"I could lie and say it was exactly what we envisioned, but we were putting something truly new and original into the world and when you do that, you never quite know how it's going to react when it's out in the world," said Lance Fensterman, the chief executive officer of Fanatics Events.
Sports fans statewide and beyond descended on Jacob Javits Center on Aug. 16 to celebrate sports not only as a source of entertainment but also for its cultural impact. Running Friday through Sunday, the event allows attendees to witness live shows, peruse rare merchandise like baseball cards, and see historical gear worn by athletes of the past. The opportunity to meet sports icons in person enhances the experience, making it a memorable event.
