There are all kinds of sports fans. Diehard fans. Fairweather fans. Casual fans. What type of fan are you, and more specifically, what type of Celtics fan are you? Let’s have a little fun and talk about your love of the Celtics based on your zodiac sign.

In general, Celtics fans are proud. And good or bad, they’re going to be there for the team. They may talk a little trash about them, but at the end of the day, they’ll be cheering them on. Don’t believe me, just ask a Celtics fan.

What do NBA players have to say about Celtics fans?

The Atlantic anonymously polled NBA players and asked them which team had the best fans. And guess what Celtics fans? It’s you!

The Celtics got 18% of the vote, beating out the Sacramento (12.1%). Golden State tied with New York fans at 9.7%. Not so fast though…

Boston also ranked high in the “worst fans” part of the poll, finishing 5th behind Charlotte, Detroit, Washington, and Utah.

As one anonymous player said – “They talk crazy s*** there.”

What to expect from the Celtics this season

Our expert sports guy Leroy has some thoughts on the new season.

“The 2023-2024 season is here and there’s well deserved excitement about the Celtics. Yes, they’ve been a contender for some years now, and even made it to the NBA finals in 2022, but at the end of the day they haven’t been able to win it all. However, this season feels different, and here’s why.

 

The additions of Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday can’t be praised enough. Sam Cassell as an assistant coach is a good look because of his championship winning history, and his no-nonsense attitude. Former players like Paul Pierce, Rondo, Eddie House, and others hanging around is a positive for building the Celtics brotherhood. The vibe hovering in and around this team is all about getting it done this season!

 

The biggest obstacle they must overcome is if they’ll show poise and grit when times get tough. That has been their biggest downfall, and until they prove otherwise, it’s fair to doubt them. 

 

At the end of the day this is perhaps the most talented team in the NBA, but talent isn’t enough. From game 1 until hopefully hoisting the championship trophy, they must remain aggressive, show no fear, and treat teams like they don’t belong on the court with them. I believe they will!”

What kind of Celtics fan are you? We looked to the stars for answers. Here’s your Celtics “fan type” based on your zodiac sign.

  • Aries - The "ready for battle" Celtics fan

    Aries is a sign that’s always ready for a challenge. They don’t let setbacks keep them down, and are determined leaders. When it comes to cheering on the Celtics, Aries fans are the ones that get everyone together for the game. They have the face paint and green wigs ready to go. Aries Celtics fans want things done quickly and efficiently. Winning the series in 7 is not what they’re looking for. They want that series done quick, fast, and in a hurry. You might want to avoid an Aries after a loss. They will not take it well.

  • Taurus - The "bougie and boundless" Celtics fan

    Taurus Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    Let’s face it, Taurus likes luxury and comfort. You most likely won’t find them cheering from the rafters. Taurus fans are about that luxury box life. Endless food and drinks, private bathroom, and comfortable seating without other people crowding you and dropping beer and popcorn on you. BUT, Taurus fans are probably the most loyal fans out there. They stick with the Celtics during the ups and downs. Even when they break their hearts. They’ll be hurt if they lose, but their motto is, “there’s always next season.”

  • Gemini - The "Big Game" Fans

    Gemini Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    If you end up next to a Gemini at a game, know that you will not be able to just sit and watch the game. Gemini loves conversation and will probably want to talk in-between plays and during time outs. They’re very curious and want to know more about the players than just their game stats. Slightly nosey, they want to know all the gossip about their favorite players. Anything from who Jason Tatum is dating, to what he was like in high school. They’re fun fans who want to be wherever the victory party’s at. They may miss the regular season games, but they’ll definitely be there for the playoffs!

  • Cancer - The "Old Faithful" Fans

    Cancers are homebodies who are some of the best nurturers of the zodiac world. They’re also very loyal which makes them great Celtics fans. They’ll be with them even through the losses, which makes them some of the green’s most faithful fans. Because they’re nurturers, they care deeply about the players on both a professional and personal level. They’ll also have great food at their game day parties.

  • Leo - The "Celebrity" Fans

    Ahhh Leo. Gotta love ’em. Leos love the spotlight, and their fiery personalities bring the spark to every game. Leos are the Celtics fans you’ll see dressed up at the game. Whether it’s in face paint and a big green wig, or a sparkly green outfit, Leos are as much a part of the game as the players. Don’t be surprised if you see a Leo Celtics fan on the red carpet before the game. They come to see and be seen!

  • Virgo - The "Unofficial Coach" Fan

    Virgos are practical, logical, and hate to lose. They’re competitive and perfectionists at heart. Virgos like to process things, so if the Celtics lose and you want to know why, ask a Virgo. They may even send you a spreadsheet. While that may seem like “doing too much” for a fan, it’s because they do believe that recognizing the problems is the only way to solve it. In that way, Virgo Celtics fans are pretty damn faithful.

  • Libra - The "High Drama" Fan

    Libra Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    Libras are team players and crave balance and harmony. They love attention and are also people-pleasers. That said, Libras are interesting as Celtics fans. They will be engaged in every single game, but will definitely talk sh*t about the mistakes the team made. They’ll also be right back in their seat or in front of the TV when the next game comes on. They may be upset about the last loss, but the next day they’ll be wearing their Celtics green.

  • Scorpio - The "Profoundly Passionate" Fan

    Scorpio Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    If you know a Scorpio, here’s what you already know. They’re extremely passionate, ambitious, and committed. They’ll be the Celtics fan screaming at the TV, pacing back and forth, and stress eating during the game. They want what they want, and that’s a W. Scorpios are also emotional and intuitive, and if they tell you the Celtics are going to win, they’re going to win.

  • Sagittarius - The "Larger than Life" Fan

    Sagittarius Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    Sagittarius is one of the most unique signs in the zodiac. They believe in the motto, “Go big or go home,” and that includes their allegiance to the Celtics. Like celebrity Sagittarius Nicki Minaj, Jay-Z, Britney Spears, and Miley Cyrus, Sag Celtics fans are passionate and optimistic. They’re hopeful for their team, but also forgiving in their losses. They’ll also be some of the loudest cheerleaders at the game.

  • Capricorn - The "Restrained and Determined" Fan

    Capricorn Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    Capricorn’s motto is “keep moving forward.” They’re ambitious and relentless, and that shines through in their life as a Celtics fan. Capricorn’s may come off as conservative and restrained at first, but once they tap into that passion for the game, look out. That said, you may not see that passion in games 1 or 2, but if they get to a game 7, Capricorns may be the ones on the top of the bar leading the cheers.

  • Aquarius - The "Opinionated" Fan

    Aquarius Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    Those born under Aquarius are thinkers. They’re not overly emotional, love mental stimulation, and are visionaries. As Celtics fans, they will be watching the game. They’re big fans and will always be rooting for their team. But, if they lose, they’ll be upset but won’t dwell on it too much. But if you ask them, they WILL tell you all of their thoughts on the game.

  • Pisces - The "Reassuring" Fan

    Pisces Zodiac Sign. Abstract night sky background

    Pisces are emotional, empathetic, and sensitive. As a Celtics fan, you want to have a Pisces in your group. They’ll be the one to hold your hand and console you after a big loss. They’ll reassure you that everything is going to be alright, even when you think it won’t be. They’re very romantic, so they will also romanticize their relationship with the team, always believing that they will get the job done!
