Madison Square Garden? Everyone who sets foot in that place should know him on sight. If there is one guy. He is that guy. Officious guards giving him a hard time definitely need to...make a deposit in a dark place, let’s just say that. Patrick Ewing gave the best years of his life entertaining fans in that venue. He worked harder in that arena than any man has ever worked. Those guards—totally ridiculous, preposterous, player-hating...Ewing should have personally picked them up and dumped them on 7th Avenue for New York’s Grubbiest to chuck in the truck!
You, sir, are quite correct. You cannot possibly live in NYC and not recognize Patrick Ewing by site, just like Derek Jeter. They’re icons — the only way you don’t recognize them is if you need an attitude adjustment or you’re just clinically thick. The security guard is a blithering idiot.
