On 18 June 1984, at Madison Square Garden in New York City, a riotous crowd prompted the venue to ban Priest. `` Madison Square Garden banned us for life '', recalled Glenn Tipton. `` The audience went berserk and ripped all the seats out. They cost more than a quarter of a million dollars to replace. Me and Ken ( KK Downing ) went back there to see a tennis match which John McEnroe was playing in. We went incognito, wearing hoodies so no one would recognize us, but the ushers came up to us and said, ' Thanks for the new seats, guys.
