Vitals for the teams and haunts I check on between shifts. Heart rate up during the ninth inning, resting during the third period unless it's the playoffs. Currently pairing all of this with the last two fingers of a bourbon I can't rebuy, so pour accordingly.

Chart notes on Boston sports — 8 items
Name	Comment	Address	City	Sport	Vitals
1Fenway Park	Oldest patient on the chart and still throwing strikes. The Monster seats are a chiropractic event.	4 Jersey Street	Boston, MA	Baseball	Built 1912, oldest active MLB park, cap ~37,700
2TD Garden	Banners overhead like a chart full of prior normals. Parquet still squeaks the same as it did in the tape delay era.	100 Legends Way	Boston, MA	Basketball / Hockey	Home to Celtics and Bruins, cap ~19,000
3Gillette Stadium	A forty-minute drive that feels like a full triage shift. Worth it for a good defensive series.	1 Patriot Place	Foxborough, MA	Football	Patriots and Revolution, cap ~65,000
4Bleacher Bar	Best seat for a game you're not actually watching. Order the pretzel, chart the outfield through the glass.	82A Lansdowne Street	Boston, MA	Baseball adjacent	Garage-door window onto center field, full bar
5The Fours	Wallpaper is jerseys and box scores. Good pregame vitals before a Garden night.	166 Canal Street	Boston, MA	Multi-sport bar	Sports memorabilia walls, pre-Garden staple since 1976
6Boylston Street Marathon Finish Line	I take my Patriots' Day walk here every year. Resting heart rate of the whole city spikes for a morning.	Boylston Street near Copley Square	Boston, MA	Marathon	Blue and yellow paint line, marks 26.2 miles run
7Head of the Charles Regatta course	Autumn crowd along the banks looks calmer than any waiting room I've worked. The rowers are not calm.	Charles River Reservation, Storrow Drive	Boston, MA	Rowing	Three-mile course, largest two-day regatta in the world
8Warrior Ice Arena	Free to watch practice most days. Closer look at gait and stride than any TV angle gives you.	90 Guest Street	Brighton, MA	Hockey practice facility	Bruins practice rink, public skating available
