Look outside. Yep, it’s the weekend.
You: watching Sox-Yankees, this September, in the best seats at Fenway. With these exclusive tickets, only available via Perks. We also got you 30% off Swiss-made timepieces from Tsovet, and 30% off classic tennis polos from Boast. (Hint: you’re buying them for Dad.)
A fact you might not have known: there’s something called the World Musical Chairs Federation. And while you might chuckle at the idea, know that they’re hosting a live music festival and musical chairs world championship in two weeks. Grand prize: $10,000. Time to start warming up the glutes.
This time of year, one covets the outdoors. More specifically, one covets patios like the one at Catalyst, which is not only launching a totally different outdoor lunch menu (think: roasted coulotte steak, crispy pork ribs), but also offering up magnum bottles of rosé to sip. Rosé is best served magnum.
One more reason to go to Nantucket this weekend: the Sea Dog brewpub officially opens tomorrow morning—bringing along with it their porter and summer microbrews and lobster flatbreads. They’ll also have Nantucket-y cocktails like the Champagne Punch (mango rum, bubbly and pineapple juice). It’s not ACK without punch.
You’ve been good this week. So Church is rewarding you with a Saturday-only, all-you-can-eat brunch packed with Jonah crab hush puppies, sloppy joe sliders and spicy homemade sausage flatbreads. If there were ever a time to see how many sloppy joes you can handle, it’s now.
Micky Ward. Legendary boxer. Film character (see: The Fighter). And someone who’ll be signing copies of his new book in the North End Saturday, followed by a screening of his fight against Arturo Gatti, which Ring magazine called 2002’s fight of the year. Next to your bout with a snack machine that year, that is.
