My tax refund helped fund my very first trip to a Celtic game IN Boston! It's ironic that I rode the train to the game, because I was basically a train wreck during my first visit. Fortunately, I went back for Game 2 and was able to hold it together emotionally a little better. Here are a few highlights that brought on the waterworks.
* Riding the train to the game and seeing almost the exact view that is featured in Larry Bird's highlight video in NBA Superstars I. Also, as we got close to the Garden some of the fans on the train started the Let's Go Celtic chant.
* I was SO overwhelmed in the pro shop. I've never seen so much Celtic gear, I'm pretty sure I hyperventilated trying to take it all in. I left with three shirts, a flag, and promotional signs and balloons.
*The Pre-Game Video on the Jumbo tron featured the Celtics greatest play off moments. When they showed the Larry Bird video of him fracturing his cheek bone against the Pacers and then coming back to win the epic battle against Chuck Person. Verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves.
* Looking up and seeing those 16 championship banners and the retired numbers in person was also a tad emotional for me.
This was such a surreal experience for me and I can't wait to go back!

About Me
- Sulli Fabulous
- Sulli Fabulous by Boom Boom The Great "I have never met anyone besides Sulli who tells you how she feels about you by using fashion designer references: 'I love you more than Michael Kors spring line.' No one and I mean NO one wears a scarf/shawl with more style. She does not mean to but she knows all there is to know about Hollywood, Sports, and Fashion. She taught me about stalking and the true meaning of 'The Eagle has landed.' Sulli is so good at tennis it is like a cat playing with the mouse for hours before she polishes the opponent off. I know this by experience (Central Park, 2009 Boomshulli Reuinion) When nervous, her neck becomes blotchy red, especially when fine waiters are touching her while giving directions. I have never met anyone who owns more make up brushes. Her collection looks more like a craft store display. Sulli is so good at make-up, she labeled my new MAC make-up step 1, 2, & 3. She loves red cupcakes that taste like chocolate. Most of all Sulli Fabulous is really Great. My new reference leading into the next decade is 'Sulli the Great, and she really is Fabulous.' " Thanks Laurel for the description!
