Then again, the 2004 parade was held on a Saturday, and Boston parents will have a tough dilemma this year, as Boston schools will remain in session during the victory parade.
The celebratory parade begins at noon at Fenway Park. Red Sox players, coaches and staff will ride Duck Boats through the city and past Boston Common; the parade will conclude near City Hall. This year, the Ducks will not enter the water and travel along the Charles River, as they did in 2004.
The event is being billed once again as a "Rolling Rally." There will be no stops along the parade route and no event at City Hall at the parade's conclusion due to concerns about crowd sizes and security.
