I’m actually genuinely happy for Ovechkin after watching the pure joy in him hoisting the Cup. That was one happy guy. Any Eagles fan can tell you, it’s sweeter when it’s that rare.

Most importantly, a DC parade means either a day off or unscheduled telework for this guy! :D

DAMMIT! :pissed:

Just got our email warning of street and parking closures and general mayhem for the Capitals parade and rally tomorrow.

Three magic words omitted: “Unscheduled telework authorized”

I was prepared to drain the swamp tomorrow.

I spoke too soon. I can either telework tomorrow or take two hours of admin leave to attend the parade.

I’m going to try to work out a two hour early departure in conjunction with lunch and just gtfo of DC early. I didn’t bring home the papers I’d need to telework, so I screwed the pooch on that. The agency notice didn’t come down until I was already gone today. Bastards.

Trump’s team released that one. :D

The low angle shots over the Mall always look great. The overheads always look way worse. I watched the whole thing on the NBC Washington feed and the overhead at the peak showed that they almost filled the Mall from 7th to 9th.

I haven’t seen the official numbers, but maybe 100k including the whole parade?

How many would show up if the Flyers finally won?

I think the estimates for the Blackhawks were more the 1M.

The Flyers’ Stanley Cup parades in 74 and 75 were estimated at 2 million each (entertaining article, btw): https://mobile.nytimes.com/1975/05/29/a ... lyers.html
