'Fans' destroy motor vehicles in Giants Stadium lot
Might as well post this stuff here, as it is about to be everywhere on the Internet.
It is video of profoundly disturbing behavior - along with many words that readers might find offensive - in the parking lot at Giants Stadium Sunday.
It is unclear who these people are or who owns the cars in question.
The thread title on MikeFrancesa.com was on the right track, as it was titled, "The reason Older Giants Fans have a problem with going to games."
But I would amend that to call it, "The reason all civilized people hesitate to attend professional sports events."
(UPDATE: Here is a statement from the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority on all this:
1. The vehicles shown in the stadium parking lot were damaged and/or totaled earlier in the day by a fire caused when the Porsche parked over coals from a tailgater.
2. The owners were notified during the game and our towing company was authorized to tow the vehicles out after the end of their parking lot duties. That occurred approximately 9 p.m.
3. The video is under investigation as to when this later vandalism could have occurred. Our security and/or State Police are on duty until 8 p.m. on game days.
4. We will continue the investigation and do everything possible to identify the vandals.)

My guess is No. 91 will be answering a few questions down at the local police precinct.
Don't these idiots ever realize that sometimes police authorities or people who at least know better look on youtube and report this?
Poor Porsche.
It it's my car, let me take that same bat to all of them.
I hope #11 gets nabbed. I can't believe security or other patrons saw this happening with the parking lot so empty.
Found on a forum. Not my words:
Here's the story on this....I went to the game on Sunday and was parked 2 cars over from the White truck. I happened to know the guy in the white truck and feel very bad for him. Everyone went into the game and there were hot coals in the spot where the Porsche was parked. The driver of the Porsche parked over the hot coals well after the game had started. The spot was open when everyone went in. The owner of the white truck got a call during the game that his truck was on fire from his wife. He thought she was kidding. A state trooper identified the plate and called his wife. He had a very large propane tank in his truck that he used for a heater that day. Thank God the fire didn't get to that or it would have been much, much worse.
After the game, the owner of the porsche threw the keys on his seat and called a taxi stating "I am outta here, you deal with this." That is what set everyone off.
However, the owner of the white truck was not involved. I don't know who the guys were swinging the bats (maybe the owner of the black SUV on the other side) but the people who should have been mad were not doing the damage. All three cars were un-drivable and the owner of the white truck was told to wait for an insurance adjuster. That is why they were all still there.
Sad situation for all and the guys doing the damage are probably going to regret it. Football is not that important but alcohol will make you do very, very stupid things.
This is why the NFL should probably be like baseball and avoid division rivals playing each other in the playoffs. Always brings the worse out but I must say these people were more than likely mentally unhinged before this game.
Neil, everyone knows that is how Philly fans celebrate.
Once again, the doors to Darwin's Waiting Room were left unlocked.
Normally, I don't go to games, but a friend got tickets and I went Sunday. As I pulled into the parking lot, I was disgusted by what I saw. A lot of very drunk people being loud and lewd, making a mess of the parking lot. Broken bottles, fires, piss, you name it, it was everyewhere.
Waaaa! waaaa! there was loud people and beer and urine in the parking lot!....Get over it, its playoff football. Messes get made.
Neil,
Is the simulcast of "Barney and Bam Bam in the Morning?"
GIANTS fans really are disgusting messes. I hope that fat meatball in the #11 jersey gets his fat ass beat!

Ever wonder why people have no respect for Americans?
I hope that little meatball in the #11 jersey gets his ass locked up. See if he's smiling those baked bean teeth then.

