LOS ANGELES (AP) -Thousands of Los Angeles Lakers fans waving flags and wearing jerseys are pouring into the Coliseum for the rally celebrating the team’s 15th NBA title.
Some fans waited through the night and by dawn Wednesday so many were spilling into the streets that the Coliseum’s outer gates were opened to accommodate them some six hours before the rally was scheduled to begin. Traffic was backed up on streets around the stadium, and there was a significant presence of police cars.
Fans at the front of lines told KNBC-TV they had been waiting since Tuesday night.
The parade begins at Staples Center shortly after 11 a.m. and ends at the Coliseum.
