The Chicago Cubs had their World Series championship parade on Friday afternoon and it was quite expansive. The route stretched six miles and was crowded on both sides throughout by legions of fans. In fact, millions. City officials estimated that there were five million people.
The crowds weren't as gigantic in one single spot, they were just spread all over the long route. Here are some of the sights and scenes.
