Thousands gathered in lower Manhattan on Tuesday morning to watch the Super Bowl champion New York Giants parade down the Canyon of Heroes. One woman was there to see the New York Jets.
When asked by a NBC reporter who she most wanted to see at the parade, a young woman in a Giants Super Bowl T-shirt made an interesting request:
Make all the jokes you'd like about how she was enjoying what was in that Giants tumbler a little too much. And, sure, if she frequents New York nightclubs, there's a 30 percent chance Mark Sanchez has introduced himself to her anyways.
