Meanwhile, we’ve busted out our calculators to crunch the staggering stats and asked ourselves: what could $6.1 billion buy us as Celtics fans? Here’s the score.
Based on today’s average price to attend a Celtics game for a party of four — $419.47 — 14,542,160 groups of four could hit up TD Garden.
But you’ll wanna live a little: You could rent an $8,000 game day suite at TD Garden 762,500 times.
You’ll need new swag: You could buy 50,833,333 Jayson Tatum replica jerseys.
And you’ll need to keep the ballers happy: In July 2024, Tatum’s five-year extension contract cost the team a whopping $314 million — you could renew it 19.4 times.
