New York Car Rentals and the New York Giants
The New York Giants are a professional football team based in New York, but they play their games at Giants Stadium in New Jersey in East Rutherford. They are part of the Eastern Division of the National Football Conference. The giants were one of five teams that joined the NFL in 1925, but the only one that was admitted that year that still exists. There was also a baseball team with the same name, but they moved to San Francisco in 1957. Their team colors are royal blue, red, gray, and white. Come down to East Rutherford with your New York car rental to see a game.
The Giants won the Superbowl in 1990 for the second time over the Buffalo Bills. After that, the team went through major coaching changes, quarterback controversies, and moved right back to the middle of the NFL instead of being a top team. In 2000 the Giants were once again at the top of the NFL. That year they went to the Superbowl for the third time, but lost. This team is still exciting and you should come down to see a game with your New York car rental. To avoid lineups, it is recommended that you arrive an hour early.
Giants Stadium
Also home to the New York Jets, Giants Stadium is a great place to see a football game when you have a New York car rental. The seating capacity here is 80,242 people and it was the first major sporting venue to be successful in New Jersey. This was great for the area because it brought a lot of business to the area, but also a lot of pride and enthusiasm among New Jersey residents.
Other sports have also been played here. Soccer star Pele played his last game here in 1977. In 1994, nine games of the World Cup were also played here.
In 1995, Pope John Paul II celebrated mass at Giant's Stadium to the largest crowd ever gathered there of 82, 948.
Concerts are also important at Giant's Stadium. Big names such as Bruce Springsteen, the Grateful Dead, and the Three Tenors have performed before large audiences.
Giants Stadium will be replaced with a new stadium, to be opened in 2010.
