Over one million fans have filled the streets from TD Garden to Copley Square as the players ride Duck Boats through the city. The parade began with a small rally reportedly attended by only about 1,000 people, but it has grown considerably along the route.
The great weather, the fact that this parade is being held on a Saturday, and general excitement for the team’s first Cup in 39 years are all possible reasons for the huge crowd.
Fans who can’t attend can watch live video of the rally.
