Where is Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning?
"Canyon of Heroes" has been the site of many
spectacular ticker tape parades through the years.
“It was the 177th ticker-tape parade up Broadway and the first since 2000,when the Yankees defeated the Mets to win the World Series.”

“New York Giants” take down the New England Patriots on Fox this past Sunday. The broadcast, which attracted 65% of all viewers watching TV that evening, according to Nielsen, was the second-highest-rated program of all time. It fell just short of the final episode of M*A*S*H* in 1983, which was seen by 106
million people. ”

“Big Bule’s fans let out those long pent-up cheers for a team that was not supposed to make it to the Super Bowl, but did, and a team that wasn’t supposed to beat the Patriots, but did.”

It is my first time to attend a ticker-tape parade.
“Fifty tons of recycled paper fluttered gracefully down on the Canyon of Heroes in a city that was denied real snow for all of January---and a victory celebration for so much longer.”
