Special Parade Announced for Disney World

Select Disney entertainment can only be enjoyed at special times throughout the year. Find out when you can check out this parade that only happens once every year.

“I’m Going to Disney World!”

A time-honored tradition has been to welcome victors from the Super Bowl in a special parade with Mickey Mouse. The Super Bowl tradition first started after Super Bowl XXI on January 25, 1987. A Disney commercial starred New York Giants quarterback Phil Simms.  

After the winning game, Simms was asked, “Now that you’ve won the Super Bowl, what are you going to do?” Simms responded, “I’m going to Disney World!” The payoff was $75,000.

NFL victors are then welcomed at Walt Disney World or, at times, Disneyland. The MVP joins Mickey Mouse in a triumphant parade to the delight of guests.
