Greg Stiemsma Hangs Out With Wrestler Mick Foley After Celtics Game, Says 'He's the Man!'
NESN.com
The New England Sports Network gets in its Time Machine, dials up "November 2012," and visits the future home of the Brooklyn Nets.
Greg Stiemsma had a nice game against the New Jersey Nets on Saturday night, but it was what happened after the game that had him tweeting with excitement.
Stiemsma, fresh off a six-point, nine-rebound performance in Boston's 94-82 victory, tweeted a photo of himself hanging out with wrestler Mick Foley on the court.
The Celtics center tweeted, "I got to meet Mick Foley after the game. He's the man!"
Foley, of course, had been known by many aliases throughout his professional wrestling career, including Mankind, Cactus Jack and Dude Love. And while it appears he was attending the game simply as himself on Saturday night at Barclays Center, he did feature a hint of Dude Love, sporting what looks to be a purple tie-dye shirt under his brown blazer.
NoLandGrab: The photo from the future gives a preview of the "crowds" the woeful Nets will draw.
