Super bowl MVP

[PinMan]

is he in the parade the next day ?

Maybe not.

In 2015, two players were in the Disneyland parade on Monday. In 2016, Manning also went to Disneyland, but didn't do a commercial.

It depends on where the Super Bowl is which way they go. From Houston, could go either way.

Moving this to the Theme Parks board.

I'm hoping it's Disneyland, since we'll be at The World. We're going to spend Sunday night at the Magic Kingdom specifically since so many people will be at bars and in their rooms staring at the TV.

BIL was at WDW when GB won a while back. It is not much other than being in a parade. Imagine the feeling of the MVP there. They won the Super Bowl, partying with the team until wee hours, then hop a flight to WDW/DL with almost no sleep, then have to go through all the contracted regalia. To top it off, they are not allowed to do much. He happened across Rodgers down a back alley off Main St. He exited the back door of one of the stores and Rodgers was sitting there almost asleep. Before anyone could stop him, BIL asked for an autograph. Rodgers refused. BIL was a little upset about it, but thought afterwards. Rodgers is contracted NOT to sign. Disney has high $$$ events later that people pay big money to get those autographs at.

The only way to answer the question is to wait until after the game Sunday and find out who the MVP is, whether or not he wants to go to either place, what his schedule is like and what his family schedule is like if he chooses to take them with him. Realize that both teams as of today are in Houston so away from their families. I know one year, the MVP said he was going to Disney World with his family but he was going home first to be with them and then they would go. I think they were there Thursday. So, you never know.

It may not even be the MVP. Manning went last year to DL and he wasn't the MVP.

The date, time and which park (MK or DL) depends on what works for the star. It could, and most likely will be the next day, but it could also be a day later. Which coast its on also depends on the star, not where the game is played.

Very true. With this Super Bowl, both teams are on the East Coast so I would imagine Disney World would be the choice. However, the player who goes to Disney could have his whole family with him and decide just to go. But, that could mean missing the celebration in the hometown. Or, the MVP might not even be with the winning team. That has happened. So, best to wait until February 6th to find out what is going on.

Has a MVP ever took his family to any park right after the game for this parade? As posted above he generally is on property or even in Florida only a few hours. There are usually way too many commitments like late night talk shows and other media outlets.

Also in years past the parade could be anytime in the week after the game. I think now, at least for the past few years its always been the Monday after like its part of the contract with the NFL.

Just in case you missed it, the parade was at WDW this year and the star was not the MVP.

My CM friend befriended Mickey for this parade. Mickey said James White, Patriots' running back had a great time:
