The NFL Films story is that they asked Hank to mic up and, at first, he said no. Then, in his hotel room the day of the game, they had a meeting with him and it turned out he was negotiating for money and would agree on condition that they pay him in cash.
I don't recall perfectly if they gave him the payment (I tend to think they did), but, nevertheless, a deal was struck, Hank agreed, and history was made.
The NFL Films guys said they thought Hank was hamming it up for the mic. Lenny has also said that, during that game, Hank would give him plays unnecessarily and explain them in detail.
