Once upon a time, Red Sox fans and Yankees fans were baseball brethren, thick as thieves, closer than close. They shared everything with one another, including their beer, their hot dogs, and the hopes and dreams they held for their respective teams.

Author Biography

Andy Wasif, a lifelong Red Sox fan, first focused on sports journalism before turning his attention to stand-up comedy. Fully recovered from that profession, the Syracuse University graduate has spent the last few years enjoying the teams' renewed rivalry as he studied the two fan bases and their relationship with each other. This is the third in his series of humorous Red Sox books, following How to Talk to a Yankee Fan and Red Sox University.
