"While we won’t be broadcasting the parade in 2023, we’d like to wish the Mummers Community and Philadelphia a Happy New Year. Best of luck to all the string bands, fancy brigades, comics, wenches and fancies as they strut their stuff on Broad Street. It was our pleasure to give you the best coverage and supplemental coverage we could. Enjoy our heritage material that goes back decades on PHL17.com."
