You could also look into the Airline lounges at Logan. Some might have showers and a day pass you could buy. A quick google recommends American Airlines Admirals Club.

I would sometimes play a game where I would walk to the next bus stop so I had something to do while waiting for the bus when there was a long wait or significant delay. Then I'd get to the next stop, check the new delay, realize I could probably walk to the next stop and still catch the bus. Repeat this a couple times and half the time I'd beat the bus to my destination.

I was a member from 2016-2019, they canceled my membership with no issue when I asked. After the first year i wasn’t in a contract and was paying month to month anyway. I think a lot of the issues came from when they were forced to close during Covid for a very long time. The gyms themselves are typically clean and well equipped, and not crazy expensive for what they offer.

Whenever I get the thought again, "We Irish Americans aren't like real Irish folk", I'm going to think of this post.

My question is a little more nuanced, I read that post before I made this one! There’s an episode in season 3 I think where they show houses and apartments with each character who lives there speaking from inside. Not too accurate though there wasn’t a single triple decker in the entire opening.

I was at that game! I remember looking up at the scoreboard and it saying "Period 6". Lowell won on a bounce into the net off a skate. I stuck around for the first period of the BC/NU game and headed home. I was pretty hungover that next day, but rallied to go see Lowell lose to Northeastern.

Probably the drunkest I've ever been in my adult life the semi-finals of the hockey east tournament in 2016. Providence vs. UMass Lowell went into triple overtime and the BC-Northeastern game, that I was there to see, didn't even start until like 10pm. Fortunately that was the last weekend of late night T service.

I went to another game at the Garden a week or 2 later and the Sam Adams guy remembered me from the Hockey East game.
