LA Rams joyous victory parade sees Super Bowl stars smoke cigars and hit the booze as Tom Brady warns ‘mix in the water’
THOUSANDS took to the streets of Los Angeles to celebrate LA Rams historic win at Super Bowl LVI.
Shaun McVay led his team to a dramatic 23-20 win over Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday at SoFi Stadium.
His triumphant side took over Hollywood on a sun-filled Wednesday afternoon, cruising through the streets on four open-top buses while fans packed the pavements.
And there could be some sore heads in Inglewood this morning, as stars toasted their success with a few well-deserved drinks.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford puffed away on a huge cigar, while defensive tackle Aaron Donald opted to go shirtless as the Super Bowl champions partied in style.
Starting at the Shrine Exhibition Hall, the route lasted for around a mile and ended up at the Rams former home LA Memorial Coliseum.
But there was one word of warning from NFL legend Tom Brady, who was pictured at his own celebration with the Bucs twelve months ago looking a little worse for wear.
He quoted a video of Stafford laughing and puffing away on his victory cigar, saying: "Mix in a water Matt…trust me."
