Halloween Weekend

We went to Gary and Daniel’s to share our pony keg of Bell‘s Oberon and to carve our pumpkins.  Josh recreated his childhood friend, Mr. Gourdman – with a dangling eyeball innovation.  And Jeannette showed her Celtic’s Fandom with a Shaq-O’Lantern.  It was a multi-day effort.

Before we left Gary and Daniel’s house, Mr. Gourdman tried on a few different hats!

Jeannette had a bit more work to do.  Magellan helped.

Now we’ve got the starting 5 on the back side!

They glow!

We love that one eye dangles from its optic nerve!

These eyeballs are “18”s

With our awesome view:

And now with our brand new patio lights turned on.  We strung those this weekend too!

W – Celtics (105) v Knicks (101)

Tonight was our first regular season attendance.  Some fun things we saw:

  • The new hype machine (didn’t quite get the first few seconds on the video – we’ll do better next game)
  • The new intros (Josh really misses KG‘s old yell)
  • Before the game Rondo received awards for leading the league in steals last year and for being 1st team All-Defense.
  • Rondo‘s career high assists (24).  This is second highest for a Celtics record (Cousy had 28).  See all 24 here.
  • Rondo had a triple-double 24-10-10, and the 24 assists are a NBA record in a triple-double (tied with Isiah Thomas (and his was in a 2OT game).
  • We saw Baby sing Tik Tok – it was amazing.  You too can enjoy it, here.
  • We saw The Captain bring down 14 boards (the first time since KG and Ray came to town).
  • A WIN! (105-101)

We love Grandpa Celtic!

And so do these guys! They dressed up as him for Halloween!!

Rondo getting his awards

We’ll get a full video next game – but this was good!

Our new intro:

The Garden was loud – the ticket holders in front of us sit there with their ears plugged. 🙂 Poor guys.

Despite letting the Knicks keep it close, the Captain had ice in his veins and closed it out.

24-10-10!!!

And we did feel welcome!

TNKarving at Baker House

Tonight we revisited our old haunts and were the guest judges for the annual TNKarving at MIT‘s Baker House. We had a good time catching up with the House Masters and GRTs and talking with students.
