Awesome, I remember my Dad picking me up early from

Hebrew school for the Giants / Vikings playoff game in '94.. i was so excited.

Now I complain about going to Sunday night / Monday night / Thursday night games because of the traffic and waking up for work the next day.. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for posting that, Jay

What a special moment for that kid. Not to mention those parents!! The love is palpable.

That is the good stuff in life right there.
That's awesome!

I brought my 8 year old son to his first game this summer against the Jets in pre-season. He also loves OBJ, has his jersey but isn't really into watching football on Sundays. I figured let me try and bring him to a game, preseason is cheaper if he doesn't like it we leave at half time. He absolutely loved it! Our seats are right next to the tunnel the players come out of in the corner of the end zone. He was getting high fives as they were going on the field. He got a signed 8x10 of Dwayne Harris from someone sitting next to us. Didn't want to leave when the scrubs came out to play in the 3rd quarter. Didn't stop asking questions about the plays or the rules. Now doesn't stop asking me to take him to another game. It feels good to be able to share my passion with him. Proud daddy moment right there!
That is awesome

My son just turned 5 and he has no interest in sports yet. I hope some day that grows into it as I would love to share moments like that with him.
I am a little jealous...

I am a season ticket holder, and my son has never shown any interest in football at all. Maybe in time, he will come around, but not an inkling of wanting to go, even though I have tried to bribe him. We live in NH so it is a long day with a lot of travel. Here's hoping my fortunes will change.
I'd probably have the same reaction today

Exact same reaction I had when I was a kid.

are we sure he wasn't reacting to the thought of seeing the Giants Oline in person lol.

Seriously great video!
At least it wasn't the first game of the season too

That would be an extremely mean thing to do to a little kid.
Pretty sure  
HoustonGiant : 9/18/2017 5:00 pm : link
he's just excited about the hot dogs.
i am pretty sure he is still crying after that debacle

Kept hoping  
Jay in Toronto : 9/19/2017 10:46 am : link
he was still a Giants fan after that during the game.

I think we forget how big this stuff can be when we were young.

Good on his Mom's boss. He must feel great.
