“THE GARDEN”
“It’s known simply as ‘The Garden,’ a perfect appellation for a place where legends grow. To millions, those two words mean just one thing: Madison Square Garden, billed in typical New York hype as
THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS ARENA.”
“It doesn’t matter if it’s Michael Jordan, or Muhammad Ali, or Sinatra, or the Pope... They know the stage is brighter here than anyplace else!”
“The Garden is more than a building. The history is so rich, and people want to be a part of that history.”
- From “Looking Back at 125 Years of Madison Square Garden” By AP Writer Larry McShane
“Whether sitting in the locker room or waiting in the wings, athletes and artists view the Garden as the pinnacle: the best venue in the biggest city before the brightest audiences.”
On so many nights across it’s 125 year history, the Garden has been THE place to be. Today, Madison Square Garden extends its greatness onto busy Seventh Avenue between 31st and 33rd Streets in Manhattan. The first Garden opened on Fifth Avenue in 1879 and has since changed locations and revolutionized into the 19,763-seat arena at its current location. The Garden is no stranger to college basketball, hosting the very first major postseason tournament, the National Invitational Tournament, in 1938. Well known across the globe, the Garden is more than an arena. Nearly five million fans pass through the Garden’s turnstiles every year, taking in such familiar staples as the New York Knicks, Rangers and Liberty, concerts, world championship boxing, and of course, college

How is one of tHe quietest cars on tHe road making tHe biggest noise?
Maybe it has something to do with how Volt owners can drive 38 miles1 gas-free. And by charging
regularly, the average Volt owner fills up only about once a month.1 Or perhaps it has to do with Volt’s
onboard gas generator that takes you even farther. It’s electric when you want it, gas when you need it.
Combine all of that with the fact that the 2012 Volt was recognized by J.D. Power and Associates as the
“Highest Ranked Vehicle Appeal among Compact Cars, Two Years in a Row” in the APEAL Study2 —
a study based on factors like styling, comfort and convenience, among others — and well, that speaks
volumes. Learn more at chevy.com/volt.

Actual mileage may vary. 2 The Chevrolet Volt received the highest numerical score among compact cars in the proprietary J.D.

If the average volt drIver

above-average drIver go?
Try 4,000 miles. No, that’s not a typo. That’s how far Noble from Alexandria, Virginia, recently went
between fill-ups thanks to his Volt, which can go 38 miles 1 gas-free. And when you want to get away
from it all, it has an onboard gas generator to help with that too. It’s electric when you want it, gas
when you need it. And if that wasn’t enough, the 2012 Chevrolet Volt was recognized by J.D. Power
and Associates as the “Highest Ranked Vehicle Appeal among Compact Cars, Two Years in a Row”
in the APEAL Study 2 — a study based on factors like styling, comfort, and convenience among others.
