Like Putting a Lump of Coal in a Stocking

Need a holiday gift for the sports fan you hate in your family? Quick, take them to a Knicks game! The Knicks are offering 40% off tickets to three games in December. Using the code "BALKMAN" (for Renaldo Balkman), ticket buyers can save on tonight's game against Memphis (you can't get these online anymore), 12/11 against Boston, and 12/18 against Utah.

Holiday season weekends are filled with traffic, shopping and gift wrapping. Wind down after your hectic weekends this December by spending your Mondays at The Garden with this special holiday offer from the Knicks.

Save over 40% on select tickets to the following three games:

Dec 4 vs. Memphis Grizzlies
Dec 11 vs. Boston Celtics
Dec 18 vs. Utah Jazz
Experience the excitement of Knicks games at The Garden. Supplies are limited, so get your tickets now!

For some reason, the Knicks also think you'll "experience new heights" when watching Knicks basketball. If they think 6-13 and the worst home record in the NBA is any sort of accomplishment, Gothamist would like some of that they've been smoking.

Our tip to you: If you go, take the savings from this offer to get drunk and boo Isiah Thomas and James Dolan.

Okay, I was wrong. The link does work but only if you specifically request $60.50 or $44.50 tickets. I hereby amend my prior comment to read, in relevant part, "The Knicks can't do anything well."

The code is not working for the Knicks-Celtics game on the 11th. The Knicks can't do anything right.

They should be ashamed that they're still charging anything for tickets. If any of you douchebags buy them, discounted or not, come down to the holiday lounge for a free lobotomy on me!
