NFL Pro Bowl Coming To Orlando in 2017

I agree except not all of the NFL players have multi-million dollar contracts. Sure all are making $250,000 or more a year but not everyone is making $1+ million.

Yeah, but players who need the $50K and trip aren't the players who sell tickets.

Thanks for your responses! Also concerned about a parade in WDW causing larger crowds. I guess that would be only one day, so that would be a day to avoid MK. Maybe I'm worrying too much about this.

For the last week in January, I would say so. What's it going to do...push the crowds from "lightest" to "light?"

And very little is inside the parks it sounds, so WWoS and D Springs will get more visits. If it brings enough "additional" guests in I suppose that could bump up park crowds when they are not at P Bowl events.

I would be shocked if there wasn't some presence of the NFL and / or its players in the parks for "Pro Bowl Week". Even if its only NFL players being parade marshal's or autograph signings in various places in the parks I don't see either the NFL or Disney missing out on a chance to cross-promote especially with the younger demographic / kids WDW provides. Expect the ESPN Club to be a happening place during that week. My guess they just haven't finalized a lot of the plans yet. This may not be an event that will cause havoc around all of WDW, but there aren't many special events that can. This will certainly bring large crowds to at least certain areas of the parks at times. Just the additional media coverage alone and hoopla that entails will make a noticeable difference.

I hope your right on that, sounds so fun.

Although I do kinda consider WWOS and DS as parks like I do water parks, and the BW like you say.
