| Why so much news about the cost of tickets, security, Trump going, etc. I can’t stand Trump but who cares about any of this??? Rich people problems. |

| Maybe focus on other news, OP? There are so many to choose from. I don't read or watch news about Knicks ticket holders. |

| About as bad as they feel for those of us who get stuck and miss activities when the orange motorcade stops us so he can go golf every weekend. |

| Because of Trump, they’re also canceling the free watch parties outside. |

Increased security at MSG so new rule that no bags allowed AT ALL. They've been warned to come hours early. No watch parties are allowed at MSG (normally people who don't have tickets do this), no vehicle access and no pedestrian travel through the area, which sits in a VERY busy part of Midtown Manhattan AKA above Penn Station! |

Not on NYT or BBC, sorry. I don't care at all about the Knicks. |

The headlines are not about the knicks. It’s about Trump. |

They are handling it in such a way that ticketholders will have a much less enjoyable experience. Also, the prices you see now are not the original prices.
These were always expensive, but it's not just a rich person's event. For a fandom like this that is passionate and has been waiting for a looooong time, splurging is not unusual. Many of those attending are regular people. |

Who is They? Management? Then management needs to stand up for the players and fans and not allow Trump to attend. That's all they have to do. "Sorry, because of the disruptions, added expense and distractions, it's not possible." |

The same way they let him look at only fake websites and news (probably an etch a sketch) they can put him in a different stadium, get some lookalike "players" in the same colors and let him watch that without ruining the real thing. |
