There's no hotter ticket in town than Madison Square Garden on Saturday afternoon.

That's the site of Knicks-Celtics Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semis. New York hype is sky high after the Knicks managed to pull off back-to-back 20-point comebacks to steal both games in Boston against the defending champs.

The tickets' prices have skyrocketed to incredible levels.

The most expensive as of Saturday morning: $98,791.

The best part? A post on X by @RyanFoley02, just a basketball fan.

"You are allowed to play for that price," he wrote.

Seems like a fair negotiation.

A fan coming out to play in Game 3 of this crazy series? That'd somehow fit just right.

It might not help the Knicks out too much, but with the miracles they've already pulled off, who knows?

Can't count out anything with these Knicks.
