Social engineering at the Giants party
Social engineering at the Giants party
A Giants fan with more brass than most found a way to crash his heroes' victory party and make it look easy. Joe Whelan, who lives in Manhattan, simply took a seat with the team on the stage at City Hall Park Tuesday, rode with the Mara family out to Giants Stadium and even basked in the cheers of thousands as he stood on the field - all because nobody stopped him. Nobody had said boo to him at any of the security checkpoints. Wearing a Giants cap and an Eli Manning jersey, Whelan said he later nervously "blended in" with the group and got on buses that took everybody to Giants Stadium.
