On Sunday night, the New England Patriots defeated the Atlanta Falcons in overtime to win Super Bowl LI. After that huge game, it will be James White of the Patriots “going to Walt Disney World!”
Running back James White was not the MVP of Super Bowl LI as that honor belongs to Tom Brady, but he will get the distinct privilege of heading to Magic Kingdom and riding in a parade on Monday, Feb. 6, 2017.
UPDATE: The exact time of the parade with James White is now known to be 2:25 p.m. ET as stated by Disney. Stay tuned to Doctor Disney tomorrow on Facebook for news, pictures, and coverage.
Per the Disney Parks Blog:
Super Bowl hero James White had an extraordinary performance to lead his team to a record-setting Super Bowl title Sunday night in Houston, so it shouldn’t be a surprise what he’s going to do next.
He’s going to Disney World!
Yep, White was the hero of the game, catching 14 passes for 110 yards and scoring three touchdowns, including the game-winner in overtime, in his team’s 34-28 win, completing the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history. So naturally after the victory – the first overtime win ever in the Super Bowl – White announced that he is coming to Disney World to celebrate, continuing a Disney tradition that has endured for 30 years.
And we’ll be ready for him when he arrives. We have a magical parade planned for Monday afternoon at Magic Kingdom to celebrate the championship win. White, the team’s star running back, will be joined in the parade by Mickey Mouse and his pals, who will be engulfed in a sea of confetti as they proceed down Main Street, U.S.A.
Afterwards, White will enjoy some fun time in the park before we’ll whisk him away so he can keep the celebrations going back home.
