We all know the famous fans. You have Barrel Man in Denver. You have Fireman Ed in New York. You also have Sondra Fortunato, or Ms. Football, who is a huge fan of the Giants. And by huge, I mean huge. And by fan, I mean "dresses up in a Santa outfit with two bags of presents that crusty men would enjoy a lot more than the kiddos."Fortunato has been going to Giants games for over 30 years, but her latest "outfit" got her escorted out of the stadium and stuck in the equivalent of a drunk tank.
Last Sunday, Sondra, whose niece, Paula, is divorcing Sumner Redstone, arrived at the Meadowlands in a tiara, fishnets, a Santa outfit, a bathing-suit bottom and high-heeled boots. "Nothing was showing," she insisted. "You couldn't even see my underwear. I don't flash!"
She carried a suitcase containing Christmas presents, and held a pair of 11-by-17 signs. One read, "Go Giants." The other, "Have a No Guns Christmas."
According to the report, Fortunato was snagged by security and told, "Can't you come to the stadium dressed like a regular person?"
I have to say, after checking her website for a few minutes and hearing her side of the story, I think Plaxico Burress can rest assured he isn't the craziest person to ever inhabit Giants Stadium.
Fortunato, a middle-aged woman, compared herself to Madonna once, which at this point would be like a college running back comparing himself to O.J. Simpson in his prime. Yeah, probably not the best example possible.
If you haven't yet, just click to see the picture of her. Honestly, it is like a parents' nightmare, only with a sash.
