otsoNY Comments: Although several of the shots clearly show Madison Square Gardens, the actual close ups of Kate
Hudson and Matthew McConaughey were shot in Toronto, Canada with the help of the green screens. It is only when Matthew leaves the
stadium to buy a drink in the foyer and when him and Kate leave the game are they actually at Madison Square Gardens.

otsoNY Comments: As with so many New York based films, several of the scenes are often shot in Canada. The exterior
is the US Customs House in lower Manhattan, but all of the interior gala scenes were in fact shot 3 weeks
later in Toronto.
