A Con Job At MSG

No, I'm not talking about the Rangers or the Knicks abysmal performance over the past couple of years or Cablevision's incompetence in handling affairs.

I am talking about what was purported to be a marriage proposal at a Rangers game the other night. Here's the video, showing the woman running off in a huff after the proposal was made on the overhead screens.



It was a con job.

However, two Madison Square Garden sources said it was a hoax designed by the real-life couple and without the knowledge of the Garden.

That wouldn't be the first time that a sporting event was used as a platform for a hoax of this kind.
