"A large group from patrol, as well as a large group from Special Operations. Everyone will be working this weekend to make sure we have a safe turnout," he said.

Thousands are expected to crowd the city for the Mummers and the Eagles game, sometimes a side of drinking.

"We are going to make sure we have DUI enforcement teams out there this weekend as well, making sure people aren't drinking and driving."

Stanford said, when it comes to that many people, everyone should be vigilant.

"We always ask the public's help with these things. Make sure they enjoy themselves responsibly, but also if they see something to give us a call."

The parade begins at 9:00 a.m. and Eagles kickoff is at 1 p.m.
