The Huskies rode on a double-decker bus waving at fans who celebrated their 53-41 win over Butler on April 4. They were escorted by bands, jugglers, politicians and even dogs from a local Siberian Husky club.
The parade wound its way from the Capitol and around Bushnell Park, before heading down Capitol Avenue for a rally on the north steps of the statehouse.
