NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York Giants' Super Bowl victory will be celebrated in typical New York City style, with a ticker-tape parade through the Canyon of Heroes.

Members of the NFL champion Giants will be showered with a mile of confetti in a parade up Broadway on Tuesday. Then, in a ceremony at City Hall, they'll be presented with symbolic keys to the city.

This is the second Super Bowl championship parade for the Giants in four years. They also beat the Patriots in the NFL title game in 2008.  

Tuesday's big hero undoubtedly will be Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning. The Giants quarterback and Mario Manningham connected on a clutch play, as the receiver made an over-the-shoulder catch along the sideline on the opening play of the game-winning drive.
