1155 Victory celebration
It was a sleepless night.
After 18 years, the San Francisco 49ers finally stood on top of the world again, from missing the playoffs for eight consecutive years to reaching the playoffs for two consecutive years, and then going one step further to win the 40th Super Bowl championship, they overcame a long and protracted slump, they overcame the shackles of multiple spells, they reversed a 29-point disadvantage, they! Won the Super Bowl!
This is the sixth Super Bowl trophy in the team's history!
The whole city of San Francisco is reveling, and the residents can't even wait for the championship parade to unleash their enthusiasm and excitement early and can't wait to get into the party, and the surging craze has taken over every corner of the city and even spread to the entire Bay Area.
"King of the Bay Area"? This seems to be the best description of the 49ers in San Francisco!
But all this is just the beginning, and the real carnival is still waiting for the follow-up. It's just that after that, Lu Ke's memory became blurred, and everything was like a flood, swarming in one go, overwhelmed and exhausted, and things began to flicker.
To be honest, celebrating a victory is far more difficult than winning a championship – at least, for Lu Ke. He still misses his training ground and arena even more, which is the environment he is most familiar with and most intimate.
At the press conference for winning the championship, as a history-making news figure, Lu Ke became the absolute focus.
About Charles Davis's "kiss the ass" bet, about Ray Lewis's retirement, about controversial decisions during the game, about last-minute long passing options, about Mercedes-Benz endorsements, about the launch of new custom sneakers, about Candace's romance going public, about signing a new contract, about plans for next season, about breaking all the curses......
And so on and so forth.
The questions are simply endless, one after the other, and there is no time to even drink saliva.
The most surprising question is undoubtedly about Jerry Jones. As the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones' presence in any corner of the league is bound to attract attention; And this time, he appeared on the Super Bowl stage, and after the game, he was accompanied by Jade York and had a brief conversation with Lu Ke.
When Lu Ke joined the San Francisco 49ers and signed a two-year contract, this contract is about to expire in August this year, which also means that the time for a contract renewal or transfer is coming, what kind of conditions are the San Francisco 49ers willing to offer to keep this quarterback who has made countless history, and what other teams are competing for this quarterback will undoubtedly be the most eye-catching focus of the entire league in the next three months, and there are not too many problems even if the suffix does not need to add "one".
Now, the advent of Jerry Jones has made people have to think about it.
Lu Ke avoided all the questions, and he was still at ease at the press conference, but the entire interview process lasted for nearly an hour, but it consumed all of Lu Ke's energy.
After the interview, Lu Ke was also dizzy, and he didn't even remember what question the reporter asked just now, but he felt that the long guns and short cannons made his vision begin to be in a trance.
The players returned to the locker room en masse, and Lu Ke first became the darling of the Gatorade bath, and then triggered a champagne bath battle, and the feeling of being wet and slimy was simply not too embarrassing.
Later, Hollywood actors such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Emma Stone, Andrew Garfield, and Jack Nicholson, as well as professional players such as Stephen Curry and JJ Watt, came to the locker room to visit the class, only to see a messy mess, and the terrifying picture had reached the level of psychological shadow.
But the revelry is not over.
That night, the owner of the San Francisco 49ers, Jade York, directly chartered the entire team back to San Francisco, and the players celebrated another round on the plane, and the last remaining memory is that the corpses were scattered all over the field, and if a paparazzi took a picture at this time, it would definitely be able to sell it for a good price on the TMZ website.
After arriving in San Francisco, the players scattered and began to party all night.
Lu Ke went to Joe Stanley's house, luxury cars and pools, beauties and alcohol, celebrities and flesh and bones, the whole party can be described as everything, leaving all the hardships and tiredness of the long season behind, no need to worry about the next game, no need to worry about the next training, they can celebrate wantonly and insolently.
The 2012 season officially came to an end tonight.
Three days later, San Francisco held an official victory parade!
Don't underestimate this championship parade, the budget alone has exceeded four million dollars - jointly borne by the city hall and the team, for this championship parade after 18 years, not only San Francisco, but the entire Bay Area is boiling, and the city hall and the team have teamed up to carry out careful planning and execution.
