Rose Bowl Disneyland: December 27, 1966 Every year the two teams scheduled for the Rose Bowl game visit Disneyland at Anaheim. This year the teams are USC and Purdue. Rose Queen Barbara Hewitt, Disneyland Ambassador Marcia Miner and Mickey Mouse were on hand to greet the teams on their recent tour. Goofy was there too, to show opposing quarterbacks, Purdue's All-American Bob Griese, and USC's Troy Winslow a few pigskin tips. The players all had a few quick spins on Disneyland's varied, rides. Boilermaker coach Jack Mollenkopf said the side trip was one of the few his team would take away from the practice field before the big game on January 2nd. The squads also saw Disneyland's annual holiday attraction, Fantasy on Parade before taking a ride on the Mark Twain steamboat. At the end of the day the two teams had dinner at Disneyland, and if you like statistics--the Purdue team put a way 95 pounds of steak to the Trojans 83.
