A Simple Thought

Before we have any more naming ceremonies at Fenway, maybe it's time for a simple monument to remember Victoria Snelgrove.

If her family found it appropriate and desired, maybe a small plaque somewhere inside the ballpark would be fitting. The plaque could be dedicated in a private ceremony, away from the bright lights that surround everything Boston Red Sox.

Tragedies like this young girl's recur because we forget too easily. Nothing like this should ever happen again.

completely agree - from someone who was at the "riot" that night I feel it was a totally preventable tragedy and something we should not let ourselves forget
