For me the Celtics have played a huge role in my life. Sharing so many games and moments with loved ones. My father and I met and shook Larry Birds hand after Magics enshrinement. Getting to meet Dave Cowens, KC Jones, and Robert Parish together. Meeting Tommy and Cousy after a game in Springfield Ma. I was lucky enough to get to a game at the old Garden with my dad. When they were giving tours before it closed, they said don't step on the court. Yet my dad and I both stepped where Larry hit that three vs the Rockets in 86. I took my wife to a Cs game the year we met and it was a playoff game during Banner 17. I took all our kids to the Garden! When my grandpa passed years ago my dad had already bought us preseason tickets to a game in Amherst. It happened to be the first time JB put on a Cs uniform and had two monster dunks. It was healing after we buried my grandpa. The first jersey I ever bought myself was a Reggie Lewis one and I still have it. This past year we took a bus trip to the Garden and were able to get some shots up on the parquet. Most of my work attire is Celtics related. I'm very thankful for so many Celtic related memories.
Thank you to the Celtics for giving us yet another Banner and memory. Now enjoy this guys, but put in the work next season and go Back to Back!
Celtic Pride! Bleed Green! Banner 18!
