Giants Stadium Offers Prayer Area After Muslim Outcry

POSTED: 7:32 am EST November 23, 2005

NEWARK, N.J. -- The New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority said it will provide a special area for anyone who wants to pray at Giants Stadium or the Continental Airlines Arena.

That's in response to Muslim groups' outcries after several fans who prayed at a New York Giants game were detained and questioned by the FBI in September.

The five men claimed they were singled out because of their Islamic faith, but the FBI said they were in a sensitive area near the stadium's main air intake duct.

Former President George H.W. Bush was on hand that night as part of a fundraising campaign he and former President Bill Clinton were leading for victims of Hurricane Katrina.
