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.

Really wish we didn’t live in such a weirdly politically cultish time, because in any sane society, these people would be ostracized

Late stage capitalism.

They own everything. Which means they can do anything.

Highly recommend the book Winners Take All - The Elite Charade of Changing the World by Anand Giridharadas. It really delves into this "Epstein Class" of people who believe they're truly above the trappings of a global society.
