‘Toy Story’ meets the NFL: Sunday’s Falcons-Jaguars game to feature alternate presentation for kids

Associated Press  

Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the “Toy Story” universe will be taking in an NFL game for the first time. ESPN’s creative services has done more than 100 animations of characters from “Toy Story” that can be woven into the broadcast. Pixar Animation Studios, which produces the “Toy Story” franchise, worked with ESPN to make sure things don’t stray too far from established storylines. The game will kick off at 9:30 a.m. EDT Sunday, but the replay of “Toy Story Funday Football” will be available on Disney+ for 30 days.
