Today was the championship parade. The crowd was estimated @ 1.5 million. My friends who live downrown called me at 9:30 and said not to come as the street was already full with thousands and the parade wouldn't start for 3 hours!
Public transit was overwhelmed and finally stopped running. Many fans from the suburbs could not get into town. The wait for trains in NJ was 2 hours!
They opened two stadiums to hold the crowds for the speechifying at the end of the parade.
I wasn't too disappointed because I'd been to the '80 parade and also to the Eagles, 6ers and Flyers parades.
