First, the loyal fans who supported the Knicks for decades when the team sucked (emptying thier wallets for tickets, shirts, jerseys) get priced out of the building when New York finally reaches the Finals (by insanely wealthy patrons willing/capable of casually blowing $20k on a pair of tickets to a basketball game, many of them having just hopped on the bandwagon or purchased tix to Game 3 solely b/c MSG is “the place to be” this week).
Then those same loyal, working-class fans get a second middle finger from ownership. Due to Dolan's desire to host Trump, thousands of diehard Knicks fans are denied the chance to gather outside the Garden, watch the game on a big screen, and share a once-in-a-lifetime moment with the community that helped keep this franchise alive when nobody else cared.
Access is reserved for the powerful, rich and/or connected, not the fans who stuck with this team through 20+ years of misery.
Michelle Obama has spoken fairly regularly about how the Obama’s would miss out on opportunities so they would not inconvenience the public because they were in the White House to serve others.
No MSG watch party outside the Garden during the biggest game of the year because a selfish weirdo chooses to want to make himself the center of attention during a moment where the vibes have been immaculate . Y’all president is really a weirdo.
The assault on an NYPD officer outside Madison Square Garden last night was unacceptable.
New Yorkers are rightfully excited about the Knicks' historic Finals run, and we want fans to celebrate this moment together. There is, however, no place for violence, and no tolerance for attacks on police officers.
Thank you to the officers who worked to keep fans safe throughout the night, and we wish the injured officer a speedy recovery.
The overwhelming majority of New Yorkers celebrated responsibly, and I urge everyone to continue doing so as the Finals return to New York.
