NYC lawyer Benjamin Pinczewski said he was banned from a Rangers game at MSG this week after James Dolan’s facial recognition technology flagged him.
Benjamin Pinczewski, a 61-year-old personal injury and civil rights lawyer, had just passed through a metal detector at the arena and was headed to plum lower-level seats with friends on Jan. 10 when he was stopped by two officials and kicked out,“It was very embarrassing to be marched out in front of friends and fans like I was a criminal,” Pinczewski said.
The guards informed him he’d been “denied entry” due to the policy implemented by MSG CEO James Dolan banning all lawyers involved in active lawsuits against the firm. He called the policy “petty and ridiculous” and said he was stunned that his likeness was used without his permission, according to the outlet.
Pinczewski’s removal comes after a New Jersey attorney was booted from a Rockettes show at Radio City, which is also among Dolan’s empire along with the Knicks, Rangers and various restaurants.
