Starved for a little football on Sundays with the entire sports world shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic? Well, you’re in luck because FOX is going to re-air Super Bowl XLII between the New York Giants and New England Patriots on Sunday, April 12 at 3:00 p.m. ET.
However, this program will come with a bit of the twist as the Giants plan to optimize the re-telling their legendary accomplishment with a two-screen experience and a ton of behind-the-scenes information and footage.
To help amplify what John Mara calls “the greatest victory we ever had as a franchise,” the Giants are launching a special second-screen platform delivered by FedEx to help fans more closely experience the Super Bowl re-air. Fans are encouraged to follow @Giants on Twitter throughout the weekend for rare behind-the-scenes footage, including a closer look at Tyree’s forgettable Friday practice, Tom Coughlin’s speech to the team the night before the game and an inside perspective during several key moments, including the final game-winning drive.
Additionally, real-time analysis of the game will be provided by the players who were on the field, there will be a live post-game Q&A on Twitter and the team will run a giveaway featuring a David Tyree signed football.
Still need more? Giants Wire will be live-tweeting the game and providing both pre- and post-game articles with unique stories or advanced analytical features that were more uncommon at the time.
