There’s probably more than a few Hip Hop fans that have fantasized about sitting courtside with Jay-Z at a Knicks game at Madison Square Garden. Well, they might be in luck because if their wallets are fat enough they can now bid on tickets to sit courtside with Hov himself.
Bidding on the two seats started earlier this week with bids for the seats starting at an impressive $8,500. The auction will officially close on Wednesday, March 30.
Jay-Z will be giving all of the proceeds from the auction to the Stephen Gaynor School in New York City, a school that specializes in teaching children with disabilities.
For more information on Jay-Z’s auction and/or to make a bid visit CharityBuzz.com.
In other Hip Hop news, Atlanta rapper Big Boi will be giving out 4,000 tickets (two tickets per person) to his show at Austin’s South By Southwest music festival through a promotion with the location-based social networking site Foursquare.
All fans have to do is follow Big Boi and check in on Foursquare at various locations at the festival to win a pair of tickets.
Big Boi’s show in Austin will take place on Monday, March 14 at the Seaholm Power Plant.
if jay-z is a minority owner of the nets why isn’t he giving out tickets to the nets instead of the knicks? no wonder lebron and melo said no to him when he asked them to play there…i guess that shows how much sway he has on nba players which is none!
Who in the hell would want to see the Nets play?????
Jay-Z couldn’t action those tickets because he would have to pay somebody to watch that shit!!!
