First off, thanks to everyone who's posted in this thread. Lots of great ideas and things I wouldn't have thought of.
My dad and I are coming to town on Friday, catching the Pats game Sunday, and the B's game Monday. Excited doesn't begin to explain it!
I do have a couple of questions I'm hoping a local can help with:
- Luke's Lobster. I heard on the recent Flames pregame broadcast the pbp guy was definitely stopping in for a lobster roll. Worth it? Are their better one's in town, or is that a classic that should be tried?
- The Fours - I'm guessing it's good place to catch the B's-Leafs on Saturday? We're staying on N Hudson Street and wanting to find a place nearby that'll have the sound on.
- Gambling. My dad and I like to play a little blackjack when we visit each other. Is MGM Springfield the closest for this?
- Tours. Duck vs trolley? I'm guessing no water for the duck boats this time of year? If you could only do one, which would it be?
- Finally, my dad is not really into the arts, music, history, or anything like that. Last time we went to Vegas I took him on a dune buggy adventure and he loved it. Any 'experiences' within an hour or so of Boston that would be worth checking out?
Thanks in advance - I know it's a lot of questions, but I got such great answers in the Pat's thread I figured I'd push my luck here too
