The Jacksons Madison Square Garden 1970-1981 Gold Ticket Sales Award - Owned By Michael Jackson's Manager
Presented is a 10.5x12.5 framed display featuring a replica metallic ticket dated Aug. 19, 1981 for the Jacksons at Madison Square Garden, presented to Ron Weisner to commemorate the sale of more than 140,000 tickets at Madison Square Garden between 1970-1981. The display comes in its original wooden frame.
Ron Weisner was a high-powered manager for over four decades working alongside Madonna, Paul McCartney, Steve Winwood, Gladys Knight, Curtis Mayfield, Bill Withers, and, most notably, Michael Jackson. He saw the King of Pop through his game-changing multi-platinum albums Thriller and Off the Wall.
In 1977, Madison Square Garden announced Gold Ticket Awards would be given to performers who had brought in more than 100,000 unit ticket sales to the venue. Since the arena's seating capacity is about 20,000, this would require a minimum of five sold-out shows. The Jacksons were eligible in 1977 but received their award in 1981.
