Saturday featured multiple college football games at Major League Baseball parks, including the Fenway Bowl between the North Carolina Tar Heels and the UConn Huskies at Fenway Park in Boston.
And while football games at baseball parks can be a cool novelty, sometimes there are unexpected obstacles. Literally.
MORE FENWAY BOWL: What’s at stake between UConn and North Carolina?
Fans watching the Tar Heels and Huskies face off in the Fenway Bowl on Saturday were treated to less than clear views with a foul pole — what looks like the Pesky Pole — at the ballpark obstructing shots of the field.
Not great, not great.

And, as college football fans on social media noted, hasn’t been a problem for past Fenway Bowl broadcasts.
Looks like the two previous Fenway Bowls used a different angle that was weird but DID NOT INCLUDE A GIANT YELLOW POLE BLOCKING THE VIEW OF THE GAME

It’s unclear why exactly the foul pole is an issue this year and not in the past, but college football fans didn’t love it and had jokes about Fenway’s obstructions, of course.

It's good that the Fenway Bowl broadcast gives the home viewer the true Fenway fan experience of having a pole blocking part of their view. pic.twitter.com/p6a08gz8Bp

The Pesky Pole obstructing the camera at the Fenway Bowl is so stupid yet so funny. Couldn’t tell there was a receiver in motion and then the play went right in front of it. pic.twitter.com/DHqnNxusyi
