Giants cut down the pranks but ramp up the dancing in camp

Back when the Giants held training camp at the University of Albany, the camaraderie of the team often developed in the dorm rooms, where pranks and unwinding was a fixture of summer.

Nowadays, the Giants hold camp at their team facility and players spend their nights at the team-designated hotel. Thus, the advent of expansive dance parties inside the team locker room.

“Now … there’s not much time at the hotel,’’ Eli Manning said Monday. “You get done late and you’re kind of back in your room. So, that time has kind of come into the locker room during the day, where you get little breaks where I guess they’ve turned into dance parties now.
