Once giants fans were done checking themselves out in the Super Bowl trophy, they got a second treat; the rare chance to get a close look at the championship ring
The ring, dubbed by retired giant Michael Strahan the "ten table ring" because it can be seen from 10 tables away, was made specifically for the Giants by luxury jeweler, Tiffany and Co. It consists of 1.5 carats of diamonds, and is made of white gold. The ring has three footballs on it, symbolizing their three championship wins. It's estimated to cost roughly $35,000.
"You look over there and you see that trophy, then you think about February when they won that game. It was an amazing game. It's a game I still get tingles when I think about", added another die hard fan.
The trophy and ring was only on display from noon until two pm, Friday afternoon.
