Kanye West Beats Pope Francis’ Merchandise Record At Madison Square Garden

During the New York City stop of his “Saint Pablo Tour” at Madison Square Garden on Monday (Sept. 5), he raked in a whopping $780,000 in merch sales. Over the years, Chris Rock has been a known supporter of West and even featured on some of his previous songs.

On Tuesday night, Kardashian West headed to Kanye West’s second Saint Pablo tour show at Madison Square Garden in NY. The comedian was filmed in a short video on Instagram going insane over Kanye’s Saint Pablo tour. “I’ve seen Michael Jackson here”, he said while praising the show.

Kanye West is bigger than the Pope – and now the overconfident star can actually offer some backing to such a bold claim.

The pontiff may have performed mass at MSG to 20,000 people, but Kanye took his fans to church and they returned the favor by purchasing a hefty amount of souvenirs.
