- All four games of the Championship Rounds at Madison Square Garden were nationally televised on ESPN Networks. Both semifinal games as well as the championship game aired on ESPN2 while the consolation game was shown on ESPNU. Additionally, two Regional Round games aired on ESPNU and two were shown on ESPN3. The Big Ten Network and Pac-12 Network each televised two games nationally, meaning all 12 regional round and championship round games were available on a national basis.

- Since 2009, the average rating on ESPN2 of the 2K Sports Classic is .50, well above the average of .30 for college basketball on ESPN2.

- John Saunders and Fran Fraschilla served as ESPN’s broadcast team for the Championship Round games at Madison Square Garden.

- The 2K Sports Classic was again one of the most highly attended early-season college basketball events in the country, attracting over 101,000 fans over the course of the tournament. The Championship Round games at Madison Square Garden drew an average of over 10,000 fans.

- The 2013 2K Sports Classic was the second in which Wounded Warrior Project served as the event’s beneficiary. Nearly 200 wounded warriors attended the event, many of whom were honored prior to games or served as honorary team captains.

- The Event has featured three eventual national champions -- Florida (2006), Syracuse (2003), and Maryland (2002). The Event has also had four additional NCAA Final Four teams -- Memphis (2008), George Mason (2006), Marquette (2003), and Texas (2003). Since 1995, 59 teams that participated in the 2K Sports Classic went on to compete in the NCAA Tournament that March.

EVENT DEMOGRAPHICS


“THE GARDEN”On so many nights across it’s 125 year history, the Garden has been THE place to be. Today, Madison Square Garden extends its greatness onto busy Seventh Avenue between 31st and 33rd Streets in Manhattan. The first Garden opened on Fifth Avenue in 1879 and has since changed locations and revolutionized into the 19,763-seat arena at its current location. The Garden is no stranger to college basketball, hosting the very first major postseason tournament, the National Invitational Tournament, in 1938. Well known across the globe, the Garden is more than an arena. Nearly five million fans pass through the Garden’s turnstiles every year, taking in such familiar staples as the New York Knicks, Rangers and Liberty, concerts, world championship boxing, and of course, college basketball.

“It’s known simply as ‘The Garden,’ a perfect appellation for a place where legends grow. To millions, those two words mean just one thing: Madison Square Garden, billed in typical New York hype as

THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS ARENA.”

“It doesn’t matter if it’s Michael Jordan, or Muhammad Ali, or Sinatra, or the Pope... They know the stage is brighter here than anyplace else!”

“Whether sitting in the locker room or waiting in the wings, athletes and artists view the Garden as the pinnacle: the best venue in the biggest city before the brightest audiences.”

“The Garden is more than a building. The history is so rich, and people want to be a part of that history.”

- From “Looking Back at 125 Years of Madison Square Garden” By AP Writer Larry McShane

- In just three years, the Gotham Classic has been an unqualified success. The tournament has featured six of the winningest programs in the history of college basketball, with Syracuse and Temple meeting in the inaugural event, Notre Dame and Ohio State squaring off in the 2013 Classic, and NC State and West Virginia playing in the 2014 event.

- Since the inaugural event in 2012, the average rating on ESPN2 for the Gotham Classic is .70, more than double the average of .30 for college basketball on ESPN2.

- Three games of the 2014 Gotham Classic aired on ESPN Networks, including the NC State-West Virginia match on ESPN2. ESPN3 aired the Richmond-Pepperdine and South Alabama-IUPUI games. In addition WTVR-TV in Richmond televised the Richmond-Howard game.

- The Gotham Classic has become a hot ticket in the New York college basketball scene. Since its inception, the event has averaged over 10,000 fans for the Showcase Round at Madison Square Garden.

- The first two events featured seven of the 10 participants advancing to the postseason that year, five of which earned NCAA Tournament bids. In 2012, Syracuse went on to play in the Final Four while Temple played in the NCAA Tournament’s second round. In 2013, North Dakota State reached the third round of the NCAA Tournament with Ohio State and Delaware earning spots in the second round.
