Charlie Brown Denver Broncos Christmas 2026 Bobblehead

Orange Crush, Christmas Edition

The Broncos have worn orange since the days of the “Orange Crush” defense of 1977, the season that took Denver to its first Super Bowl. Since then the color has meant Sundays at Mile High, snow on the field and a crowd that shakes the stands. This Charlie Brown wears it head to toe: orange jersey, orange Santa hat and a navy flag held high.

The Number on His Back

Number 18 is Peyton Manning’s number in Denver. Manning joined the Broncos in 2012, threw a record 55 touchdown passes in 2013 and finished his career with a win in Super Bowl 50 in February 2016. The number had been retired for Frank Tripucka, the quarterback of the team’s first seasons. Tripucka gave his blessing for Manning to wear it, and today it honors both men.

Snoopy Would Approve

In A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965), Snoopy enters a neighborhood lights contest and covers his doghouse in so many bulbs that he wins first prize. Denver goes big on lights too. The Mile High City’s holiday displays and its sold-out December games share that spirit: more color, more noise, more fun.

The colored bulbs around this figure’s base are a small nod to Snoopy’s prize-winning doghouse.

Football a Mile High

The Broncos were a charter member of the American Football League in 1960. Their stadium sits 5,280 feet above sea level, and visiting teams still talk about how the thin air wears them down in the fourth quarter. In 2024, rookie quarterback Bo Nix led Denver back to the playoffs for the first time since the Super Bowl 50 season. For Broncos Country, that return felt like the start of something new, and a Christmas figure is a fun way to mark it.
