The Phillies Parade
8:03 Getting off the subway and people are ALREADY lined up against the barricades and cheering the buses going by. They are 4 hours early.
8:53 getting louder and louder out there. Cars laying on the horn, crowds cheering
9:30 Minimum 2 Deep against the barricades with Thousands milling about behind them. My wife and kids cant get a train...they're all full!!!
10:14 Wife and kids finally crammed onto train. She held up the phone as the passengers roared 'LETS GO PHILLIES'
10:33 this is getting ridiculous.....
10:41 Someone has a monstrous music system playing queens ‘we are the champions’ and THOUSASNDS of people are singing along right now.
10:47 A column of 50+ Police Vehicles with full sirens is passing
11:04 Police have closed Market Steet to Traffic
11:25 I am headed down into the fray soon
1:13 that was completely insane. cell phones arent working in the city so i couldnt twitter it, hundreds of thousands packed the streets for the parade. Tickertape pouring down from the skyscrapers. A see of drunk Phillies Fans in red.
