Warriors Superfan Fieri Hilariously Mistaken for Celtics Fan originally appeared in NBC Sports Bay Area
Guy Fieri sat courtside in Garden TD for Game 1 of the 2024 Eastern Conference Finals between the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers – but make no mistake, the superstar chef and Bay Area icon remains loyal to his beloved Warriors.
During a interview with MassLive Before the start of Game 1 in Boston, Fieri was incorrectly labeled as a Celtics fan by the outlet. (h/t SFGATE)
The Food Network star was quick to remind everyone where his basketball loyalty lies, reaffirming his Warriors fandom with a post on X, the site formerly known as Twitter.
I am all @guerreiros all the time!!
But you can’t say no to floor seats in Boston! https://t.co/96JyMF3xIT– Mayor Guy Fieri (@GuyFieri) May 25, 2024
Fieri’s long-standing ties to Golden State include an interesting tidbit that he helped recruit Kevin Durant to the Bay Area in July 2016.
The well-known chef can regularly be seen sitting courtside at the Chase Center and was a frequent visitor to Oracle Arena before the Warriors’ move to San Francisco.
One of the best Father’s Days ever. Games 7!!

During an interview on “NBA Gametime” in April 2023, Fieri explained his unshakable belief that as long as Steph Curry is healthy, his Warriors have a chance to be championship contenders.
Although Golden State ended the 2023-24 NBA season on a negative note after missing the playoffs, you can be sure that Fieri will be there front and center when Golden State makes another push for championship glory in the next year.
