NY Giants owner's son gets into fight at NY Stock Exchange!!!

I saw this story on AOL. I guess violence has no class or profession.

Giants Violence: Wellington Mara's Son Chokes Eagles Fan
Posted Dec 20th 2006 8:17AM by Dan Benton
Filed under: NY Giants, NFC East


The Giants frustration due to failure runs deep; deeper than many realized. Yesterday it reached the New York Stock exchange and the son of Giants legendary owner Wellington Mara.

While Stephen Mara was there conducting his business, a long time broker and Philadelphia Eagles fan Bob Tomasulo felt the need to mock him. He did the Giants now famed "jump shot" and was teasing about the humiliating 36-22 loss on Sunday. Eventually he enraged Mara which led to some unexpected violence.

Mara, 47, eventually charged Tomasulo and "tackled" him onto a trading post. Tomasulo thought it was a joke until Mara began shouting obscenities and then proceeded to choke him. It got so violent that Tomasulo actually passed out for over a minute.


"Mara started screaming, 'I'm gonna f- - -ing kill you! Don't f- - - around with my family! Don't insult my family!' " one broker said.

Could it possibly get any more embarrassing for the Giants? I mean really, where does it stop? Apparently after Mara got done choking this guy out, he walked back over to his booth laughing it off.

Very good Mara. Just what the Giants needed, more bad press. As bad as the situation was however, this Eagles fan will have a fantastic Christmas now as he lawyers up. You just made him very rich!

He didn't pass out, he was dreaming of what he'd do with his half of the Giants. Thanks, Jeff, that's funny.

That's the problem with the stock market, all this white collar crime.

Was Mara at the Stock Exchange trying to get a quarter back?

OK, I'm sorry.