First of all, the city and the team have planned a route to cover the entire city and be controlled within the appropriate length without affecting the normal operation of the city, and even Auckland has submitted an application to join the parade.
Seek the psychological shadow area of the Oakland raiders.
Secondly, after the route of the championship parade was determined, the whole city began to mobilize, according to later statistics, San Francisco mobilized a total of more than 800 police officers, 150 firefighters, and 200 municipal engineering personnel, which is the largest scale of any major sports league in recent years.
In addition to this, there are also basic logistics services, mobile toilets, different victory celebration phalanxes, drinking water and simple food, etc., in addition to ambulances, fire trucks and a series of related measures.
In the end, the San Francisco 49ers were fully prepared for their own efforts, sending in six double-decker buses, 30 private cars, 20 celebration floats, and 60 motorcycles.
According to the league's official statistics, the number of people who arrived in San Francisco to participate in the championship parade that day was estimated to be 1.5 million, but in fact it should be 1.8 million to 2 million, which also created the largest number of players in the four major sports leagues in North America, breaking the historical record!
Prior to this, the record for a championship parade was held by the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers, a densely populated Los Angeles that mobilized 1.3 million people to participate in the parade. And now, the San Francisco 49 has been greatly improved, and in the final analysis, it is reflected in the Asian American community.
In previous years, the enthusiasm of the Asian American community to participate in the championship parade was limited, and even if they occasionally joined in the excitement, they could not become the main team of the parade. But this year, in San Francisco's crowd of onlookers, the Asian community has become a force to be reckoned with, and it is everywhere that it participates.
Lu Ke topped the Super Bowl as the main starter, and the impact of this feat far exceeded expectations, even Roger Goodale has raised expectations, and FL's market share is increasing by leaps and bounds.
The championship parade has become more and more closely linked between the team and the city, the fans and the team, and the city and the game, and the phrase "fight endlessly" has become a new urban label of San Francisco, which is attracting more and more attention.
It doesn't matter if it's 1.5 million people, or 2 million people.
When you are truly in it, there is only one feeling in your mind: a sea of people! A real crowd of people! Completely surrounded by a sea of people, the whole city was surrounded by a sea of red - all nine of them wore red home jerseys, spreading the sea of red at Candlestick Stadium to the entire Bay Area, and it seemed that even the sea was dyed red.
The most amazing thing is that more than two-thirds of the fans wore gold objects!
As the parade buses pass by, the gold begins to pour out in large swaths, lighting up the vast sea of red, and the spectacle is truly spectacular, even the home game day of the Candlestick Stadium is eclipsed.
The celebration lasted almost a full day, and the parade was followed by a celebration of players and fans interacting with each other, stretching from day to night, pushing the Super Bowl winning frenzy to the extreme.
In the midst of the cheers, shouts, and surging enthusiasm, all of Lu Ke's relevant memories began to blur, and he could only vaguely remember the endless, endless sea of red, as well as the deafening and thrilling slogans of support, and everything else was only a few vague fragments of plausibility.
It wasn't until the day after the victory parade that I woke up from my sleep again, and the top-heavy excitement and excitement gradually calmed down, and the reality of the "Super Bowl winner" slowly became heavy, as if nothing had changed, and as if nothing had changed.
Turning his head to look at the sleeping Candace beside him, Lu Ke couldn't help but smile dumbly.
In the past few days, it should be the most relaxed time in Lu Ke's career, and it is also the laziest period after he got the rugby superstar system, not to mention training, he has not even opened the system, and the Super Bowl championship reward has not been claimed so far.
After a short period of time, Lu Ke can already feel that the muscles of his body are protesting, he is now gradually getting used to the self-disciplined training schedule, and suddenly he is not comfortable when he relaxes, he needs to return to basic training and recovery training, winning the championship is a thing of the past, and the offseason is about to begin, isn't it?
Leaving the bed lightly, careful not to disturb the sleeping Candace, Lu Ke came to the hall, basking in the early morning sun, and turned on the system for the first time since winning the Super Bowl.
