It's customary for the MVP to go to Disney World -- but this time, teammate Ben Roethlisberger was also invited after the Pittsburgh Steelers' 27-23 victory.

Both players filmed their "I'm going to Disney World" commercial on the field immediately following the game. Holmes then headed to Disney, about 80 miles east of Raymond James Stadium.

Roethlisberger flew to New York for a Monday night appearance on "The Late Show with David Letterman," but he hopes to schedule his Disney trip soon.

Holmes was voted the game's MVP with nine catches for 131 yards, including a tiptoe reception at the edge of the end zone with 35 seconds remaining to give the Steelers the win.

Roethlisberger drove the team downfield for the go-ahead score, moving the Steelers 78 yards in eight plays and finishing it off with the pass to Holmes.

"I told the guys, 'It's now or never, guys. You'll live forever if we do this and all the film study, all the hard work, all the stuff that everyone talked bad about us about is all going to be for nothing,"' Roethlisberger said. "We got off to a little bit of a rocky start there, but we pulled through it and we found a way."
