The Giants will celebrate the 25th anniversary of their first Super Bowl championship when they play their home opener Monday night in MetLife Stadium against the St. Louis Rams.

Members of the Giants 1986 Super Bowl team will sign autographs for fans prior to Monday night's contest against the St. Louis Rams at MetLife Stadium, the team announced today. The autograph session will take place from 7:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. and will be located at the stadium's four main entrances: MetLife, Verizon, Budweiser, and Pepsi Gates. All fans in line will receive a commemorative 25th anniversary 5"x7" autograph card*.

In addition, several members from the '86 team will participate in a fan Q&A session on the MetLife stage, located on the West Plaza. Hosted by NBC-4's Bruce Beck, the Q&A will take place in concurrence with the autograph session.

Prior to kickoff, the Giants will make a special presentation to honor Sgt. Dakota Myer, a U.S. Marines Corps veteran who this week received the Medal of Honor, the nation's highest award for valor, from President Obama. Myer is the first living Marine recipient of the award since the Vietnam War.

At halftime, the Giants will pay celebrate the 1986 Super Bowl championship. The players in attendance will be on the field as part of a special ceremony.

There will be video presentations and tributes throughout the night honoring the 1986 champions.

This season marks the 25th anniversary of the Giants first Super Bowl victory. The team will be honored with a special halftime ceremony at Monday night's game. Fans can also relive and celebrate the unforgettable year throughout the season. The Giants have produced and will host a series of events, activities, memorabilia and programming, commemorating the 1986 Super Bowl winning team.

*The Giants encourage fans to arrive early and be patient about entering the stadium on Monday night. The enhanced security procedures at the stadium gates recommended by the NFL will increase the comfort and safety of fans at the game, but will require some additional time for inspections at the gates. Fans are asked to come early, enjoy the best tailgating tradition in the NFL, and take advantage of the video boards and other new amenities outside MetLife Stadium.

In order to accommodate this security enhancement, guests are asked to arrive earlier than normal to avoid longer security lines at the checkpoints. Guests may refuse inspections; however, stadium management reserves the right to refuse entry.
