Amidst the excitement happening on the field, the Electronic Security Association (ESA) held its Leadership Awards presentation on a level of the stadium that overlooks the magnificent playing field and the world’s largest LED display made by Mitsubishi at 72-ft. high by 160-ft. wide on each of its four sides.
 
Among the awards presented on Tuesday evening, Jan. 11, were the new 2011 ESA Best Practices Awards, with winners announced in five categories:

The ESA/NTS Training Coordinator of the Year was given to Gary Talma of ADT Security Services.
