When it comes to enjoying Boston Celtics<\/a> games, any age can get in on being a fan — just ask Boston<\/a> Hall of Famer Bob Cousy, who is still known to be an avid follower of the team he won titles with in the late 1950s and early 1960s. And star Celtics forward Jayson Tatum<\/a> is well aware of this fact as well, having recently invited a 92-year-old Boston fan to a Celtics game with courtside seats!<\/p>\n

The guest of honor in question, Francis Wemberly, not only got to take in a Cs game with the best view in the house, she also got to have her photo taken with her favorite NBA player pregame.<\/p>\n
