How One Team On A Winning Streak Helped Boost A Sports Radio Stn.

The story of the New York Knicks heading for and then reaching its first championship in 53 years has become a big deal, especially in the Big Apple, where many fans weren’t even born the last time their team won it all.
 
But it’s not just the Knicks who are basking in basketball glory. WFAN, the world’s first All Sports radio station, is having a kind of second coming, seeing ratings soar as it hitched its wagon to an NBA championship star.

Now the Tonight Show is jumping on the bandwagon, with members of the entire Knicks team as the only major guests on Monday night.

While Jimmy Fallon will continue to host, the real stars of the show may be in the audience. They will consist of N.Y. fans who couldn't get tickets to any of the playoff games, but love their team.
