President Biden hosted the 2024 NBA champion Boston Celtics at the White House Thursday, but he was either not completely sure of that or making a joke.
While announcing the team's latest championship, Biden turned to the team to make sure they were called the Celtics.
"You're the Celtics, right?" Biden asked the players during a moment in his address. The comment was met with light, but reserved chuckles from some in the crowd.
Biden also joked that he didn't know where the players came from.
"They just showed up. I don’t know where the hell they came from," Biden said.
Later in the speech, Biden appeared to reveal his Secret Service code name. Celtic has been Biden's code name throughout his presidency and even dating back to his vice presidency under Obama, according to Britannica.
"All of you may not know this, but my Secret Service name is Celtic. For real, because I’m Irish," Biden said. "Everybody behind me is Irish in their heart. I feel a special pride in this trophy for this old Irish Celtic. To all you Celtics, congratulations."

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Brandon needs a new code name. I suggest Pedo Pete.
