Boston Celtics fan Jeremy Fry became a legend when he busted out an unforgettable dance during a game. It all started when the arena’s camera landed on him, and instead of just waving or smiling like most people, Fry went all in. The moment Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ On A Prayer” blasted through the speakers, he grabbed his chance to shine.
At first, he just sang along, but within seconds, he was completely lost in the music. He jumped, spun, played air guitar, and rocked out as if he was actually onstage with Bon Jovi himself. His energy was electric—he wasn’t just dancing, he was performing.
The crowd absolutely loved it. Fans cheered, sang along, and some even joined him in dancing. As Fry made his way down the aisle, people reached out to high-five him and hug him. His wild, carefree moves struck a chord with everyone in the stadium. It was clear—he was just having pure, unfiltered fun, and that energy was contagious.
And it didn’t stop there. The moment was caught on video and quickly spread like wildfire. People couldn’t get enough of Fry’s fearless dancing, and soon, even Bon Jovi himself noticed. The band uploaded the video to their official YouTube channel, making Fry’s performance an instant classic. To this day, the video has been watched over 16 million times!
Fans online were blown away by his enthusiasm. One person commented, “It must feel amazing to just let go and not care what anyone thinks. Way to go, young man!” Another said, “I’ve watched this so many times over the years, and it still makes me smile. This guy is a treasure.”
Fry’s epic performance happened during the Boston Celtics’ 2008-2009 season—a season that was already historic for the team. The Celtics had an incredible start, winning 19 games in a row, which set a new record for the franchise. While the team couldn’t defend their championship title that year, their explosive beginning might have set the perfect mood for Fry’s unforgettable dance.
In an interview later that season, Fry talked about his love for the Celtics. He shared that he saw his first game when he was just seven years old but became a hardcore fan again during the 2007-2008 season—when the Celtics took down their longtime rivals, the Los Angeles Lakers, to win the championship.
Over the years, plenty of fans have gone viral for dancing at games, but Fry’s performance is the original, the one that started it all. Some even call it the greatest fan moment of all time. And honestly? It’s hard to argue with that.
