Knicks Championship Parade Live Thread

The parade is happening now, and I thought it’d be nice to have a thread to discuss it!

Hubert let us know the sad news that Gkhenman passed away in April. Our condolences to his family and friends. He was a great commenter.

Maybe this is an old guy perspective but all I can think about is all those people who’ve been standing there since 4 am and where they’re gonna pee!

LOL, another reason I wouldn’t have been able to go.

I did 2009, since it was right by my wife’s office at the time. But yeah, I never did any of the other 1990s parades. It’s more fun to just watch it on TV (like the ball dropping on New Year’s Eve. I did that once, and once is enough).

Watching on NBC, love the F-bomb from one of the dudes in the crowd when he was talking about how much he loved the Knicks. That’s a true Knick fan.

I wanted to go in 2008 after the Giants Superbowl. I was still living in NJ but nobody else wanted to go.

I legit didn’t know Richie Guerin was still alive.

EDITED TO ADD: He’s 94. Wow.

Did the very crowded Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade (77 and CPW) for like six years straight when my son was young. I’ve aged out.

D-mar- 32 ounce bottles were invented for a reason

I love the Knicks but I prefer digital real estate. Would not venture close. Looks absolutely nuts.

I did Yankees ‘96. That was the first championship any of my teams won. I was at Fordham University at the time and attended a ridiculous amount of games. They sold same day tickets every day for the RF bleachers for $6 until the World Series. Then you had to line up before the series and buy them for $10. What a different world! Unfortunately you were limited to one game, and I chose the one we lost 14-1 instead of game 6 🤦🏻‍♂️

Shout out to Swifty, man. You always said you didn’t want to win the title with LeBron or Durant bc it would be all about them. I’m so fucking glad we’re celebrating Jalen Brunson and not one of those guys

Wouldn’t have minded Durant but I definitely didn’t want the root for the Kyrie circus.

Now that I’m thinking about it, it’s been 15 years since any NY team won a title, right?

I bet that was a record drought for the city.

EDIT: I should say any men’s team so Noble doesn’t @ me

Guy on SNY speaking facts . You have to keep this team together . Hi Dolan..

Begley thinks Dolan was talking about a few years in. He doesn’t think Dolan was talking about next year.

Got there around 6:30am, by that point all the entries were closed LOL. Went back home to watch on TV. The speeches are the best part anyway!

That was something! The crowd bum rushed the barricade, so we were able to get within a half a block. Mostly I saw arms and cell phones, still! Great to be there!
