Clearly you’ve never seen Cheers, where could be better?
Norm would even let the FMvP sit on his legendary stool. That is a win win over any bar in Miami. Didn't you get the memo?

Don't see the issue.

They will be back to party in a few days for the parade.

I was going to joke about how the weather in Miami is awful...but it's actually cooler in Miami than Boston right now. So yeah...I'd leave the Boston heat for Miami's cooler weather + ocean breeze.

Nobody parties in Boston lol why is this surprising? One of the main reasons Boston sports teams have been so successful in recent years is because there is very little distractions there apart from sports. So players are able to just focus on their sport and that’s it.

Ask any of the Celtics fans here, even they will tell you that Boston is not a place anyone would go to party or celebrate anything.

Nobody has ever heard anybody say “I'm going to Boston on vacation” and there’s good reason for that.

Miami is actually cooler with less unrelenting humidity than the northeast right now.

But its probablt just Eleven. Which is kind of just a **** overrated place.

Heat has owned Boston the past few seasons, kind of a troll job :lol:

Anyhow, had the Florida Panthers won last nite to clinch the Stanley Cup championship (lost to Edmonton Oilers, Panthers now up 3-2) , they would have partied with the Celtics!

You've got all the money in the world and you've just won the title. If the only thing these grown men want is women and parties, maybe a nuclear war between superpowers wouldn't be such a bad thing.

Hmm yeah I wouldn’t go to Boston for the nightlife, unless you are more into bars than clubs.

But nightlife =/= vacationing. Plenty of people come to Boston to vacation. That’s a weird take, but sure, I do agree with your first take.

Understood but I can’t blame them for wanting to chase tail down south beach and party at Space til 5am…it’s basic instinct

People who live in Hawaii go vacation in Vegas. It’s so popular that Vegas is called the 9th island. The Celtics had to spend the whole season in Boston and have to come back for training camp. There’s nothing wrong with a vacation after winning a championship.

I thought the same thing. Summer weather down here is not the same as winter. It is volatile. Most of the national level events that happen here are in the winter and early spring.

The clubs provide shelter from the elements when its too much though.
