Knicks fans appear set to take over San Antonio for NBA Finals Game 5

Knicks takeover.New York is the top-billing state for Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the Knicks and Spurs, even though the game is in San Antonio, according to SeatGeek.Thirty-one percent of the billing is from Knicks territory, New York and New Jersey, while just 20 percent is from the Spurs’ home state of Texas.This is a huge increase from Game 1, when New York and New Jersey states grabbed 13 percent, and Game 2 (17 percent).Texas was responsible for at least 41 percent of ticket sales in each of those games.The Knicks-heavy crowd was expected regardless of the Game 4 outcome, with New York and New Jersey buyers still accounting for 28 percent of sales prior to June 10.The surge of Knicks fans has also come with a surge in price.

Prior to Game 4, the get-in price was $1,481.It has since risen 20 percent to $1,774 after the Knicks’ historic 29-point comeback put them up 3-1 in the series.The price is still nothing compared to Madison Square Garden’s numbers, which saw a $4,585 get-in price, including fees, on the day of Game 3.The most expensive ticket, courtside near the center of the court, was auctioned for $500,000.
