Product Description
Rooters: The Birth of Red Sox Nation is the story of Boston fans; from their birth as the 200 Roxbury Rooters in 1897 to their transformation into millions known today as RED SOX NATION. Through rare images and film the saga is told by Boston baseball legends like Johnny Pesky and Peter Gammons, historians, Red Sox players and officials, everyday fans and the Red Sox Nation members descended from the original Rooters. Super-Fans like Nuf Ced,Honey-Fitz and the Queen of Fenway Park come to life as the film shows how the foundation was laid for today's Fenway Faithful. Linking past to present, Rooters is the heartwarming tale of how generations of fans have passed on their love for the Red Sox like a family heirloom. This two-volume DVD follows the story from The Birth of Red Sox Nation Vol. 1, to the modern day phenomenon of how Red Sox Nation Lives Vol. 2.

5 out of 5 stars A Well Told, Entertaining Documentary   January 8, 2008
As a documentary buff and a lifelong Red Sox fan, I found "Rooters" to be a perfect blend of great storytelling, history (well beyond just sports history) and of course all things Red Sox. An excellent film!

5 out of 5 stars Fascinating   December 21, 2007

I saw this show on NESN and had to buy this dvd right away. I cant understand why its on two dvds when it could fit onto one easily. While I cant share the pain of a die hard Sox fan, ive been a die hard fan since the beginning of 2004. I saw Johnny Damon and I was hooked watching it. That year, the curse ended and a new era begun for Red Sox's. I even told a friend at work in 2005 after Sox lost in the playoffs, I bet you Damon will sign with the Yankees. Sure enough he did.

Back to the dvd though. I loved the rich history of the Sox's fans from the Rooters to the Nation it is today. I thought the dvd did a excellent job at the early years up until today, although after 1918 it does seem a bit rushed. Very good dvd overall though and highly recommended if your a Sox's fan.



1 out of 5 stars Worse fans in the baseball   December 10, 2007
Rude, arrogant, and slobs. All this BEFORE they won anything. It only took them a century to do it.
Baseball isn't what it use to be. Now its all about hired guns, watered down baseball, wild card, no team
allegence. Baseball had its glory days from the 20's to the 60's.



4 out of 5 stars Great history   December 3, 2007
I grew up with the Red Sox and thought I knew a lot about the history, given the fact my Dad grew up in Boston, but I was surprised at how mcuh I did not know. This was a fun and interesting DVD. I only wish there was more of the current players interviewed!
