Local Boston reporters captured video of fans honking their horns, dancing, and even climbing street poles moments after the Celtics big win.
If you think the celebration is over the top ... then you probably weren't watching the game. Trailing by one with less than a second left on the game clock, Derrick White tipped in the go-ahead shot to save the Celtics season.

The Celtics are now on the brink of making NBA history ... becoming the first team to overcome a 3-0 deficit in a playoff series, and the city is feeling it!
No question the Celtics will be feeding off fan energy ... star forward Jayson Tatum told the press, "I've never been so excited to go back to Boston in my life."
Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals will go down in Boston on Monday night.
