Tonight, we did something new on Thanksgiving Eve. We attended a Celtics game.
Now, with this being an off year because of Jayson Tatum's injury, the team has been average at best. As a result, I didn't expect much from this game. Along with that, the team was playing the Detroit Pistons, who were on a 13 game winning streak. I assumed it would be 14 by the end of the night.
Because it was a release day, I zipped home. The game was an NBA cup game, so it had a 5 PM tip off...which was wild!
We had our foray to Outback, like we do most Thanksgiving Eves and then went to the game. We arrived with about 20 minutes to spare. We had seats behind the basket on the team bench side. The seats were great.
However, even better than the seats was the excitement of the game. It was the best game I had been to since the Celtics played the Pistons in Double OT years ago. The game went back and forth with multiple lead changes, horrific officiating, and a raucous crowd.
The Celtics pulled off the win in the end...which meant we weren't leaving early like normal.
Great game!!
