Ice skating on the frog pond.

When I lived in Back Bay we’d go late at night, after the bars closed. We all owned skates just for that, and we’d stop home and get them then hop the boards at like 3am. Cops never bothered us but the stupid Zamboni chased us off more than once. Kinda weird to Zamboni at 3:00am, but it probably doubled as security because it worked lol.

The real move here is to skip the Frog pond and skate on the pond in the Public Garden

Does it need to be sub freezing for a few days?

The current forecast has just a few hours on Thursday that will be above freezing. Anyway, I won't be out on the lagoon Saturday morning.
It was frozen over once already this season. And it has been cool enough that the ground won't keep the water warm for as long.

The ice skating rink in larz Anderson is excellent

Hmm, I'm honestly not sure how I feel about skating here.
I love the location and charm of Frog Pond and absolutely worth going if you've never been. However, the skating experience itself is pretty subpar in my opinion...
The rink is so tiny that makes it impossible to avoid other skaters.
I might just be biased because every single time I rent skates, the skates feel so worn and don't fit properly.
Wish we also had warming huts or even a larger enclosed building to warm up / drop off gear like many other cities have.
