Then there it was, the Madison Square Garden...famous for various sports and music events. Well, the building is not so exciting from the outside :-)
The area was busy as all other areas in NYC, of course there were many shops and stores like Macy's and Borders...
Unfortunately we learned that there is no guided tour for the time being, due to reconstruction works. So we had to wait until the evening for getting inside.
The evening started with dinner at Shake Shack. Fresh made burgers and dogs attracted many guests so we had to wait patiently in line. They even have a merchandise store inside.
However, the meal was very good and the quality certainly way above the average of similar fast food chains.
Then ahead to the MSG and the game between the NY Nicks and the Golden State Warriors from San Francisco.
Well, the inside was as expected...nothing special to report. We had cheap seats but nevertheless a good view and the beer was nicely chilled.
The game itself wasn't able to start the crowd going crazy. I guess Basketball is not the sort of sports with too much emotions, anyway.
A funny moment late in the game: in one of the breaks someone proposed marriage to his girlfriend using the huge video screen cube in the middle of the hall. That caused some cheering...don't know if she said yes, though.
