Madison Square Garden, New York

The Garden's famous ceiling glowing over Game 3 of the 2026 NBA Finals between the Knicks and the Spurs, on June 8, 2026. The current building above Penn Station opened in 1968, and two years later Willis Reed limped out of the tunnel before Game 7 to spark the Knicks' first title. The Spurs won this game, but New York took the series in five for its first championship since 1973, finally adding a new banner to "the World's Most Famous Arena."
