Goodbye to Giants Stadium

Giants Stadium will be torn down to make way for the new Meadowlands Stadium. I may not have been a regular there and can only count on three visits there all to watch the Giants, allow me to share my one simple memory of the place. That was where I experienced my first ever real live barbecue cookout tailgate party. And what fun it was. The Giants lost that game and as a footnote, they lost their first ever match in the Meadowlands in 1976 and they lose their last. Unlike their neighbors the Yankees who won a championship in the first year at the old Yankee Stadium and their 27th at the new billion-dollar Yankee Stadium II. Hopefully, when NYTD Blue's new digs open, we won't be seeing anymore of these sad pictures of fans.
