Mickey's Coming Up Roses!
Mickey Mouse will serve as the Grand Marshal for the 2005 Tournament of Roses. The beloved Disney Character will lead the family-themed New Year's Day celebration in Pasadena. As Grand Marshal, Mickey will represent the theme "Celebrate Family" to a worldwide television audience as he rides in the 116th Rose Parade, and as he tosses the coin before the 91st Rose Bowl Game on Jan. 1, 2005.
"Gosh, it sure is swell to be named the Grand Marshal of the Rose Parade and I can't wait to see everybody on Jan. 1 in Pasadena," said Mickey when accepting his role as the 2005 Tournament of Roses ambassador. "It's a big year for me with big doings for Disneyland's 50th Anniversary and all, but being in the Rose Parade is a great way to start the New Year!"
