SUBMITTED BY: David H. LOCATION: Boston, Massachusetts (2012) Fenway Park is strangely not a happy place these days, but tongue-wagging Dave is having more fun than a dog hanging his head out the car window! Any other MLB ballparks have these photoboards?

When was the last time you saw a happy runner? (Photojournalist […]
