I understand the city limiting the public access to Boston residents only but.....sure are going to be some disappointed young hockey fans and players out there! I know one avid Bruin fan, club hockey player from eastern CT watching the rink get built online at Boston.com etc..whom was sure looking forward to an opportunity to skate at Fenway!
According to the Mayor's Office, there are 3000 skate tickets equally distributed amongst the 16 Centers listed. Each Boston resident can get up to 4 tickets for themselves and their family. So, there are approximately 187/188 tickets per Center (3000/16) of which the first approximately 47/48 persons can get the entire allocation if they each take 4 tickets.
Something to think about if you are considering waiting out in the cold for these. Good luck!
Charlestown had 200 tix. People started sleeping out at 4am. If you weren't one of the first 50 in line, you were out of luck. Sadly, my family was out of luck!
I just hope people don't start selling these for huge money.
I passed the Jackson-Mann school on the bus at about 7:40 this morning, on my way in to work - there was a line from the front door all the way down the steps to the sidewalk and a police car with lights flashing at the curbside.

Too late
They're already going for $200 on Craigslist.
