SoCalSkins Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Giants Stadium wasn't that bad. I'm suprised they ponied up. The team probably wants more premium seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats cool is that the Giants won't be adding any seating behind polls or in corners to squeez in extra moneys .The deal also includes a Redskin esque type park ,practice and pre-season will be held there ,to be built next to the old stadium .

The Jets are either still in the process of or got the OK to build their stadium in Manhattan. 2. Dont douse the fire of my mockery towards the Giants with facts!
