Fan's replica of old Giants Stadium is way cooler than the original

10/22/2012

As obsessions go, put Don Martini's on the scale somewhere between charming and crazy. Oh, he's a New York Giants fan, and has mountains of memorabilia to prove it. But his real mania is building stuff, and so he combined the two by clearing out a garage behind his New Jersey bagel shop (selling an antique car to do so) and constructing a $20,000 replica of old Giants Stadium. For two years, he cut 65,000 seats, installed end-zone "teletrons," and even included working lights, elevators and trolleys that the razed old stadium never had. The Giants have expressed interest in displaying it, but then what would Martini do? "Maybe I could build another one," he said. [Source]
