Watch the Red Sox on HDTV inside Fenway Park
Posted in Home Theater by Ben on May 6th, 2006 
Speaking of HDTV and the Red Sox (when I talked about the SlingBox a few days ago) reminded me..
A few weeks ago I had the priveledge to go on a tour of Fenway Park hosted by Vice President of Planning and Development Janet Marie Smith. The purpose of the tour was to bring in the community interest groups in the local community and thank us for our patience with all the renovations and to show off some features such as the new sound system which was intended to cause much less noise pollution in the neighborhood.
As I was walking around I noticed a TON of new 720p Toshiba plasma screens. I think they were the 50 inch (50HP66) screens from Toshiba. I forgot to write them down at the time :(
Anyway they must have had 100+ tvs they were installing all around the ballpark.
Thats a pretty cool idea. The Red Sox are owned by the same owners as the NESN - New England Sports Network which this year is broadcasting all Red Sox games in HDTV 720p format. How better to show off HDTV to the fans than to install a bunch of beautiful new plasmas all over the park.
Do you know of any ball parks that have put in HDTV’s? If so is it reserved just for the club seats or do they have them througout the stadium?
