Maybe it's because he heard about MA Men and wanted to experience the Masshattery first hand. Or, more likely, it's because he's in a damn movie shooting here. Either way, Jon "Don Draper" Hamm of Mad Men fame is in Boston right now, causing women to faint, men to glower, and products to be sold. Hamm plays an FBI agent who pursues Ben Affleck's bank-robbing character in the upcoming The Town, adapted from the novel Prince of Thieves (set in Charlestown and written by Chuck Hogan). Hamm and Affleck are reportedly shooting at Fenway through September 27 if you want to hit Lansdowne in hopes of glimpsing some stars, hearing some gunfire, or perhaps even witnessing some of the explosions that Loaded Gun Boston heard might happen.
