Reverse the CurseOn an bridge over Storrow Drive (one of the main roads through Boston, MA) there is a sign that should say 'Reverse curve'. I moved here about two years ago and it has always been graffitied (sp?) to read 'Reverse the Curse', presumably a reference to the 'Curse of the Bambino', an ancient curse against the Red Sox baseball team who sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees and have never since won the World Series. This year included.
Over this past summer the sign was replaced. Not more than two days later so was the graffiti. Even as a non-fan I find this excellent!
