January 2, 1994

Our next door neighbor at that time had a couple of sets of Giants season tickets- one pair through his job, and one pair he personally owned. Once in a while he'd not need all of them, and make one or more available to me and/or my father. (For those not from the northeast, every ticket to every Giants game is a season ticket, has been going back decades, and the waiting list to get them is 30 to 40 years, so seeing a game in person was a rare treat.) Usually it was the personal pair, in an end zone corner. On this day, it was his much better work tickets- 40 yard line, lower level, just under the mezzanine. Giants played the Cowboys, last game of the regular season, and lost in OT. Since the Giants still finished with an 11-5 record, they would be going to the playoffs as a wild card.
