In response to the Lin-sanity and Lin-sensational demand to watch the Knicks game, MSG Network will host its first Knicks viewing party in Chinatown, New York City, on Wednesday, February 15th to provide Time Warner Cable customers who have not been able to watch Knicks games since January 1 when the cable provider dropped MSG Network from its channel lineup. The viewing party will start at 7:00 p.m. at Nom Wah Tea Parlor located at 13 Doyer Street in New York City.

The viewing party, complete with appetizers, prizes, and giveaways, is free and open to the public. Event staff will also be available to help Time Warner Cable customers find other television providers that are available in their neighborhoods. Fans are encouraged to arrive 30 minutes prior to game time and admission is on a first come, first serve basis. Fans must be 21 years of age or older to be admitted.

“We look forward to having this Knicks viewing party in Chinatown,” said Michael Bair, president, MSG Media. “The top operators in the market recognize the value of the programming and the content that we offer, and all we’ve asked of Time Warner Cable is to recognize the fair market value of the services that we provide. But until that happens, we continue to urge fans to switch TV providers, and they can learn how to do so at KeepMSG.com or by calling 888-KeepMSG (533-7674).”
