About Gametime · Long Valley, NJ

It started in a parking lot.

It started with one Giants fan who threw the best tailgate in the lot. People couldn’t stop talking about the food. That tailgate became Gametime Catering — and Dan still runs every event himself.

How we got here

From the back of the lot to four hundred guests.

Gametime wasn’t built in a boardroom. It was built one Sunday at a time — grills, friends, and a reputation for feeding a crowd better than anybody else in the parking lot.

  1. Early 2000s

    A Giants fan in the lot

    Dan Marney — Brooklyn-born, Jersey-raised — was always in the Giants Stadium parking lot before games, grilling, mixing, and roasting for a crew of friends.

  2. The party grows

    Gametime Catering is born

    The tailgates kept getting bigger until they’d absorbed the ones around them. Enough people raved about the food and the experience that Dan realized he had something worth building.

  3. The MetLife era

    From the lot to the operation

    A new stadium brought new energy. Gametime grew into a full event-catering operation — gourmet food, full setups, entertainment, the works.

  4. Today

    Corporate & group gamedays

    Now Gametime primarily hosts corporate and large-group game-day parties across New Jersey — while still throwing the best private tailgate in the lot.
