Dozens of young New York Gi­ants fans jumped on the hoods, trunks and tops of cars and bus­es along the pa­rade route through low­er Man­hat­tan yes­ter­day, part­ly mar­ring an oth­er­wise joy­ous event de­signed to cel­e­brate the foot­ball team's Su­per Bowl vic­to­ry.

At least four dif­fer­ent in­ci­dents were caught on video­tape around the in­ter­sec­tion of Reade Street and Broad­way.

Dur­ing one of them, young­sters ganged up on a yel­low taxi and smashed its wind­shield with their el­bows de­spite a wom­an's ef­forts to pull them off the car.

The scenes were rem­i­nis­cent of oth­ers oc­ca­sion­al­ly played out world­wide fol­low­ing key sport­ing events.

Much of the may­hem was caught on video­tape by me­dia out­lets, in­clud­ing news­day.com.

Bus­es, vans and even po­lice ve­hi­cles were not im­mune, as a few of the es­ti­mat­ed 3 mil­lion peo­ple as­sem­bled to catch a glimpse of Eli Man­ning, David Tyree and oth­er Gi­ants at the pa­rade climbed on­to cars, per­haps ini­tial­ly to get a bet­ter view, but then whipped them­selves in­to a fren­zy.

Some of the overzeal­ous cel­e­brat­ing took place out­side the view of po­lice of­fi­cers, but of­fi­cers did rein in sev­er­al row­dy rev­el­ers. Au­thor­i­ties said they ar­rest­ed at least 30 peo­ple and charged them with crim­i­nal mis­chief for at­tack­ing un­marked po­lice ve­hi­cles.

No es­ti­mates on the ex­tent of dam­ages were avail­able yes­ter­day.
