T2 Tickets Sports Museum Family Membership to Sports Museum One Family Membership - The concept of a sports museum has been thought of by every sports fan who ever lived in New England. Nowhere else in the country is the passion for sports so intense, the tradition as deep, or the shared experience as broad. As a Boston taxi driver once remarked, "A sports museum in Boston is like an art museum in Paris." At The Sports Museum, we celebrate the character of Boston sports -- the unique brand of teamwork, determination, responsibility, courage, fairness, and other qualities of character possessed by our teams and athletes that make Boston "The Greatest Sports City in America." Equally important, we use this distinctly rich heritage to help build character in kids so that they can stand strong in the face of drugs, violence, and other dangers. 1 1 50 25
