The City of Angels witnessed widespread festivities after the Dodgers clinched a nail-biting seven-match World Series title. Fans across the globe united with Angelenos in celebration, marking the first time in a quarter-century that a team has achieved consecutive championships.
Los Angeles area events featured a downtown parade on the morning of the parade, a ticketed rally at Dodger Stadium, and impromptu gatherings across the city.
Social media videos depict countless of Los Angeles residents packing city center avenues, many displaying homemade signs and Dodger flags. The team was seen traveling proudly on a open-top bus through the crowds, hoisting the championship trophy proudly.
“I’m already thinking about the third time we’re going to achieve this,” the star player remarked through an interpreter.
The procession path concluded at Dodger Stadium, where the players emerged to the rapper’s “Not Like Us,” with the renowned DJ providing music and Ice Cube cruising a Pacific blue vintage Cadillac around the field.
Celebrations started prior to the parade, with Dodgers fans setting off flares in the roads of the city center on Sunday night.
The World Series MVP, named the MVP of the championship, spoke directly about the victory.
“Losing is not an option,” he stated. “I adore this team. This city means everything to me.”
However, the team owner was met with a cooler welcome at the rally. Video footage from the event seem to depict Walter taking the stage to a mix of applause and jeers, with jeers interrupting his address.
The championship served as a bright spot in what has been a trying year for Los Angeles. An estimated 225,000 people showed up to the championship parade last year, and according to team member Freddie Freeman, supporters this year demonstrated equal or greater enthusiasm.
“It seems it’s nearly twice from last year,” Freeman said. “These fans are crazy. It’s truly amazing to be a involved in this.”
