Giants fan Giuliani won't sign Packers cap
The Associated Press
PUNTA GORDA, Fla. -- Rudy Giuliani badly needs to win Florida -- but that doesn't mean he'll risk jinxing his hometown team.
At a campaign stop in this southwest Florida town on Monday, the Republican presidential candidate refused to autograph a white Green Bay Packers cap. The New York Giants face the Packers in the NFC championship game on Sunday night in Green Bay.
"No, I won't sign that," the former New York City mayor says as he scribbles his name on a series of placards and papers. He has been spending almost every day here before Florida's Jan. 29 primary as it's his best chance to win a state before the Feb. 5 Super Tuesday contests.
"Oh, please," a man is heard pleading in the videotaped encounter posted on Fox News' Web site.
"No, no, no. That would be bad luck right now," Giuliani insists, almost recoiling from the green-emblazoned cap. "I'll sign it afterward."
A man barks back: "Sign it now."
But Giuliani wouldn't budge. "No."
Smiling, he kept signing everything else.
