A. T. Blighton

Received a BS in HIstory with a minor in Journalism from Northeastern University. I've been a Red Sox partial season ticket holder since 2004 (great year to start off). Currenlty live and work right in the city. Highlight of being a fan was attending game 7 of the 2004 ALCS in the Bronx. Playing days are long over but still hit the diamond every monday in the summer as a member of a beer league softball squad.
