Super Bowl XLII Helmets on Display at Sports Museum of America
According to Giants.com, you can go see the helmet against which New York Giants’ wide receiver David Tyree pinned the ball making “the catch”, and the helmet of quarterback and Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning at the Sports Museum of America (SmA) (www.sportsmuseum.com) located in historic Lower Manhattan. The Sports Museum of America will display the helmets, which are on loan from the New York Giants through the summer before they permanently move to The Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, OH this fall.
Jonathan Tisch said, “David Tyree’s catch and the Cinderella story of the New York Giants have already become the stuff of Super Bowl legend. We are thrilled to be able to share with our fans an intimate look at the fabled helmets right here in New York City at the Sports Museum of America.”
The Founder and CEO of Sports Museum of America, Phillip Schwalb, had this to say, “This exhibit is exactly what we’ve set out to do – bring sports history directly, and personally, to the fans as it’s happening. There are great new moments in sports being made every week, and we are proud that thousands of visitors from around the world can view these artifacts and celebrate the magical, historic moment they represent.”
