Madison Square Garden, by Jose

The place that means a lot to me is the world’s most famous arena, Madison Square Garden. As a child I always visited Madison Square Garden every year to see the circus, but now it's really meaningful to me because of the WWE. For years the WWE has been holding events in Madison Square Garden. I have been in MSG when history was made. On March 14, 2004, I went to Wrestlemania 20 with my father. That day I was in a crowd of 22,000 WWE fans. It was an emotional night because I got to go to my first Wrestlemania which is the biggest event in wrestling today and I got to be there with my father and of course the thousands of fans. Another great moment in Madison Square Garden was when I went to Monday Night Raw on September 11, 2006 and a sold out crowd got to witness Lillian Garcia sing "America the Beautiful," and ECW is making its debut in Madison Square Garden. As a 14-year- old living in New York I've witnessed tragedy and also joy from the community. I can also be live in front of over 22,000 fans every time I come to visit the arena. It has been around for a long time and history has been made there from the New York Knicks to the Rangers, the boxing fights, and of course the WWE events. My father and I have had the best time in Madison Square Garden. Madison Square Garden will always be the world’s most famous arena in my point of view.
