          The Los Angeles Dodgers have been waiting for a championship parade.

          After being unable to have one after his team won the World Series in 2020, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts hasn't been shy about his desire for a proper celebration with fans. He explicitly said, "We want that parade," after Los Angeles went up 3-0 against the New York Yankees. That topic came up once again when the Dodgers clinched the franchise's eighth championship after their 7-6 victory in Game 5.

          "I talked about getting a parade," Roberts said. "We're going to get our parade this year."

          They finally got it Friday.

          The festivities began at City Hall before finishing on Figueroa Street in downtown Los Angeles. The Dodgers continued the party with a special ticketed celebration at Dodger Stadium.

          The people of Los Angeles came in droves to support their team. Here are the best moments from the Dodgers' 2024 World Series championship parade.
