He wants a courtside situation.
Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is calling out his “Jersey Shore” castmate Vinny Guadagnino for not bringing him as his plus one to Knicks games.
Guadagnino, a Staten Island native, can be frequently seen cheering on his home team from Celebrity Row at Madison Square Garden — and is allowed to invite a guest, but still hasn’t brought Sorrentino.
“During the season, I’m on the wood — courtside. It’s an amazing experience there. I try to get these guys to go,” Guadagnino told The Post this week, ahead of Season 8 of “Jersey Shore: Family Vacation,” which premieres on MTV on May 29.
“I told you I would go!” Sorrentino shot back.
Guadagnino, who now lives in Soho, explained the reason: his co-star would need too much time to suit up ahead of the game.
“Yeah, but he’s like, ‘You got to give me advance [notice] for my outfit,'” he said.
But Sorrentino believes his wildly gregarious nature is the real reason behind the snub.
“He’s very reserved,” Sorrentino, who lives in Holmdel, NJ, said of his castmate of more than 15 years.
“We went to UFC one time together and he says, ‘I am never going out with you ever again.'”
“Yeah, because he wore a shirt that looked like this. And it was hard to not spot him,” Guadagnino retorted, pointing to Sorrentino’s blue floral-patterned Versace button down.
Guadagnino was at Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, where the Knicks beat the Celtics — taking them to their first Eastern Conference finals since 2000 — and called it “the most magical game to be at in the last 25 years.”
The reality star is now “waiting for the right opportunity” to put in a request for tickets to the Eastern Conference finals, where the Knicks are down 0-2 to the Indiana Pacers, and hoping the team doesn’t get swept so they return to MSG.
“I don’t know, I kind of like space out my appearances. I can’t be annoying and be like, ‘Can I come, can I come?'”
He also explained how the seating process works for celebrity Knicks fans.
“They put you within the first couple rows and sometimes you’re on the floor. It just depends who’s there and stuff. I’m definitely more of the second row kind of guy.”
Another of Guadagnino’s castmates, Jenni “JWoww” Farley is hoping to take him up on the offer.
“I have to go. But he lives in the city, so it’s so easy. It’s like hours [for me],” said Farley, who also lives in Holmdel.
However, if she attends, the mom of two would avoid being caught on camera.
“Jenni, when she goes to sporting events, she hides in the nosebleeds in a suite. She doesn’t like to be on the floor,” Guadagnino noted.
“I’m not the cool kid. I want to be in the hat, hiding,” Farley admitted.
Guadagnino’s castmates will be out of luck in the ticket department when the longtime bachelor — who is currently on the celebrity dating app Raya — finds a girlfriend.
“Raya’s cool. I pay $30 a month to get left on read by a DJ … Every girl’s a DJ nowadays,” he said.
At the moment, he has his heart set on one woman — Victoria’s Secret model, Juliana Nalú.
“She’s my everything. I would sell my soul,” he said.
“Juliana, if you’re reading the New York Post, I’m available.”
