Phish made history with their Baker’s Dozen run at Madison Square Garden in 2017—not only for themselves but also for the storied venue. On the final night of Phish’s unprecedented 13-night run, a commemorative banner honoring the achievement was raised to the rafters of the World’s Most Famous Arena where it still hangs to this day.
