Cameraman Pat Nowak, and audio tech Tony D'Annunzio spent the entire Super Bowl week with Gilbert Gottfried for ESPN2's Cold Pizza. Taking a decidedly un-athletic approach to the festivities, Gilbert led our boys on a merry chase that included a personalized tour of Detroit with Lomas Brown, a taste of the NFL Experience (training camp can't really be like this, can it?), taking a turn at being an ESPN host with help from Chris Berman, Michael Irving, and Joe Theisman, and plenty of off-beat interviews with players and celebrities. "I expected Gilbert to be as wacky and irreverent as his on-screen personality," commented Tony, "but I was surprised at how talented and gracious a host he turned out to be. We spent a lot of hours together, and it was a lot of work, but without a doubt we had a total blast!"
