And the one that got us: What was the original color of the Green Monster before it became green?
Since it's a sports question written by BT, did they say it was "dark blue" or "navy" in color originally?
Well, hell. IIRC, "BLUE". I figured they'd take the easy, albeit maybe not most accurate, approach to that question.
That's a brutal question, especially as worded.
There were so many ginormous ads on that thing back in the day, I'd be surprised if people that were at those games could actually tell you what color it was at the time.
Brutal.
And with the inclusion of the word "original", that brings other colors into play.
When they rebuilt that wall in the 30's it was originally concrete covered with tin in various spots. So, grey or silver maybe?
Yep. Brutal.
But I probably don't need to tell a huge Sox fan such as yourself about these little peccadillos, do I?
