Sometimes the true meaning of a neighbor comes from the most unexpected places. And sometimes the neighbor who sits next to you at a handful of football games for a few days a year has a more profound effect on you than the neighbor who has resided next door to your house for years. From 1994 until 2005, I was blessed with a great neighbor, Richard Newell, my next-door-neighbor in Section 125 of SHI Stadium.
It was 1994 and I purchased four Rutgers football season tickets. My father, two brothers and I were to start a tradition, Saturday afternoons in Piscataway.
