#parade

Two of the week's biggest r/baseball threads come from the Brewers' World Series parade on Friday, October 30. One video shows the route crowded from street level to high-rise windows, with people in kayaks on the river. The other shows a fan throwing a can of beer to pitcher Jacob Misiorowski on the team's parade vehicle, and Misiorowski catching it and drinking it. FOX6 Milwaukee reports that the Milwaukee Police Department estimated more than 750,000 people attended the parade or the rally at Henry Maier Festival Park, nearly 1.5 times the city's population, and said it may be the largest single-day event crowd in Wisconsin history.

Together the threads drew about 25,600 upvotes in a 2.8-million-member community. Fans who say they waited decades for a title trade congratulations; one notes the parade stopped in front of the Bob Uecker mural. Under the beer clip, many joke that Misiorowski has better hands than the Packers' receivers, while several of the top replies warn that throwing full cans at a bus full of people, including children, could badly hurt someone.
