It's winter time in Boston and that means it's Celtics time. The people of Boston are so lucky to have this spectacle on their doorstep but Marguerite and Jude are trying their best to see as many games as possible. So far this winter 4 games have been watched. As you can see how close Captain Paul Pierce is to the camera in this pic the cheap seats have been ditched in favour of class lower level seats.
Before the Celtics vs Philadelphia 76ers game Marguerite and Lindsay enjoy the pre-game atmosphere in Sullivan's Tap which is just across the road from the Boston Gaaahden.
Kevin Garnett leads the team out of the tunnel.
This young fella is called Daylon and maybe once a game and during a break in play, the camera will go on him. He then jumps up and starts dancing to the music. He's become a bit of a celebrity now and was even featured in an article in the Boston Globe newspaper. His mother is sitting there beside him smiling. She used to discourage Daylon from doing this but he just kept doing it regardless. For a seven-year-old he can certainly pull the moves.
Ray Allen (20) shoots while Rajon Rondo (9) looks on. The seats for this game were great as you can see here. You can see the Celtics bench just there at bottom of pic.
'Hey Eddie, what the craic with the big white socks rolled all the way up man, they make your wee short legs look even shorter, catch yourself on man, you're making us look silly', Paul Pierce (34) tells Eddie House (50) midgame.
Celtics games are so much more than sport, it's pure entertainment with the whole crowd joining in. If only atmospheres at all sports could be like this.
Rajon Rondo is one of the Celtics best players and watching him play is worth the ticket price alone. This pic was taken at the Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks game. This time the seat was right in behind the basket, class!
Don't try this at home folks! Marguerite reckons she is going to try and get on the Celtics cheerleading squad next season. Wha?
Below are a couple of class wee short videos taken by Jude at the Milwaukee Bucks game. They are: 1 - Marguerite singing 'Burn baby Burn, disco inferno'. 2 - Guns n Roses 'Welcome to the Jungle' is played to start every game. 3 - Pre-game atmosphere as players pump up crowd. 4 - Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Rasheed Wallace shooting before game. 5 - The Celtics enter the Gaaahden.
