And this morning's parade wasn't the only part of the festivities.
Tens of thousands of people packed the Henry Meyer Festival Park grounds
for a championship rally along the lake to celebrate the Brew Crew.
Our Deronté Matthews is here in studio
to take us through a look at the experience.
Hey there, Deronté.
Hey there, Bill. Now, it's 100% an experience
that no one there will forget. People called off work or skipped work,
schools were closed, or maybe you decided to play hooky.
Anyway, fans of all ages stood shoulder to shoulder showing their love
and support for the team.
And the championship rally kicked off around 1230 this afternoon.
Fans crowded at American Family Insurance
Amphitheater at Summerfest Grounds.
Now, between the live music and entertainment, the Brew Crew got
a chance to address fans who waited so long for this moment.
The team hopped on stage and many clearly still partying
with beer cans in their hands while also showing off that trophy.
Now, this is where they got the chance to address their fans in person,
telling them just how much the support means.
I just want to say thank you.
Thank you to the city of Milwaukee, all these fans.
You guys have been amazing this whole year
and all the support you've given us. And just, I love you guys.
For me and my teammates,
this has been the most special day of our lives.
You guys showing up here and cheering us on.
This is better than anything we could ever imagine.
And the rally was also somewhat of a merging of generations.
Not only did we hear from current players and managers,
but also from some of the Brewers who were in the 1982 World Series.
The crew falling short in game seven with the Cardinals,
the city still held a parade for the team.
I know it's been 44 years.
I know back in 82 we had a chance.
But these guys, you guys are amazing.
I spent 17 years in the bullpen,
and this is one bad bullpen.
Ha, ha, ha.
And it was awesome. Now, of course,
to close out the celebration, there was a special moment
referencing Bob Uecker.
Robin Yount rolled out on the stage on Uecker's motorcycle. It
recreates an iconic moment from the 1982 World Series
when you rolled that Harley
inside the County Stadium.
Yount says this was in better working condition,
thank goodness, than the first time he rode it years ago.
I've ridden this bike.
About 25 years ago, and it didn't have any brakes.
So I wasn't sure I wasn't going
to end up on the other end of the stage.
But thank God it stopped. It's here.
And God bless you, Bob Uecker.
What a way to end it. The celebration also wrapped up with a photo
that they called the biggest selfie in Wisconsin, including
the team on stage as well as the tens of thousands in the crowd.
Bill. All right. Thanks a lot, Deronté.
So many memorable moments from all of that. And you can see
