Packed streets lead sights and sounds from Brewers' parade through Milwaukee

Milwaukee Brewers fans waited a long time for Wednesday night's World Series win, so it went without saying that the ensuing parade would be a party to remember. The newly minted champions celebrated their triumphant return to Wisconsin with a raucous parade Friday, one befitting of a franchise's first championship. Gov. Tony Evers declared Friday as "Won Our Way" Day -- and jokingly told citizens they could feel free to use his proclamation as an excuse to get away from work. "Look, I'm not saying I can give you the day off tomorrow," Evers' account posted on X. "I don't think it's in my executive powers as governor to do that, but I am saying you can show this to your boss and see what happens. It's worth a shot." Day off from work or not -- doing their part, Milwaukee Public Schools closed Friday -- thousands of Wisconsinites lined the streets of Milwaukee to revel in the Brewers' title. Here are all the top scenes from a memorable celebration on the streets of Cream City. 'MVP' chants for William Contreras MVP! MVP!
