Giants announcer Bob Papa drops birthday cake on air

Personal foul, Bob Papa, dropping the cake.

Broadcasting the Giants-Jets preseason game Saturday night on television with former Giants linebacker Carl Banks, who turned 53 on Saturday, Papa was going to give Banks a birthday cake the production staff made.

"You're No. 58, but you're not 58 on your birthday," Papa said before grabbing the cake from off screen. Papa then tried to tilt the cake to show it off to the camera, but he tiled it too much and the cake fell right on the floor.

"Ohhhhh!" Banks exclaimed while throwing his hands up in the air.
