Giants star Eli Manning kicked off his wedding weekend Thursday sweating on the golf course with his brother, Peyton, and four other buddies in Mexico.
The Super Bowl Most Valuable Player and his entourage came back sunburned and exhausted at lunchtime after a morning on the 27-hole Jack Nicklaus-designed Palmilla Golf Club.

Craig and Nancy Jacob said when a hurricane hit the Hawaiian Islands in September 1992, it made their wedding plans in paradise feel like an episode of “Survivor.”
But the Spring Lake couple had no idea their nightmare might one day be transformed into a dream vacation.
The Jacobs planned the perfect wedding — spending a week in the island of Kauai in Hawaii, and getting married in the tropical atmosphere with family and close friends. Little did they know that their wedding would be ruined when Hurricane Iniki changed its course.
“We found out that the hurricane would be heading for the island of Kauai on Friday, and our wedding was planned for Saturday,” Nancy said. “We had no clue about how bad the actual hurricane would be.”
On Friday afternoon, the hurricane struck with a vengeance that lasted six hours. The couple spent the afternoon and into the night with their 30 guests all crammed in a tiny condominium bathroom.
After the hurricane passed, the entire town was destroyed.
The Jacobs were recently chosen as finalists for the Farmers’ Almanac Worst Wedding Weather Contest, competing with nine other couples for a romantic honeymoon cruise with Royal Caribbean International.

What a way to turn a negative into a positive. This couple definitely deserves a honeymoon “do over.”
Andy Schiff and his girlfriend, Melanie Ufema, and two of their friends were mere feet away from emptying their pockets of loose change in the security line at Denver International Airport when Schiff suddenly stopped.
He dropped to one knee, and instead of loose change, pulled a diamond ring out of his pocket. “Melanie, will you marry me?” he asked.
Schiff’s buddy had a video camera rolling — he was in on it, and everyone had agreed they should “document the trip” — so it was pointed at a stunned but grinning Ufema when she said, “Yes.”
Schiff says he wasn’t really worried Ufema would say no. “She was going to be on an airplane with me for eight hours, and we were going to Maui for 10 days,” he says. “She couldn’t say no. It was a foolproof plan.”
It took just a few days in Hawaii, with its pristine beaches, sun-toasted breezes and 10-at-a-time whale sightings, for the Denverites to come up with another plan, one that would involve persuading all of their immediate family members and many of their closest friends to hop on planes a year later for the Maui wedding.
