Last night I lived every football fans dream. Legends of the gridiron gathered at the Waldorf-Astoria to recognize the NFL's acceptance of the International Radio and Television Society Foundation's Gold Medal Award, and I had the incredible opportunity to accompany our sports anchor Sal Marchiano to the event. Brushing shoulders with the likes of Lynn Swann and Warren Sapp, there was so much Super Bowl bling, I needed sunglasses. In my role as producer, I shuttled Giant's greats like Frank Gifford, Ottis Anderson, and George Martin over to Sal for some one on one interviews. Video after the jump.

Featured in this blog is Sal's interview with Mr. Gifford. The former Half-Back talks about the "greatest game ever played" (a highly contest statement after last year), between his NY Giants and the Baltimore Colts in the 1958 NFL Championship. A chance to hear from the horse’s mouth about such a historic event really brings the game into perspective. Enjoy!
