Fan Gives Brady's Milestone Football To Hall At Patriot Place

BOSTON (CBS) -- A historic football has made its way back to Gillette Stadium.

With his fourth touchdown pass against the Ravens last Saturday night, Tom Brady passed both Joe Montana and Brett Favre and now sits atop the all-time list with 46 postseason touchdown passes.

Receiver Brandon LaFell caught the record-breaking and game-winning 23-yard touchdown pass, and after doing so, handed the ball to a fan in the front row. That fan, Lisa Picard from New Hampshire, was back at Gillette on Thursday to present the ball for display at The Hall at Patriot Place.

"Tom Brady worked harder for that ball than I did, for sure," Picard said Thursday.

For her generosity, Picard received upgraded seats to Sunday's AFC Championship game against the Indianapolis Colts, pre-game field passes and tickets to the tailgate party. She also received a signed photo of Brady.

That ball, and many other artifacts representing milestones from the 2014 season, will be on display this weekend ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship game against the Indianapolis Colts.

The Hall is also home to New England's previous seven AFC Championship trophies, which are on display for all to see leading up to Sunday's game.
