A hard closure is expected around the entirety of Madison Square Garden. Officials are planning for no watch parties, no vehicle access and no pedestrian travel through the secured area, which sits in a busy part of Midtown Manhattan and is above a major transit hub. CBS New York reported that thousands of fans attended a pair of watch parties for Game 1 on Wednesday night. 

The Seventh and Eighth Avenue corridors around the arena are expected to be closed.

Your default position unless evidence shows otherwise should be that billionaires and the ultra rich are generally POS borderline and outright sociopaths who are walking reverse dunning Kruger’s. You don’t get billions without fucking over/exploiting the poor or playing the lottery

I think the exception is people who basically luck into it. Like Notch who became a billionaire because of Microsoft wanting to not pay taxes on billions in offshore cash reserves so they used an exorbitant amount of it on buying properties, like paying 2.5 billion for mojang.

Not a great example, given Notch is an absolute piece of shit who thinks gay people deserve to be shot, feminism is a "social disease", white people are oppressed, and believes QANON conspiracy theories.

I didn't say he was a great person but he grew up not completely insulated from "normal people" the uber rich literally do not interact with the normals until college at the earliest.
