Well heres my locales....when I'm here in New York, USA, I root from my apt. in Brooklyn,(Bensonhurst)...However, I have 2 houses' in Ecuador; one in Guayaquil, the other is in Punta Blanca; which is on the Pacific Ocean just North of Salinas, Ecuador. I go there every winter around Christmas and return after New Years sometimes in late Janurary or early Feburary. Therefore I watch the ESPN feeds on Equavisa (National tv), and my Sportscenter (In English!) every morning @ 9am. I also have a fairly sweet computer, so I can watch the simulcasts from ESPN, or the NFL Game Day package from my beach house or open-air terrace whenever I am at one of those houses. Plus, the NFL is taking a hold down there and they Broadcast on their National Equavisa tv stations the Sunday nite/Monday nite games on the local ESPN Deportes; albeit which is completely in Spanish. That may rank near the top of furthest Giants fan, as the distance is close to 5000 miles from NY; a 6 1/2 hour flight from JFK airport. Do you find this valuable? |

Spanish you say! Well we all have to make sacrifices! I'm with you though, story sounds exactly like me except for the part about the two houses and the beach in a foreign country and the part about going there for the winter months, and the fairly sweet (modest,I like it) computer. Otherwise, identical! I'm thinking about cable for the Garage! Might be over the top though!

"Funny stuff...I'll send you some pics of my beach...we can chill out there together and watch the Giants, and I didn't mentioned the best part is that I can listend to the games without having to put up with the clowns at FOX, esp. that jerk Joe Buck, and his Cowgirl sidekick Troy. Btw, the local beer sucks but Heinkens are only $9.00 a six-pack at the only store that sells them!! Do you find this valuable? |

"OK; with all the many Giant fans transplanted from the NY/NJ area, who resides the furthest from Giant or Yankee Stadium? I live in Ft. Lauderdale area since 1989, originally from Hollis Queens.Hello, from Northern California, GMen11 - I am part of an active fan group that meets regularly at Ace's Sports Bar in San Francisco. I am now connecting with Giants fans from around the U.S. following the publication of my book "Making The Big Game: Tales of an Accidental Spectator". It's a part fan memoir and part unexpected road trip story (entirely true) that begins 10 days before kickoff of Super Bowl XLII and ends in the upper deck in Glendale AZ among life long Giants season ticket holders. My regional book tour in January that will make stops in New York, New Jersey, and just confirmed - Miami, FL on 1/26/10 at Books and Books in Coral Gables. Would love to meet South Florida fans on that trip. You can preview excerpts and find out more about it at www.MakingTheBigGame.com Do you find this valuable? |

Ok, I'm 67 born in Geneva, NY learned to love the Giants listening to them on the radio and then when my uncle got a TV I watched them with him. I now live in Rochester, NY and have been to the Meadowlands. I was able to buy 2 tickets from a friend whose father had 4 season tickets and was selling one game as he couldn't go and didn't want them to go to waste. The G-Men played the 49er's on opening night and it was on ESPN and they saw me on TV while all were at work. Good thing I went as that's where I told everyone I was going and there was caught on TV. My boys have made me proud and have made me cry and have made me mad but they are still my boys in blue and have been for 57 years.

I live in Montreal CA and travel to most of the home games. I was at yesterdays event and I don't believe that I have ever had a longer drive home after the game. It was one of the most embarrassing Giants game that I have ever witnessed, What a way to close Giant stadium.
