Movie Night At Fenway Park 2018: 'Jurassic Park'

FENWAY, MA — Yep, you can get your peanuts, cracker jacks hot dogs ahead of the movie, folks. It's that time of year. Summer means Movie Night at Fenway Park. This year you can watch “Jurassic Park” at Fenway on Tuesday, August 14.

The ballpark will show the 1993 Steven Spielberg classic on the center field videoboard in honor of the movie's 25th anniversary. Wait? It's 25 years old already? But weren't you just in the movie theatre hiding behind your mom watching it just yesterday? Nope. Time to share it with the kids.

Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for kids 12 and under. Season ticket holders get in free. And yes, there will be concessions.

Fans will be seated in the lower seating bowl and along the first base line. The Fenway gates will open at 6:45 p.m. and the movie starts at 8 p.m. It's become somewhat of a tradition for those attending to be allowed to walk along the warning track before the movie starts. Speaking of tradition;

The movie at Fenway started in 2013, after Red Sox fans and players watched the coming-of-age baseball comedy "The Sandlot" during a three-hour rain delay of a game with the Minnesota Twins while on the road that May. Later that August, they started rolling at the home field.

Here's a running tally of what's been seen since then:

2017 -"A League of Their Own"

2016- "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"

2015 - "Fever "Pitch"

2014- "Ghostbusters"

2013- "The Sandlot"

The movie:

To recap the movie for those who are maybe from Mars, in Steven Spielberg's massive blockbuster, paleontologists Alan Grant (Sam Neill) and Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) and mathematician Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) are among a select group chosen to tour an island theme park populated by dinosaurs created from prehistoric DNA. While the park's mastermind, billionaire John Hammond (Richard Attenborough), assures everyone that the facility is safe, they find out otherwise when various ferocious predators break free and go on the hunt.

Gates Open: 6:45 p.m.

Back in 2013, reporters asked the Red Sox's John Lackey if he remembered ever having to have a 3 hour rain delay before, and what they did during the break in Minnesota:
