Fans across the globe united with Angelenos in celebration, marking the first time in a quarter-century that a franchise has achieved consecutive championships. Celebration Parade Attracts Massive Turnout Los Angeles area celebrations featured a procession through the city center on Monday morning, a ticketed rally at Dodger Stadium, and spontaneous parties across the city. Social media videos show thousands of Angelenos packing downtown streets, many carrying homemade signs and Dodger flags. The squad was seen riding high on a double-decker bus through the crowds, raising the Commissioner’s trophy proudly. “I’m already thinking about the next championship we’re going to do this,” Shohei Ohtani stated through an interpreter. The procession path concluded at the stadium, where the team emerged to Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” with the renowned DJ providing music and the artist driving a Pacific blue classic car around the stadium’s outfield. Early Celebrations and Player Reactions Celebrations started well before the procession, with Dodgers fans setting off fireworks in the streets of Downtown Los Angeles on the previous evening. The World Series MVP, named the World Series’ Most Valuable Player, spoke plainly about the win. “We refuse to lose,” Yamamoto said. “I love the Dodgers. This city means everything to me.” Varied Responses and Community Spirit In contrast, Mark Walter was met with a less warm reception at the rally. Video footage from the gathering appear to show him walking onstage to a combination of applause and boos, with negative shouts interrupting his speech. The World Series acted as a bright spot in what has been a trying year for the city. An estimated quarter-million people attended to the Dodgers’ victory parade last year, and according to team member one athlete, fans this year demonstrated equal or greater support. “I feel like it’s almost double from last year,” he remarked. “The supporters are incredible. It’s so awesome to be a part of this.”
