Rooters: The Birth of Red Sox Nation - Intro

"Rooters: The Birth of Red Sox Nation" is the story of Boston fans; from their "birth" as the 200 "Roxbury Rooters" in 1897 to their transformation into millions known today as RED SOX NATION. Through rare images and film the saga is told by Boston baseball legends like Johnny Pesky and Peter Gammons, historians, Red Sox players and officials, everyday fans and the Red Sox Nation members descended from the original "Rooters". Super-Fans like "Nuf Ced","Honey-Fitz" and the "Queen of Fenway Park" come to life as the film shows how the foundation was laid for today's Fenway Faithful. Linking past to present, "Rooters" is the heartwarming tale of how generations of fans have passed on their love for the Red Sox like a family heirloom. This two-volume DVD follows the story from "The Birth of Red Sox Nation" Vol. 1, to the modern day phenomenon of how "Red Sox Nation Lives" Vol. 2.

This film was awesome, every Sox fan should see this. No other team/city has a full blown history/film about their fans let alone a film about their team. I never knew any of this story aside from the DKM song. Sox in 2008 too.

The best thing about being a member of Red Sox Nation is the older you are, the more pride you have in it. I remember crying after the Sox lost to the Reds in 75, the Mets in 86 and being in shock for almost a year when we won in 1994..... "To be continued."
