Havoc will erupt at Fenway Park on Sunday, but Clay Buchholz will not be involved

BPD and Homeland Security will create an impromptu battlefield at Fenway Park this weekend with an Army center that works to develop the weapons of tomorrow.

Sunday's "full scale counterterrorism exercise" will ring out with "realistic-sounding, simulated gunshots" between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. as drones fly overhead and various other technologies, including bomb-sniffing dogs and specialized metal detectors, get put to the test.

Yawkey way, from Brookline Avenue to Boylston Street and Van Ness Street from Ipswich to Ross Way, will be shut.

Wonder if John Henry & the BRA will have vendors on Yawkey Way selling coffee & donuts to participants in the morning, or beer when they're all done? Streets's closed, after all...

What's the chance that DHS will pay the Sox MORE this weekend for renting the stadium then the Sox will pay the City of Boston for ownership of that street?

Hands
Searching bags
Reachin' out
Friskin' me
Gropin' youuuuuuuuuuu
Sweeeeeeeet DHS (Boom boom boom)
Freedom never felt so free (So scared! So scared! So scared!)
I've been inclined
To think this ain't how it...used...to....be...now

We heard a blast at Fenway, OH NO OH
We didn't know where to GO OH
But it was nothing to fear
We ordered more beer
And laughed at the curse of the Bambino

I am going to run through the fenway neighborhood Sunday morning covered in blood, yelling "help".

I am not impressed by the ``Sunday's "full scale counterterrorism exercise" will ring out with "realistic-sounding, simulated gunshots"`` bit. It's past midnight, and the noise made by Army Engineers messing with the Muddy River are louder than any gunshots. The bed is shaking every once in a while. I can't see how can the HSD be more war-like.
