The New York Knicks have alerted ticket holders that security protocols for Game 3 of their playoff series will be stricter than usual because former U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to be in the arena, the franchise said Thursday.
In a message sent to fans, the organization said additional screening measures will be in place and advised arriving earlier than normal to avoid delays. The Knicks did not detail the specific enhancements but warned that lines at entrances could be longer.
The team’s announcement comes ahead of the matchup commonly referred to as “G3,” which is scheduled for Thursday night. Trump’s appearance is the primary reason for the increased security posture, according to the Knicks’ notification.
The club added that all standard arena policies remain in effect and that spectators should review prohibited-item lists before heading to the game.
No further information about seating arrangements for the former president or the length of his stay was provided.
