Ok, now I'm confused. Many months ago I posted a FAVORITE BALLPARK NICKNAME thread/poll. I listed "The Fens" as a nickname and was told by you and efin98 that neither of you had ever heard of Fenway being called that, and yet I've since indeed heard/seen it refered to as that, and now here again, you call it that.

Explaination?

You must of started a new fad, Elvis. All of sudden Tina Cervasio on NESN was calling it that, then Jerry Remy, then some members around here, and now even I'm calling Fenway "the Fens." It needs a nickname anyways.

I've been calling it "The Fens" for years.

Great, great pictures, by the way. I can't wait to see the ol' park again. Dunno when I will, but I look forward to it.
