Talk:Madison Square Garden (1925)

Tenants

The NCAA basketball tournament isn't considered a tenant since the NCAA is not headquartered at MSG and the tournament is held in different cities (MSG was not the first either; it simply hosted for six consecutive seasons mostly to compete with the NIT and for the media coverage of playing in New York). Things like tournaments, championship games (including the Super Bowl), concerts, and Wrestlemania are events that a given facility hosts, but they aren't tenants. A tenant is a team or organization that uses the facility as their home court. In many cases they have a say or control over day-to-day operations and even in any physical changes made to a facility (such as the Knicks and Rangers with the current MSG). The NIT falls under that because it has always been at MSG and is heavily associated with the arena, so MSG III was their "home arena" and the current MSG is their current home arena. It doesn't move from arena to arena every year. That's why the Super Bowl isn't listed as a tenant for the Superdome (even though the Superdome has hosted the Super Bowl on multiple occasions), the Big Ten Championship game isn't a tenant of Lucas Oil Stadium (despite signing a multi-year deal to hold the game there), or the Big Ten Tournament at the United Center (even though it has been the site of the tournament on multiple occasions). Those events should certainly be listed in the body of the article, but not in the tenant list. The reasoning is that it opens the tenant list to any major event that uses the facility and then it not only could become unreasonably long, but makes it difficult to find what teams use/used the facility (which is usually why the facility is most notable). --JonRidinger (talk) 08:06, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

I understand your reasoning, and I agree. BMK (talk) 09:02, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
