The streets of downtown St. John’s were jammed with fans of all ages as the Newfoundland Growlers paraded the Kelly Cup through the capital city.

From the Mile One, to Prescott Street and back to George Street, fans lined the streets to cheer on the province’s first professional sports champions.

It was another kitchen party on George Street for the fan rally following the parade and Tuesday’s big win that included speeches from players, management and team staff—and even a singing of the Ode to Newfoundland by Chris Andrews that electrified the crowd.

It was the first championship parade the city has seen, and Mayor Danny Breen says it was incredible.
He says the people of Newfoundland and Labrador are sports people, and like those that work hard and produce, and that’s exactly what the Growlers did.
