The Maine Red Claws, presented by Quirk Chevrolet, announced today that Celtics legend Tommy Heinsohn will be making his second trip in two years to Portland, Maine. As part of the Red Claws "Pick-A-Seat" day at the Portland Expo, Tommy will be at the Portland Exp on September 25th to sign autographs and pose for pictures at absolutely no cost.
Earlier this year, Tommy made the trip uptah' Maine and took part in the Red Claws fan appreciation night. During this event fans got to meet one of the biggest icons in Celtics history. Heinsohn is an eight-time NBA champion, and a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame.
“It is very rare that you get the opportunity to meet an NBA legend,” said Red Claws President and General Manager Jon Jennings. “We are honored that he would come to Maine to help us launch the second season of the Maine Red Claws and give our fans this opportunity."
The annual event is an opportunity for Red Claws’ fans to check out the Portland Expo, including the parquet floor, as well as for new and prospective season ticket holders to check out the view from their seats. The event will be held from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM, with Tommy Heinsohn making an appearance from 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM. Gobeil’s Furniture Galleries will raffle off a recliner during the event.
This is a great opportunity to get out and support the Boston Celtics D-League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws, and at the same time you will have the chance to meet one of the biggest icons in Celtics history. Sounds like a good time if you ask me!
