Brewers celebrate title run in Wisconsin with Lambeau Leap before Parade of Champions

By Vancouver Television Sports Desk

A Milwaukee celebration that will culminate in the Brewers’ Parade of Champions is already underway across Wisconsin. Led by veteran pitcher Brandon Woodruff, a group of Brewers players attended Thursday night’s Green Bay Packers–Carolina Panthers game at Lambeau Field, appearing in front of the home crowd as part of the broader festivities that follow Milwaukee’s World Series win this week.

The Brewers’ title run was recently completed with a 4-1 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 5 on Wednesday, which gave Milwaukee its first World Series championship in franchise history. Woodruff entered the scene in front of the crowd while hoisting the Commissioner’s Trophy, placing the league’s championship hardware at the center of the mid-week Wisconsin welcome.

As the Brewers contingent moved into the game-day spotlight, the team brought World Series momentum into Titletown on the eve of its official parade schedule. In Milwaukee, the Parade of Champions is slated to officially begin at 10 a.m. CT on Friday, marking the next formal step in the team’s post-title celebration.

Among the Brewers players taking part in the Packers’ home-game tradition was outfielder Sal Frelick, who hit the game-tying home run in Milwaukee’s Game 2 victory earlier in the World Series. During Thursday night’s matchup, Frelick performed a Lambeau Leap, jumping into the first row of the stands beyond the end zone as fans cheered.

Frelick’s leap came as part of a night that also featured Packers players performing their own leaps during the first half. According to the league’s account of the game-night festivities, Green Bay opened up a double-digit lead over the Panthers late in the first half, setting the stage for the celebratory atmosphere in and around Lambeau Field.

The Brewers’ presence in Green Bay served as a preview of what comes next for their championship celebration back in Milwaukee. With the Commissioner’s Trophy already on display in Wisconsin and the Parade of Champions scheduled to begin Friday morning at 10 a.m. CT, the Thursday night appearance at Lambeau offered an early, high-profile marker for the team’s first-ever World Series championship celebration.

For fans, the immediate takeaway is timing: the Brewers’ World Series parade festivities officially start Friday at 10 a.m. CT in Milwaukee, following the franchise’s Wednesday Game 5 clincher over the Rays. Thursday’s Packers-Panthers game created an additional venue for the team’s title group to be seen, highlighted by Woodruff’s Trophy appearance and Frelick’s Lambeau Leap.
