With 18 seconds left in the second quarter of Super Bowl XLIII between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals, the Cardinals were on first down at Pittsburgh’s 1-yard line. Arizona quarterback Kurt Warner then fired a pass intended for wide receiver Anquan Boldin, but was intercepted at the goal line by Steelers linebacker James Harrison, who then ran down the sideline for what was then the longest play in Super Bowl history, a 100-yard return for a touchdown as he was tackled by Cardinals wide receivers Larry Fitzgerald and Steve Breaston, giving his team a 17-7 lead at halftime.
