🌭🥲 Our wishlist: Every piece of hot dog Boston Red Sox merch known to man.

The Red Sox have been going viral lately for their special ticket offer swag, doling out everything from hot dog hats to Dunkin’ iced coffee caps to Fenway Frank f***y packs (our personal fave).

Their latest special ticket offers include an espresso martini (or dirty martini) baseball hat for their home game on July 20, and a mystery squishy dumpling (IYKYK) on Aug 17-19.

Have you gotten your hands on any of this merch? Let us know below 👀

🤪🚂 Consider this permission to play hooky on Fridays …

Starting June 5, the will be fare-free EVERY Friday through August (a silver lining to the impending World Cup chaos).

So we obviously had to plan out some day trips. We talked to our friends, our colleagues, and ourselves to map out seven hooky-worthy adventures in and around Massachusetts.
