Believeland’s biggest party ever
The best reactions from the parade celebrating Cleveland’s first title in 52 years
Fresh off of helping the Cleveland Cavaliers win their first NBA championship in franchise history, LeBron James promised the victory parade would be “the biggest party that Cleveland has ever seen. Ever.”
His prediction didn’t disappoint. After patiently waiting 52 years since their city’s last major sports championship, Cleveland fans were busting moves in the streets to celebrate their beloved Cavs.

And the party won’t be stopping anytime soon.
This parade might take 52 hours to complete…..which is totally fine because it was 52 years in the making
