Fiallen Game 3
Like many games of late, the C’s start wicked slow, finally make a big run to make it a game (and exciting) and then lose. We had a great time at the game though, mostly. A few Tebow fans behind us had to be reminded that they were at an NBA game, and if they weren’t into basketball (why were they here?), they should realize they were in Patriot country. They left early.
We bought these tickets back before we found out Peyton wasn’t playing this season – so it wasn’t as big a game as we had hoped, but we had great fun with Gary and Daniel. Our seats were in the very last row. It was actually pretty awesome – still a great view of the field to watch plays develop, and no one behind us to spill on us. A W is a W, and we had a good time. Even our Colts fan, Gary.
We went to the Patriots first preseason game of the year. We had lots of fun with Gary and Daniel, a pregaming a little in the parking lot and watching a blowout.
We just saw an amazing win (94-71) tonight.
Before some of our pictures – mostly a super charged hype machine full of quotes dogging the Celtics – here is what will be most remembered from Game 3:
We witnessed what may end up being the play of the playoffs. It will definitely be in the Celtics’ highlight reel for decades to come.
It was an amazing night to be in the Garden.
And onto pictures of some warm ups and a shot of their super star…
And the hype machine:
And Paul Pierce’s quotes from the end of Game 2, wanted the crowd to be crazy (which we were!).
And so the Boston portion of the series began:
Score after the 1st quarter:
Score after the 2nd quarter:
Score after the 3rd quarter:
GINO!!!! (With 5 1/2 minutes left to play!) AND Wes Welker got up did the Gino dance! This is after previously being shown on the Jumbotron, standing and waving for the fans, THEN running in place and doing some jukes, showing the progress on his surgically repaired knee. So awesome. Wes doing the full on Gino dance was the icing on the cake!
CELTICS WIN!
