Madison Square Gardens bans fan who committed criminal act for life
Game 5 was a hard game to swallow for one Rangers fan. After assaulting 2 individuals, MSG has released the following statement on Twitter about the matter.
Statement from Madison Square Garden:
Last night, an abhorrent assault took place against a Tampa Bay fan at the conclusion of the game-followed by a second assault against an individual who bravely intervened.
First, we ensured the victims received appropriate medical care and have followed up to provide support from our guest services team.
Equally important, we are cooperating fully with law enforcement as this is now a criminal matter. The assailant will also be banned from The Garden and all other MSG venues for life.
All guests- no matter what team they support- should feel safe and respected in The Garden. This has and always will be our policy.

It's great to see MSG responding so quickly and severely to such a disgusting attack.
