Summary
Tiki Barber and Evan Roberts reflect on the 25th anniversary of 9/11, honoring the firefighters, police officers and other heroes who risked and lost their lives trying to save others. Tiki recalls returning to New York after the Giants played in Denver the night before the attacks, while Evan shares what it felt like experiencing that terrifying day from Washington, D.C. They also remember how sports helped New York begin to feel normal again, from Mike Piazza’s unforgettable home run to the Giants returning to the field. Twenty-five years later, the memories remain vivid, even as a younger generation now knows September 11 only as history.
