How will you watch the Season Opener?

[Cman]

Reclining at the start; sitting upright in the middle; standing with 2 minutes to go; rejoicing at the buzzer.

Nicely put.
I'll have a couple pints of beer and some pizza, remote in hand, feet kicked up on a small table.

Last year I was watching the game from the balcony (which was awesome). This year I am in Sydney working and traveling and I have a little dilemma with this game. The game is on at 10:30 AM on WED and i pretty much have 2 options here: 1. I can skip work get drunk and watch the game. The positives are pretty self explanatory here. Negatives are that I am trying to save up money to do more traveling soon and I am pretty broke at the moment so every bit of money really helps. This would also be a double whammy because I will not get money from my work and will spend money on top of that at the bar. 2nd option: Go to work, watch live updates on yahoosports, go on the game thread on CB, and perhaps watch a bit of it on grainy pirate station. To me, this option would be pretty depressing considering it's opening night and it's against the Cavs. Also there aren't a ton of games broadcast here so it's not like I get to see that many anyway. What should i do?
There is a possible wild card option if they happen to replay the game that night in which case i will have to avoid the internet for the whole day........

Sadly, since I don't have cable, I'll probably be at a friends house   with some soda and snacks

more focussing on the season opener and not the home opener; anyone else going to be at Cask'N'Flagon? Would be good to see a nice Celtics crowd there

That doesn't sound sad at all. That sounds like one of the best ways to spend the night possible

You should definitely go across the street to Game On. I've always had better experiences there. There are more T.V's, bigger T.V's and they have a good audio system too. It will be a Tuesday night too so it shouldn't be overly crowded or annoying.

Sports bar in Pittsburgh. There will probably be a mix of Cavs/Celtics fans. 

Translation: Celtics fans and guys who like Lebron.

TP. For the future, this is what I will call all Cavs fans: "Guys who like LeBron".
Priceless.

i will be sitting about 15 rows behind the celts bench 

Thats sick!! If you dont mind me asking, how much did those puppies set you back?

i got season tix there....so its a lot of puppies

When my wife and I come up to Boston annually, we always sit in your section, DL.  Once in the club seats against Denver in Nov 07 (which she loved) and once 3 rows behind the C's bench last year against Toronto (the Calderon game) with our backs against the hockey wall (which I loved).  During the Finals, unfortunately, I had to sit under the basket down the other end behind Wyc which is not as great as the vibe of the Sith Section. 

I smell a future CelticsBlog Festivus when we're up there again.

Alone in my room, complete darkness. A cig in hand and a coffee in the other. I'll be twirling the cig in my hand and laughing like a crazy man when the Celtics beat the Cavs.

And for the home opener, I'll be driving down to Portland, ME and waiting for my friend to come back from the game.. At which point I'll hit him in the head with a metal Louisville Slugger for not inviting me when he'll likely have a spare (Court side, mind you) ticket.

So I assume you're from Maine? (I'm in Gorham). If so, will you be going to see the Red Claws at all?

It's a Throwback Jersey I got online ... it was either the Celtics store or the NBA store ...  I got it 3 or 4 years ago and it's made by NBA/Majestic (Both labels). It's an authentic throwback short-sleeve baseball jersey, light blue with black trim, large white embroidered letters on front "CELTICS" and on back "PIERCE" over very large numbers "34" ... I checked the Majestic website and it was no longer there, so I assume it's discontinued ... I have never seen another one, even at the Garden, (I look each time I go), but I get a ton of positive comments about it, mostly "where can I get one?". I've been telling people to check the Majestic site, but it seems now that was not a good direction to send them in. It wasn't cheap at the time, but as I say, I'd never seen anything like it, so it was worth the extra bucks to me. I don't get a lot of jerseys, so when I do, I like things that are unique and authentic, and even quality-wise, this is the best jersey I've ever owned. I will do some surfing and see if I can find one so I can give you the link.
