That was exactly the case, however, Wednesday evening when six members of the New York Giants visited New York City Fire Department Ladder Company 3.
“It’s truly an honor just to be here. These are the real everyday heroes. What they do for people every day on a regular basis – I just feel really privileged to be able to be around them,” said second-year linebacker Devon Kennard.
Kennard, along with Jon Beason, Josh Brown, Zak DeOssie, Markus Kuhn and Julian Talley, spent several hours taking a tour of the firehouse, which celebrates its 150th anniversary this Friday – also the 14th anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks.