Gelman, we are all not like that. I am honestly surprised no old-timer told those chumps to sit down and knock off their racket.
This never would have happened in Big D.
For all I hear on NY Radio that the Giants are ,
well, look in the mirror. Football is a respected sport in Texas,
the fans have respect for their team, the opponent, the opposition
fans and themsleves.
And to DJ, this is the prototypical NJ fan when he says:
Waaaa! waaaa! there was loud people and beer and urine in the
parking lot!....Get over it, its playoff football. Messes get made.
(Gee DJ, I guess that makes you cool that you can urinate in a
parking lot. I am very impressed. Too bad you were absent the
day they taught self respect)

Why are all of the trolls double/triple/quadruple-posting?
the silver sports car pulled into stadium late and was surprised to find this spot. what he didnt notice were the still burning coals fro a bbq which ignited his cars and the cars parked next to it, so thse cars were totalled i believe befor these morons came along.
typical new jersey. too much money and too much time. it is the same crowd who trashed cars during the new jersey giant's parade last year.

Anyone who thinks this is behavior of typical Giants fans are sadly mistaken. These are criminal thugs who should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I would expect this behavior from Eagles fans NOT real Giants fans.
Too bad Simms didn't get hurt doing the body slam. Kids being kids I just hope they had enough sense not to drive home.

Why do people have baseball bats at a football game?
if your crying over the way people act at a football game.. than go watch
american idol or some bullSht.
Obviously the people in this video are drunks and should be taking to authorites but
to bitch about the way things go during rivalries is just plain stupid.
This, other than betting, is what makes the game more enjoyable.
If your scared to go to a game than watch it on TV.
Any giant fan knows that once you enter the parking lot, expect the worst. Plus all the coals
I seen that day, should of known this would of happened by some idiot that would park over it.
Hey TommyStar,
SHUT THE **** UP!!! You stupid p.o.s. stereotyping a whole fan base based on these aholes and saying it would never happen in Big D. All they do in Dallas is sign ahole players and hope that their criminals with 7 second chances can do something with their life. And the fans love these aholes like Terrell and Pacman who can never show up when it actually matters. Yet they still haven't won a playoff game in about 13 years. Go find a shoulder to cry on and go suck on Jerry Jones c***!
Hey Brkmb,
Thanks for proving my point. (Love the Jersy language inflection)
Funny, Did Plax show up when it really mattered? No, he was doing shots.
It's a shame that a few morons have to ruin some fine cars in the stadium.
It's also a shame that a few morons have to pollute this blog with some of the garbage I've been reading above. There's one thing that can still save the integrity of the blog and those who comment on it (and it has nothing to to do with Best blogging about Henican in a bathrobe):

Do any of you fans that are rationalizing this stupid behavior realize how ridiculous you sound?
Seems to me the guy with the nice language was the guy doing the stereotyping while complaining that a whole fan base was being stereotyped. He must be a politician,
I don't give a damn about what they did. Juvenile, yes, do I care about what they were doing, not really. What I do care about though is that I have come across only THREE legitimate news sources that have had stories about this. Two being Chicago of all places. What pisses me off is that if this happened in Philadelphia, I guarantee you it would be everywhere.
football is gay.
The only reason this becomes news is because outlets like Newsday put it up on their website like it is important news to report on. You did the same for the vandals at the Giants SB celebration parade back in February. Congratulations on being propaganda artists for the mentally challenged. Newsday is just as guilty as those who are embarassing themselves on that video.
TommyStar,
Do you realize how much of an idiot you sound like? You're a Cowboys fan and have nothing better to do than try to compare these idiots to other Giants fans. I know you can't write anything good about the Cowboys because they sign players that make Plaxico look like a saint, and they forgot how to win games in December and January. Face it - the Cowboys are the NY Rangers before the lockout. Get all the talent there is but can't do anything with it. Are you going to cry next year when the only thing you can do at the end of the year is look for other teams fans to berate? Also - not from Jersey and never lived there.
I'm sorry Tommy that your life sucks so bad and the teams you go for even more so. Maybe one day you'll learn to live with yourself and lose all your insecurities whatever they may be. Maybe you can't handle the Cowboys underachieving every year, maybe you're upset that you didn't make the their cheerleading squad because the way you relate things you must want to be a cheerleader b/c GW lives in Texas and he was - probably makes sense in your pea-sized brain. Or maybe you have a tiny weewee. Who knows? But everyone on this board does know you're a sad moron.
