It’s almost that time of the year again, Bostonians. Football season is around the corner, for some reason Halloween candy is already on display, and the Co-Eds are flocking back into the city. Storrowing Season is coming!
Urban Dictionary defines ‘storrowing’ as “putting a 12’6″ truck under a 10’6″ bridge. Common in Boston MA. Storrowing Season is usually during late August and Early Sept when College kids that cannot read attempt to navigate their way through the corn maze roadways of Boston”.
While we wait for the city to change the name from Storrow to Sorrow, let’s reflect on a few recent Storrowing incidents photographed around Boston.
