Boston’s Marcus Smart gets his own Chipotle black card – and a robe

Boston Celtics veteran guard Marcus Smart wants the world to know he’s finally team president Danny Ainge’s equal … at least in Chipotle.

The favorite restaurant of the top dog in the Celtics front office has evidently reached out to the Flower Mound native to offer him a sponsorship including the coveted celebrity of “black” card Ainge has made a name for himself by using — perhaps even overusing — the “all-you-can-eat-for-free” perk in the past. Smart, while not a known fanatic for the Tex-Mex chain, has been known to play a prank or two in a nearby Chipotle often frequented by the team.

“[Chipotle] got me right for the new season and 1st game tonight with a fresh Celebrity Card and my own custom robe Shamrock,” tweeted Smart to announce his newest and perhaps most treasured hardware.

And while we’re thinking about it, unless Ainge has the same sort of loungewear he hasn’t modeled like Boston’s best known robe aficionado, it might just be the case that Smart has surpassed his boss, at least in situations where guacamole is involved.
