why is peyton manning changing up his pregame routine right before the biggest game? and the bronco who just got to california three days late. >> keep it classy, colorado. police agencies across the state have their security plans in place for super bowl sunday. they're asking you to celebrate in style. live with a lot of bronco madness at the king king soopers here, coming up. >> i love that. magnet madness all day today. good morning, everyone. thank you for joining us. we're pumped up. we want to get you set for

in store for you. marty coniglio and amelia earhart is standing by. >> we have the falsecos we get in the foothills. the radar will figure that out. as we look to the south and east, this is where the snow is. colorado springs, about half to a quarter inch of snow moving town through crowley and along highway 50. it is falling apart. we could see between half to an inch of snow. it started in melbourne county in the castle rock area and continued through the south throughout the night. cloudy skies this morning. we clear out in the afternoon. upper 30s and low 40s. it's warmer tomorrow. windy and cold on sunday.

hour, in about 20 minutes, we have extremely warm temperatures. we could use that to melt snow off the roads. amelia, it's super bowl friday. >> super bowl friday. it is friday lights, so, please, have a safe drive to work fridays always kickoff early around 4, 4:30. today we're seeing a nice easy start to the 5:00 and into the 6:00 hour. travel times between denver and not bad overall. not much to worry about if you're in the central corridor. if you're out near dtc and greenwood village. a near perfect start as well. near vasquez. northbound 25 looking good approaching the 76 split. we're in the mid-60s and after

across 225, we're still in the mid 60s. >> thank you for that. it is 532 right now. be a bronco. don't be a donkey. that's the message denver police is giving bronco fans who want to go out and celebrate after a big win on saturday night. they don't want to see any riots like years past. colleen ferreira joins us from downtown. police are already working on a security plan? >> they definitely are. we have to talk about this because of what happened in 1998 after the broncos won the super bowl. that's why i talked to denver police. they said they actually learned a lot from 1998. they are prepared if anything comes their way on sunday. i know it won't because i know all of you are going to behave on sunday. they're encouraging people to be prepared if the broncos win the super bowl. denver police started running public service announcements on their facebook page this week.

celebrate in style. this specific one you're looking at right now is a message from miles. be a bronco this weekend, don't be a donkey. hashtag don't be a donkey. tweet that so you get that engrained into your head. i checked with several agencies across colorado. they all have a plan to deal with anything that comes their way. they keep their security plans confidential for obvious reasons. a lot of them say they're not worried because they trust fans are going to respect their area when the broncos win the super bowl. cheryl, i'm looking at all the viewers, all the die hard broncos fans. i'm saying behave otherwise you're going to have to deal with me. >> oh,. now i know you're much tougher than you look, colleen. i'm listening. security is obviously so top of mind here too. there's a huge presence, but so

here on the california end. colleen, thank you. while denver fans are getting ready for their watch parties and celebrate, the players and coaches are putting the the finishing touches on their game plan. they have their final practice today. they're going to get up, get practicing. tomorrow will be exciting because they're going to walk through at levi stadium. they will get the first opportunity to walk through the tunnel and see the super bowl field. the panthers are practicing at san jose state university. the broncos are practicing at stanford in palo alto. both a 15 minute drive to their hotel. this is video provided by nfl film. while the broncos want to stay sharp, they say they don't want to overdo things too much either. >> we're just trying to polish right now and stay sharp and be short and get these guys as fresh as they can possibly be on sunday. >> my pregame routine has changed the past couple of

for a while, i do go out there and throw before the game. i take my body jordan sunshine taylor out there and mike harrington, our assistant equipment manager. we'll go out and throw some routes and come back in the locker room, get dressed and get ready to go out and play in super bowl 50. >> jordan sunshine taylor, maybe that's the lucky charm. you know, rain, wind, nothing could keep thunder away. thunder, the broncos mascot, that is. he finally arrived at the red barn. it's a stable outside of stanford yesterday. it took a couple of extra days for thunder to get here. >> thunder, are the denver broncos going to win the super bowl? >> that's a yes.

ended up taking four days to get here. his handlers thought it would take 22 hours drive time but because of the snow storm, it took four days. thunder has a busy schedule. he has to work out, get clipped, bathed, get its hooves pedicured. he has tv appearances, stadium there's pregame brunches. all of that happens just before he leads the team out onto the field on sunday. thunder is not the only animal rooting for the broncos. jimmy fallon brought back those >> ready. let's release the puppies. >> wow. landslide right there.

winner, the denver broncos. >> of course it is. >> we're loving that. >> obviously highly intelligent. isn't that cool. >> we love that. >> now, i do have to tell you guys, one thing thunder has, you guys that, the puppies don't, thunder has a super bowl ring. >> i know. >> really? >> thunder -- the owner wears it, but it's technically thunder's ring. >> we couldn't help but notice thunder is staying in a nicer place than you are. we didn't want to bring that up. >> it's true. that's a sore subject, gary. why would you bring that up. thanks. we'll talk to you later. >> i feel like all the puppies bowl. >> obvious they did. >> i love it. >> they're so smart. that's cool. in most areas around the state, you're going to see plenty of peyton manning
