Red Sox balloon hunt and ticket giveaway
Add Caption
The Red Sox will place 100 balloons in Boston neighborhoods today, and each one has two tickets to a game inside.
Five of the balloons will have a pair of tickets for Friday's 100th anniversary game.
The balloon blitz began at 7:30 a.m., and runs until 3:30 p.m. No more than 10 balloons will be out at any time, according to a news release about the event.
If you find one of the balloons, please tweet @BostonDotCom and use the hashtag #soxballoon.
Happy hunting! Scroll down to see which lucky Sox fans have found the tickets.
