What You'll Do
It’s game time—and you’re heading to Boston to kick off basketball season with the Celtics! The 2018 season will begin with a bang as the Celtics take on Philadelphia at the TD Garden. But the real reason it’s so special is because you’ll be there to cheer them on… all before the game even starts! You’ll head into The Garden extra early with VIP courtside access to watch the boys in green warm up. And before you head to your awesome seats, you’ll make your way to center court and snap a photo for the ages. Who needs luck when you’ve got this? Flights and hotel are on us.
No donation or payment is necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes.
