Celtic Pride

Two devoted Boston Celtics fans, Mike O'Hara and Jimmy Flaherty, build their lives around the team's schedule. When the Celtics reach the NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz, the pair see one obstacle standing between their team and a championship: Lewis Scott, the Jazz's star player and a prolific scorer. Convinced that removing him from the decisive game is the only way to secure a Boston title, they set out to take matters into their own hands. Their plan involves a bar, a great deal of drinking, and an outcome neither of them fully remembers the next morning.

Celtic Pride is a 1996 American comedy directed by Tom DeCerchio and written by Judd Apatow, produced by Roger Birnbaum for Caravan Pictures and Hollywood Pictures. The film runs 91 minutes. Dan Aykroyd plays Jimmy Flaherty and Daniel Stern plays Mike O'Hara, with Damon Wayans as Lewis Scott. Gail O'Grady, Christopher McDonald and Paul Guilfoyle appear in supporting roles, and the credited cast numbers 22. The film was DeCerchio's first feature as director; his next, The Last Role of Charles LeBlanc, came in 2025.

Released on April 19, 1996, the film has drawn little attention on IMDb, where a small number of 12 voters give it 7 out of 10, while on TMDB it holds 5.3 out of 10 from 160 votes, indicating a modest and mixed response from those who have seen it.
