to where these are. they also say section 9.

June 25th, 2009 at 8:32 AM

Precise Seating says:

Grandstand sections 31 and 32 have been updated to include the wheelchair seating in row 16. Row 15 in both sections has been adjusted since seats were removed from this row to accommodate the wheelchair seating.

June 10th, 2009 at 7:58 PM

Precise Seating says:

Devin, after reviewing some of the concert seating arrangements, we noticed that the temporary seating on the grass field varies from concert to concert. This makes it difficult to keep the concert seating up to date. We are still reviewing it but it may be some time later when we come to a decision on it.

May 30th, 2009 at 3:38 PM

Precise Seating says:

Green Monster pictures have been added for the first seat in every row. This has been done for all 10 sections.

May 27th, 2009 at 7:22 PM

Precise Seating says:

Bill, your welcome! Glad we could help and thanks for the feedback.

Devin, that's a great idea. We'll consider making another set of images with the perspective of the concert arrangement. Currently you can select seats and get a feel for obstructions and location of seats. The stage would be located in Center Field with the 17 foot wall as the back of the stage area.

May 26th, 2009 at 6:16 PM

Bleacher section 39 previously had rows from 1 to 31. We believe that the rows in this section were renumbered when the bleacher seats were replaced. The rows are now correctly number from 20 to 50.

February 20th, 2009 at 9:39 AM

Precise Seating says:

The Bleacher screen that previously caused an obstruction for section 40 through 43 has been lowered. We have been able to estimate the screen height and have replaced the first 9 rows in those Bleacher sections to reflect the change. The screen should no longer be a problem although we will not be able to get an exact measurement until April.

Hi Steven,

Thanks for the feedback. It's based on the 2008 arrangement. Seat 22 on our map is very close to blocking 3rd base and looks to be less than a foot away from it. In general that is the level of accuracy that you can expect. Of course, we are always trying to be as precise as we can and we'll check on this particular seat in April.

Thanks!

Hi PS:

Great information on your web site!

Is the infield grandstand seat layout based on the 2008 arrangement or the revised 2009 plan with wider seats?

I sat in section 24, row 14 last year and noted an obstruction in seat 22; with the pole right over the 3rd base bag.

Your site notes seat 20 as the first seat to obstruct 3rd base; which is different from my experience.

Can you help?
