The Giants are heading to the playoffs for the first time in six years, so in celebration Clifton Elementary School hosted a pep rally today to cheer on the team.

Former Giant Brandon Landon was on hand for the festivities. He was joined by two-time Super Bowl champs Ahmad Bradshaw and Jonathan Casillas.

"This is something that as a kid when you see some of your idols some of the people you see on TV actually come in you get a chance to high five then throw a football that's something that lasts with you forever," says Landon.

Fifth grader Ethan Crowley says he is a big Giants fan and was so happy to meet some of the players.

The Giants take on the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.
