This weekend was SuperBowl Sunday - a season long end of National Football League.
Here is a brief description of the Game.
The competetion started in Mid August and ended with a final between New York Giants and New England Patriots.
Giants were underdogs and Patriots had had a clean season - they had won all their 16 games in the Tournament and were favorites to win. But in the end the Best Team Won.
To pay respect to a brilliant win - I attended the Giants victory parade (locally called as Ticker Tape Parade) in Manhattan (called in sick :( at the office :)). Here are some pics.....
Go GIANTS!!!!!
The li'll GIANT
The Enron Ticker Shards
The FANS
Most Valuable Player (MVP) Eli Manning
The Spirit of New York
The Victory Paper Trail
I like to attend such events - where for those moments everyone becomes one - there is no difference between classes, race, color, sexes - its just mass Hysteria. Here is a link to additional pitures.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.....
