In the area for an upcoming preseason friendly at Gillette Stadium, AS Roma soccer players took a tour of TD Garden on Wednesday, and they had Isaiah Thomas a little concerned about his shoes.
The team, which has ownership ties to Boston, toured the Garden as they viewed the banners and bought souvenirs at the gift shop. The most interesting moment in the tour occurred when they reached the Celtics locker room. And Thomas, the Celtics’ star, inevitably attracted the most interest around his locker.
Their intrusion had him (jokingly) pleading for the safety of his shoes:
Don't take my shoes LOL RT @celtics: .
