Look: Crowd At Dodgers World Series Celebration Is Insane

The Los Angeles Dodgers are celebrating their World Series title this Friday afternoon with a parade of epic proportions.
The Dodgers captured the Commissioner's Trophy this Wednesday by defeating the New York Yankees in Game 5 of the World Series. They were trailing 5-0 before mounting a wild comeback in the top of the fifth inning. Once they took the lead in the top of the eighth inning, they leaned on Blake Treinen and Walker Buehler to get the job done. Well, they did exactly that.
Although the Dodgers aren't even 48 hours removed from their Game 5 victory, their players have enough energy to party with the fans in Los Angeles.
An overhead shot from FOX showed just how impressive this Friday's parade has been. Per reports, over 100,000 fans are apparently in attendance to show their support for the Dodgers.
Things have been so hectic in Los Angeles that even the Dodgers got stuck in traffic prior to the start of the parade.

Once the players made their way over to Dodger Stadium, outfielder Kiké Hernandez started firing off some comments about the team's championship run.
"Who has more championships in the 2020s than us? Absolutely nobody," Hernandez said.
A few moments later, Hernandez took a shot at New York rapper Fat Joe. He said, "He used to be fat, but he's not fat anymore."
Dodgers fans at the stadium were also treated to a performance from Ice Cube. The actor and rapper is considered a good luck charm since he performed before Game 2 of the World Series.
The Dodgers will probably party through the night. Heck, it could linger into the weekend.
Hopefully, the fans in Los Angeles enjoy this celebration without crossing the line or doing something they'll regret.
