- Saturday's matchup means New Jersey is now a state divided, at least for Giants and Eagles fans. Some say the university town of Princeton, New Jersey, is the dividing line that separates Giants from Eagles fans.
There have been surveys over the years finding more Giants fans north of Princeton, and total Eagles country south of Trenton. But there's also an east-west battle line finding deep green in counties like Hunterdon. "This has been a lifelong rivalry, so it is tough. We have a mutual respect for those Eagles fans, but I am hoping we kick some butt next week," Giants fan Susie Jairdullo said.
At the Tiger's Tale bar in Montgomery Township, CBS2's Christine Sloan found both Eagles and Giants fans peacefully mingling and planning watch parties. "I'm an expatriate from New York City so grew up with the Giants and I am still a Giants fan," said Simon Marchand. "We don't like each other's teams, unless they play the cowboys," Giants fan Roy Hansen said. The bartender says it gets interesting on game day, and he likes to keep the Giants and Eagles fans separated.
