If we’ve learned anything about Knicks owner James Dolan over the past few years it’s that he has no problem banning people from his playground known as Madison Square Garden for the pettiest of reasons, and now, rapper Lil Tjay has found himself embargoed from the Mecca of basketball.

According to TMZ, the “Pop Out” rapper is no longer welcome at “The World’s Most Famous Arena” after he was caught spitting in the face of a security guard during the WBO lightweight champion bout between Keyshawn Davis and Denys Berinchyk last Friday night (Feb. 14). In a video making the social media rounds following the incident, we see a security guard going back-and-forth with Tjay at the event before someone intervenes and separates the two men only for Lil Tjay to approach the guard one more time letting one fly right out of his mouth and into the guard’s face.

That’ll do it every time.

Needless to say, once upper management caught wind of the incident and saw the video, it wasn’t a hard choice for them to ban the rapper from ever setting foot back in Madison Square Garden.
Per TMZ:
Madison Square Garden tells TMZ … “Our policy is that patrons that engage in confrontational and disruptive behavior will be escorted out and banned from all MSG properties.”
Our sources inside the building tell us Tjay and his crew were pushing to get ringside without having the proper clearance to be in the VIP area.
We’re told when Tjay was informed they weren’t allowed, the “Trench Baby” rapper got physical and spit in the guard’s face — with multiple angles of the slimy skirmish caught on camera.
While Lil Tjay might be a well-known artist in the Hip-Hop culture, he found out he doesn’t hold enough weight to just walk into the VIP section of a huge event without getting pushback from hired security. That’s only reserved for the likes of Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Hip-Hop moguls of that caliber… maybe.
What do y’all think about Lil Tjay getting banned from Madison Square Garden? Too harsh for his actions or a proper punishment? Peep another angle of the incident and let us know in the comments section below.
