New York Knicks diehard fan Ben Stiller lost some street cred when he attended the 2026 Met Gala instead of the Knicks' playoff game on Monday, May 4. "If Ben Stiller picked the Met Gala over Game 1 of the Knicks game he may have to turn in his man card," Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy posted via X. Sports Illustrated's Jimmy Traina wrote, "Here's what I need to know. Would Ben Stiller blow off tonight's Knicks game for the Met Gala if it was Game 7 and not Game 1. Please answer @BenStiller. This is important. Thank you.
