Haitian American Jason Pierre-Paul

(21-17) in Indianapolis.
There were many viewers to follow
Haitian on NBC this final Super Bowl
because of their fellow Giants who
had pointed out in several phases of
the game.
Jason Pierre-Paul, nicknamed JPP,
was born on January 1, 1989 in
Deerfield Beach, Florida of Haitian
parents who emigrated to USA in
1983.
Four years after their success at
the Super Bowl against the Patriots,
the New York Giants have returned to

fourth time.
Tens of thousands of fans including
hundreds of Haitians attended

Giants.
Note that American football is not a
well-known sport in Haiti, Haitians
prefer the European football called
soccer in the United States.
