The five most memorable moments from Peyton Manning's ESPY win

QB Peyton Manning was on hand at the 2015 ESPY Awards where he won best 'Record Breaking Performance' after clinching the NFL career record for touchdown passes with 509.

The confetti has fallen, the stars have headed home and the red carpet has been taken away but the Broncos Country is still celebrating quarterback Peyton Manning's ESPY win.

Wednesday night, Manning took home the ESPY for 'Best Record Breaking Performance' after breaking Brett Favre's NFL record for career touchdown passes with No. 509 in October against the 49ers.

The night was nothing short of memorable for Manning and Denver, but here are our top five most memorable moments from his victory.

1. The three kings

Peyton Manning.

LeBron James.

Derek Jeter. 

Combined, the trio equal up to 39 all-star appearances and the most epic picture ever that almost broke the Internet.

Last night, Jeter took home the award for 'Lifetime Achievement' and James won for 'Best Championship Performance.'

2. Manning and Mosley

Perhaps the cutest moment of the night was Manning's date for the evening, his daughter Mosley.

After Manning accepted his award, Mosley made her way on stage to take pictures with her dad following his win. This made for the most adorable father-daughter picture:

3. "Records are set to be broken"

When Manning tallied his 509th career touchdown pass in 2014, he surpassed quarterback legend Brett Favre, then the holder of the NFL record. 

But Favre isn't holding any grudges against Manning, reminding everyone that "records are set to be broken."

4. Favre the babysitter

Manning and Favre are definitely on good enough terms that Manning joked that Favre was babysitting his daughter during his acceptance speech. "I want to first thank my daughter Mosley for being my date tonight," Manning said. "She's over there getting babysat by Brett Favre in her seat over there."

Check out his entire acceptance speech below:

5. Reliving the moment

Maybe the best moment of all was just the opportunity for the Broncos fans to relive #Peyton509 again.

Let's watch it again together:
