Actually it was Loews Theaters. He bought 50% of the Giants in 1991. I just hope they don't drag his family out on the field before the game and have his grandchildren sing the national anthem. I mean don't misunderstand me, I believe in giving respect to the deceased, but that's a little over the edge.
