This fan has seen more people having religious experiences at Red Sox games than in any church anywhere...



This fan(atic) feels that his mask has magical powers to make things happen on the field.


This veteran is moved every time he enters Fenway. He's seen it all and it weighs heavy on his heart.



"I may have moved from historic Boston to the wilds of Colorado, but I still cheer for the Red Sox. If distant intentionality affects the
outcome of their games positively, so much the better. Stay tuned to this website for the latest scientific breakthroughs. What a fun way to combine science and spirit!"

Who would have thought that Western science, Eastern metaphysics, and prayer would converge in Fenway Park?

For most Red Sox fans, being crowned as World Champions, was the fulfillment of a lifelong dream. For two fans, however, it was the beginning of a quest to uncover the deeper truth behind that magical season and behind the player-fan interaction, in general.

The Joy of Sox documentary film explores the world of subtle energy science through the lens of baseball fandom.

Do fans affect players through the power of their intention?
Is it better to pray for your team or against the opposition?
Is Fenway Park a sacred space?
