The shamrock mowed into Fenway Park to celebrate the Boston Celtics NBA Championship

Not even a little bit of a rain storm could drench the Boston Celtics celebration tonight at Fenway Park as the duck boats came rolling onto the field to Queen’s “We Are The Champions”. Of course, the Boston Red Sox fans assembled stayed in their seats for the entire first part of the celebration ignoring the rain showers as well.

Even Red Sox groundskeeper Dave Mellor got into the act by mowing a shamrock into the grass in center field.

Here is the video goodness of the celebration.
