HQ - In the middle of the 8th inning, at every Red Sox home game at Fenway Park, 37,000 people stop to sing 'Sweet Caroline.'

At the two minute mark, the music drops out and it's nothing but the a chorus of the Fenway Faithful.

So good! So good! So good!

  • aww!! this is great video! i live in boston and go to red sox games all the time! i have been studying abroad though and got very homesick, but your video made me smile again :) thank you!

  • that's great! glad i could help!

  • does anyone no why we sing that song

  • Amy Tobey was Fenway's music director from 1998 to 2004. She was responsible for choosing the music to be played between innings and picked Sweet Caroline simply because she had heard it played at other sporting events.

    At first, Tobey played the song at random games sometime between the seventh and ninth innings, and ONLY if the Red Sox were ahead as a good luck charm. It soon became something the fans anticipated.

  • Sweet Caroline become an official Fenway tradition in 2002 when John Henry's group bought the team. New ownership requested that Tobey play the song during the eighth inning of every game.

  • i was at that game member when duston hit that home run at the begining

  • oh i remember. i was actually sitting in the second row behind the visitors on deck cirlce for the first 6 innings. needless to say, i had a pretty good view of it all!
