The New York Knicks have pretty much experienced the season from hell so it’s cool (and rare!) to see a Knicks fan actually experiencing happiness at Madison Square Garden.

Watching a long-suffering Knicksfan win 10 grand on a half-court shot in front of the whole Garden is almost enough to make up for the past season.

Almost.

Knicks fans on Twitter couldn’t help but put this all into proper perspective.

@SBNationGIF at this point, they should sign him to a contract.
