Happy New Year!
And what New Year would be complete without recalling the wonder of the Orange Bowl. It was a legendary sports stadium that was home to the only Perfect Season in the NFL and a college football home-winning streak that was unrivalled.

Next, what New Year celebration about the Orange Bowl would be complete without discussing one of the most enduring, exciting and exquisite holiday parades to ever surround a major collegiate bowl event: The Orange Bowl Parade.

While both the stadium and the parade have now faded into history, the incredible impact they had brought both Miami and South Florida to national and international prominence.

If you ever attended either, or both, this is the episode you've been waiting for. Take a TALK Down Memory Lane for the Tale of the Orange Bowl.
