On Sunday, the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Golden State Warriors and were named the NBA champions . It was especially meaningful, given that it was the first championship for a professional sports team in Cleveland since 1964.
The importance of this was not lost on the city of Cleveland. Once account estimates that 1.5 million people were out celebrating today. This is crazy for a city with a population of 396,815. And yes, one of them was LeBron James.
Here's a look at the amazing victory parade:
