After the Giants' Super Bowl win over the Patriots, Giants president and co-owner John Mara received non-stop congratulatory calls on his cell phone, to the point where he didn't pick up if he didn't recognize the number.
At one point, he got a call and saw that it was from "unknown caller," so he didn't answer.
A few minutes later, the same thing happened. And then once more. He didn't pick up.
His wife's cell phone rang and "unknown caller" came up again. She picked up.
The caller asked if he could speak with John, and his wife handed him the phone.
It was President Bush calling to congratulate him on the team's Super Bowl win.

he probably thought it was frank caliendo.
How come when I have unknown callers it's always a solicitor asking me for donations? Just once, I would like that unknown caller to be somewhat meaningful.
You call Bush meaningful?
He wanted to make sure it wasn't Hillary Clinton !
I remember blowing off President Carter when my team won the Little League Semi Finals--big win for us!!
