Thousands celebrate Rangers' victory during World Series championship parade

Huge crowds of supporters recently gathered to mark the momentous victory of the Texans. Cheers of "M-V-P!, M-V-P!" erupted when Corey Seager entered the stage as the Texas Rangers celebrated their first World Series championship.

MVP of the AL Championship Series Adolis García, along with Seager and every player in the Rangers squad, led the march through Arlington's entertainment zone, which is located along Interstate 30 midway between downtown Dallas and downtown Fort Worth.

"Thank you, Boch," Texas Rangers.

The march began on the south side of Globe Life Park and proceeded around Mark Holtz Lake, named after the late commentator of the Rangers who was well-known for his "Hello Win Column! call, and went around the side of AT&T Stadium, the home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys.

The Rangers' previous stadium, where they played during their earlier World Series runs in 2010 and 2011, was next on the parade route.
