The 2026 Milwaukee Brewers are more than a World Series championship team.
They’re a beloved and an adored team.
And they’re a team that is going down in history in Milwaukee.
Two days after winning the World Series in St. Petersburg, Florida, over the Tampa Bay Rays, the team received a rockstar-like treatment during a championship parade in Milwaukee.

Over 750,000 fans lined up for hours to get a glimpse of the champs and to be part of a parade that everyone in this city has waited their entire lives to be a part of.
And just as they produced many memorable moments during the postseason run, the team continued to produce unforgettable memories during the parade.
Here are some of the top moments from the parade:
The Brewers didn’t stay atop their double-decker buses for long. They wanted to celebrate with the fans. To be part of it with them.
And centerfielder Garrett Mitchell showed fans the love as he gave out high fives along the route.

But a baby caught his attention.
Mitchell then took the baby over the barricade and held up the little one for a photo.
Adorable.
Jacob Misiorowski is known for the throwing the heat on the mound.
As the parade showed, the ace pitcher can also throw down some cold ones.
And he can catch them, too. One handed.
While atop a bus, the likely National League Cy Young Award winner caught a beer from a fan on the ground. The Miz then started pounding it right away.
The fan who threw it went nuts!
Speaking of the Miz, the kidlike joy was on display throughout the parade.
Misiorowski lifting up Aaron Ashby is so pure.

The team has said they’re best friends and it was on displayed often on this day from everyone.
Young male fans throughout the MLB season became known for taking off their shirts in an upper-level section inside stadiums – including at American Family Field – to take off and wave their shirts.
The Brewers players participated in the trend during the parade.
It might have been a chilly fall day in Milwaukee, but that didn’t stop Joey Ortiz, Brice Turang, Sal Frelick and Jake Bauers from going “Tarps Off” atop a bus toward the end of the parade route.
Their crazed fans couldn’t get enough of it.
Players had several Champagne showers – four to be exact – along their World Series title run.

Now, they gave fans waiting along the streets in downtown Milwaukee a feel.
Jackson Chourio and others were spotted spraying fans as they walked the parade route.
And the Fox 6 broadcast, the exclusive station for the parade, showed some fans actually getting Champagne bottles from buses.
That’s a memory and a bottle to cherish.
Aaron Ashby was one of the top stories during the Brewers’ World Series championship for his historic pitching performance, setting a record for most scoreless innings by a reliever.
And a fun off-the-field story involving Ashby was his lookalike.

Tim Crispy of Brookfield became a viral sensation as he dressed up as Ashby during the World Series, including at the clinching Game 5 at Tropicana Field.
At the parade, the two made eye contact for a hilarious moment.
The parade was all about celebration.
It was also about remembering.
During the parade, as buses and vehicles made their way past the Bob Uecker mural at 731 N. Jackson St., they stopped for a minute or so to pay their respects.
Brewers manager Pat Murphy pointed at the mural in a touching tribute.
