The N.Y. Giants at UAlbany, Aug. 1-20; Fans Catch the Spirit
August, 2010
The New York Giants travel to UAlbany for the fifteenth consecutive summer, the longest period at one site in the team's training camp history. The Giants have trained on the UAlbany campus, just 2 1/2 hours north of the New Meadowlands Stadium, since 1996. In the 14 years that the Giants have trained at UAlbany, the preseason camp has averaged more than 33,000 fans per summer. The camp attendance mark of 46,960 was established last year, the fourth time figures have surpassed 40,000-plus. One of the fields used is now known as Mara-Tisch Field, and was dedicated on Aug. 16, 2007 in honor of the team's former owners Wellington Mara and Robert Tisch.
Students participate in more than 200 student clubs and honor societies, and enjoy a busy calendar of campus events.
