"The emotion was out of this world, what an experience," said Lou Lecce, a Giants fan.

"You could feel your heart beating through your chest, you feel like you are part of the team almost, like you have a hand in the outcome," said Mike Lecce, his son.

The father and son won tickets to the game in a Center for Disability Services auction. That is where they meet Hakeem Nicks just a week before they watched him play.

"Very laid back athlete, said to us 'it's going to be a hell of a game, make sure you go.' I said 'I'll be there,'" said Lou.

So were locals Jessica and Ed Haddad. Jessica won tickets in a drawing. We asked them what was most memorable.

"It was unbelievable," said Jessica.

Jessica couldn't think of just one thing.

As for her dad...

"The fact my lovely daughter thought of her dad to bring to the Super Bowl," said Ed.

The Raimo family has the perfect place for all of their new Giants memorabilia, in their Giants room. Strong memories will be attached to it all.

"The first two points, the safety, you could hear the place roar. You could feel the stadium shaking," said Jackson Raimo. "When Brady threw the ball the stadium went quiet. When the ball hit the ground we heard the roar hit the bottom deck and it worked its way up."

"I enjoyed seeing him enjoy it. To see him enjoy it, to get a feel for the Giants, the togetherness we had at the game," said Jim Raimo, his dad.

That is exactly what each fan told us Monday night. They will remember who they were with and who they met.
