Hello all, how is everyone doing?  Getting ready for the amazing weekend in sports around Boston? Celtics playoff game, Bruins playoff game, the Sox are back in town and don't forget about the Boston Marathon.  Wow!  I'll be spending most of my weekend at Agganis Arena watching the Flight of the Conchords and Kings of Leon.  Kings of Leon is one of my favorite new bands, so I am really looking forward to the concert.  Enough of my personal life, let's get to the first standings check for the free Red Sox update.  I will be announcing the specific game and opponent next week, so hopefully this will spur on more activity.  The more readers we have, the more contest we'll do. You just might see some B's or C's playoff tickets come up!  

Standings:

1. Jeff Storme: 12 new members

2. Holly Corrigan: 10 new members

3. John Celesk: 9 new members

4. Karen Ingram: 7 new members

Keep up the good work.  Don't be afraid to tell us how we're doing either!

Win Free Red Sox Tickets!

By Jim Ingram

Fan Fanatic Sports Staff

We need the help of our fans.  In my opinion, there's no easier way to get sports fan motivated than offering free tickets, so that's what FFS is going to do.  This is the first of many contests and unique prizes to come.  I have created a Fan Fanatic Sports group on Facebook. You can click on the link above to take you directly there.  

Here's what to do:

1. Sign up as a fan yourself on the page

2. Sign as many friends up as possible and make sure they recognize you as the person who signed them up.

3. The contest began on April 13th and runs until Friday, May 1st.  The person who adds the most members to our group will win Two (2) FREE tickets to an upcoming Boston Red Sox game. 

It's as simple as that.  Good luck and thank you for the effort
