I spent the night inside MIT’s student-led, pro-Palestinian encampment, two days before the university unsuccessfully ordered protesters to collect their belongings and leave. Read about it here - https://t.co/GGBSma38Um via @BostonGlobe

Just after 1 a.m., crowds had cleared. One passionate fans hung from a light pole, hoping to entertain stragglers by looping his sneakers over the green Staniford Street sign. @BostonGlobe #celtics #game5

The party continues outside the Garden with a few flips, several fireworks, and dozens of officers. Police remain largely uninterested in the gathering, keeping their focus on protecting Causeway Street from potential crowds. @BostonGlobe #celtics #game5

[Lila Hempel-Edgers @hempeledgers]

And the Celtics have done it again. Young fans leap with joy as the winning buzzer sounds, witnessing a championship victory for the first time ever. @BostonGlobe #celtics #game5

Here from Vermont, Gabe Strand says Celtics fans are the best fans in the NBA. “Everyone’s so zoned in,” he said. “It’s the best part.” @BostonGlobe #celtics #game5

Halfway through the second quarter, fans are on their feet in honor of Red Sox hall of famer Tim Wakefield. @BostonGlobe #celtics #game5

[Lila Hempel-Edgers @hempeledgers]

Celtics fans scream for their team minutes into the second quarter. The Garden is packed and the crowd is louder then ever, especially when Jayson Tatum is involved @BostonGlobe #celtics #game5

[Lila Hempel-Edgers @hempeledgers]

As the first wave of Celtics fans flood the Garden ahead of tonight’s 8:37 p.m. tipoff, excitement is already in the air. Each seat is draped in a complimentary t-shirt, each with a simple message scrawled across the front - “WHATEVER IT TAKES” @BostonGlobe #celtics #game5

The energy has dampened at TD Garden and fans are streaming out of the watch party. At the end of the third quarter, the Celtics are down by more than 30. https://t.co/lTI4pe6Oie

Minutes before tipoff, fans rally from the Garden’s second watch party of the week. Many say Friday’s packed house looks just like a regular home game, minus the team. #celtics #watchparty

[Lila Hempel-Edgers @hempeledgers]

And the first of two sold-out TD Garden watch parties ends with a bang. $18 tickets brought fans from near and far, many of whom stepped into the arena for the first time ever on Wednesday night. ☘️☘️☘️ #celtics #watchparty

Following an early morning police sweep of the pro-Palestinian encampment that has occupied MIT’s Kresge Lawn for over two weeks, protesters took to the streets Friday with chants of “Drop the charges, drop the lies!”

[Lila Hempel-Edgers @hempeledgers]

MIT’s pro-Palestinian protesters marched from Vassar Street to Kresge Lawn after police violently arrested several students for blocking the exit of a university parking garage Thursday afternoon.

A moment of tension at the entrance of the pro-Palestinian encampment at MIT after an agitator refused to stop recording student protesters eating dinner with university professors early Tuesday night.
