A major figure in the music world waded in to help organize a GoFundMe that raised more than $25,000 to help a New York City cab driver whose car was ruined by Knicks fans after the team’s NBA Finals win.
The Knicks secured their first title in 53 years with a 94-90 win on June 13, prompting fans to spill into the streets of the city’s five boroughs that night to celebrate. The occasion saw New Yorkers climbing on top of buses and cars, setting off fireworks and flares and chanting “Knicks in five!” to mark their team’s triumph in the fifth game of a possible seven.
