Big Papi Kickin’ Back In Celtics Green
First it was Tim Wakefield, Manny Delcarmen, Jacoby Ellsbury and Clay Buchholz. Then Tito Francona. Then Kevin Youkilis. Then Alex Cora. And now it’s Big Papi’s turn. It seems all the cool kids are hanging out at Celtics games these days.
David Ortiz was at the Celtics-Warriors game on Wednesday night, rockin’ a #34 Paul Pierce jersey and a Celtics hat. He was interviewed on the jumbotron above the court, and a loud chorus of “PAPI! PAPI! PAPI!” cheers broke out.
He also tried his hand at the roundball, of the large orange variety– and attempted a three point shot from the corner of the court at halftime… which missed the basket by several feet. It’s a good thing he has that small white roundball to fall back on.
And here’s a quick video clip of Papi assisting Lucky the Leprechaun with a stunt dunk- much like Tito Francona did last week:
