KNICKS SPIKE UP TICKET PRICES: COURTSIDES NOW $1,350 A GAME

          The Knicks are "increasing" ticket prices by 10-12.5%
     next season, with the top tickets increasing by $100, to a
     "whopping" $1,350 per seat per game, according to Kevin
     Kernan of the N.Y. POST.  In a letter to season-ticket
     holders, MSG CEO Dave Checketts wrote that the increases
     were necessary "to keep pace with the growing cost of
     maintaining our talented roster in such a competitive
     marketplace."  Courtside seats will now run $58,050 per seat
     for the season.  The most affordable ticket at MSG will rise
     from $20 a game this year to $22 next season, and a seat
     that was $200 will now cost $220.  Kernan added that the
     $220 seat "was $25 a decade ago" (N.Y. POST, 5/26).
