What Sport Would You Like to See Next at Fenway Park? It was clear by the raucous crowds that packed into Fenway Park on Wednesday night for the football match between Celtic FC and Sporting CP that it's an ideal setting for more than just baseball.

In fact, Fenway's storied walls have housed many different events in the past including the Fenway Concert Series and more recently, the NHL Winter Classic. It's obvious America's Most Beloved Ballpark is a versatile venue where fans can enjoy a multitude of events.

So what event is next in store for Fenway?

From European football to American football, the Fens could be a great venue for a game on the gridiron. The Boston Patriots called Fenway home back in the 1960s, so why not let history repeat itself? Whether it's a college or professional game, Yawkey Way could provide a fun atmosphere for an American football game.

A "Fight Night" at Fenway could really pack a punch. Imagine a canvas ring parked in shallow center with the big lights shining down — what could be better than that? It's been done before in other baseball stadiums, so why shouldn't Fenway join the ranks?

Or should it be a lacrosse game? America's fastest-growing sport has definitely proven to be a hit in Boston, as fans packed Harvard Stadium for the MLL All-Star Game in early July. The fast-paced game is full of action with lots of goal-scoring opportunities, and there's no doubt lacrosse fans could get Fenway rocking.

The opportunities are endless, so what sport should be played next at Fenway Park? If you think it should be American football, text "SOX1" to 542542. If you think it should be a fight night, text "SOX2" to 542542. If you think it should be lacrosse, text "SOX3" to 542542.
