Dave Portnoy has become something of a fixture at the Boston Celtics‘ games in recent weeks. It was not that long ago when he turned up to see the Celtics beat the Philadelphia 76ers. The Celtics prevailed then, 117-107 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. They also won in their most recent meeting, 125-119 at the TD Garden.
At the same venue, the Celtics beat the New York Knicks 133-123 tonight. Dave Portnoy was present there with Elio Imbornone, Mr. Ice himself. While Portnoy was engrossed in the action on the court, Imbornone split his attention between the court and Rogers Place in Edmonton, Canada.

After taking to X, Dave Portnoy shared a post where he pulled his best friend’s leg. Portnoy shared a five-second clip of Imbornone watching the Edmonton Oilers hosting the Minnesota Wild on his phone. They occupied courtside seats at the TD Garden. He wrote, tagging his friend’s X handle in the post, “Wanna go to Celts game, @elio82?”
