Exciting news for Josh Hart: Taylor Swift is reportedly going to game four of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night. “She’s a huge fan of the Knicks and really wants to be there to support them. She is going with friends,” a source told “Page Six.” Okay, fun! While I’m sure Swift is going to have a great time booing Victor Wembanyama with her pals, there is greater significance to her presence tonight. According to reports, Swift and Travis Kelce are planning to get married at MSG on July 3. So is she going in order to witness the Knicks’ decades-in-the-making Finals run, or is she just scoping out how she should arrange the seating chart?
Of course, Swift knows that attending a game at MSG three weeks before she’s allegedly getting hitched there is going to make some noise. The real question is whether this is all part of an elaborate smokescreen meant to distract us from the fact that she and Kelce are going to have an intimate ceremony at her home in Rhode Island this weekend. How would a wedding at MSG even work? Let’s consider the details.
The most obvious rationale for picking the Garden is that it’s incredibly secure and there are no windows or underground entrances, so photographers won’t be able to get shots of anyone involved. Per TMZ, around 1,100 to 1,200 guests (!!!) are set to attend the Swift-Kelce wedding at the historic arena on Fourth of July weekend. A “Page Six” source said that guests are going to arrive in blacked-out buses to really ensure that no one sees anything.
