Was Obama booed at Fenway? The only source seems to be a wingnut on Twitter.

Anybody know anything?

1. I can answer that without having been there. No!

If he was boo'd it was a lone idiot probably named Brown.

2. Let's do some math ....

Crazy ass wingnut making ridiculous claim ? ... CHECK !

Tens of thousands of people go to ball games ? ... CHECK !

Out of those tens of thousands, at least 25% are absolute red meat tea party a-holes, of which at least HALF of those will have a cellphone capable of taking videos ? ..... CHECK and CHECK ! (I would estimate the TeaVangelists would have 6,000 cellphones)

Assume at least ONE of those videos would be found on youtube, even so soon after the game started ? ...... CHECK ! .. Hell Yeah ! .... People send instant videos to youtube all the time ....

Number of videos found on youtube of Obama being booed ? ..... NADA .... ZERO ... Not a one ....

Not an exact science ... But an edumacated guess ....

Boston Sports Monsters Allegedly Boo President’s Recorded Video Message

President Obama is definitely a jerk, now. Why did he record a video message today praising the Boston Red Sox, their fans, and their stadium, when all of those things are pure evil? The President should be ashamed to associate himself with such a diabolical Hitler-y terrorist organization that hates happiness, and freedom. It’s not like those people are capable of appreciating friendly compliments, anyway. Because according to the never-wrong Twitter machine, the daytime-drunk fans booed when Obama’s message played on the Jumbotron at today’s Fenway Park 100th Anniversary game. Where’s the news? This is what Boston sports fans do when they see any person.
