This group all about team" He might have even smiled. From E. NHLBlackhawks abc7chicago pic. Blackhawks ABC7Chicago pic. Confetti storm! Just incredible. And we have Blackhawks fans right outside our abc7chicago studio right now Thanks for stopping by! Welcome to West Loop! Players took videos of each other, waved to family members and joked with each other on stage. When the ceremony closed, Queen's "We Are the Champions" blared through the speakers, while family and friends threw their arms around one another and swayed from left to right.

Bruce Rauner, in a black team jersey, were there. After the festivities on stage ended, the players boarded buses in the bowels of the stadium. The motorcade left the stadium to the cheer of fans outside, waving and taking video with their phones as the bus drivers honked.

Fans, slapping high-fives with each other and firefighters, formed a river of red through the Museum Campus. Skip to content. Pretty good. City officials on Wednesday afternoon announced plans to extend the parade route for the Stanley Cup-winning Chicago Blackhawks in response to the large number of people who complained about not being able to attend the rally at Soldier Field. The parade will begin at 10 a. From Monroe, the parade will travel east to South Michigan Avenue. Tickets are needed for the event at Soldier Field.

Those were my first thoughts as I walked up the steps from Millennium Station to the corner of Randolph Street and Michigan Avenue on the morning of June 11, That thought was all I could muster for a few minutes, stunned by the enormity of the crowd in The Loop. The crowd was lined up for blocks, 15 or 20 people deep in most spots. There was barely anywhere to walk. Then another thought jumped to the front of my mind: everyone was wearing Blackhawks gear. It was a parade for the Blackhawks Stanley Cup victory!

But in order to fully grasp how crazy it was to see that many hockey fans gathered in one space, you must understand how irrelevant and anonymous the Blackhawks were five years prior.
