Very glad to see that it lasted for a little while today and from the sounds of it the crowd on hand was pretty into it and packed with celebrity/ex players and that there was a ceremony ready to roll once the match was over.
Given that this is likely the pinnacle for both guys at this tournament/possibly career (no idea if Mahut is playing doubles or if he's just flat out done, but it's really hard to imagine Isner going much of anywhere in either category at this point) it's nice to see them get some recognition from the tournament itself.
