Disney confirms it will not host a Super Bowl parade at Walt Disney World this year

Feb 05, 2021 in "Magic Kingdom"

Posted: Friday February 5, 2021 12:14pm ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Disney has today confirmed the unsurprising news that it will not host the annual Super Bowl parade down Main Street U.S.A. at the Magic Kingdom this year.

COVID-19 restrictions have prevented Disney from hosting any parades since the parks reopened back in July 2020, and this includes hosting special events with guests in attendance.

Disney has said however that it will continue the time-honored tradition of featuring the Super Bowl star player in the iconic “I’m Going to Disney World!” commercial on Sunday night after the game.

That was last year, The Chiefs Lost the Super Bowl this year, They had Rob Gronkowski at the park this year, unofficially of course

Yes, theres always great memes that get posted about everything. Some are extremely hilarious. Never lose your sense of humor !!

While I like his music, I really did not care for the half-time show this year. But I absolutely mentioned to my husband that they were wearing jock straps! 🤣 There were a whole lot of memes but a few a my favs were...

I knew they werent jock straps, but on a football field the connection sure appeared to be there. Wasnt aware of the accident and apparently many others missed the connection of bandages to his accident and to the song because theres plenty of memes going out about the jock strap dancers at the SB. Maybe there should have been some message prior to the dance filling in those of us who are not followers of his music.

I actually found out the "jock straps" had to do with one of his songs. He had a pretty bad auto accident and needed reconstructive surgery. Those were bandages, not jock straps.

Less than meh. Sound was horrible, bad video, and what was that dancing with jock straps on their heads? Didnt anyone think to mention to them how this would appear? At first glance I immediately thought we were getting a Monty Python skit on the field.

Meh.

Rob Gronkowski actually dented one the Patriots Lombardi trophies clowning around with.

Bucs had a floating boat parade in Tampa Bay. Brady tossed the Lombardi Trophy from one boat to another. That would be hilarious if the trophy was dropped and sank to the bottom of the waters of Tampa Bay.
