On July 30, 2009 the Empire Supporters Club presented the first ever Legion of Honor distinction to the orignal club legend Giovanni Savarese in front of many loyal fans at the ESC’s home bar Nevada Smiths in downtown Manhattan.

The Legion of Honor serves as a supporters Hall of Fame, a distinction decided on by the supporters to pay tribute to the best players of all time both on the field and off it.

Below is the video of the presentation for those supporters that were unable to attend.
