A Sea of Orange
When the Astros clinched the World Series, Houston didn’t just celebrate; it exploded. And by “exploded,” I mean a million or so people decided to cram themselves into a few square miles of downtown. It was like a human ant colony, but with way better fashion choices.
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.
Now, you might be wondering, "how on Earth did they count all those people?" Well, they didn’t. They estimated. And when you’re dealing with numbers that big, even a small percentage off is still a massive number. So, while the official estimate was around 1 million, it wouldn't surprise me if the real number was closer to 1.5 million. Or maybe 2. Who knows? Maybe there were secretly a few thousand aliens mixed in there for the cosmic spectacle.
Reminder: Reading twice often makes things clearer.

More People Than You Can Shake a Bat At
To put things into perspective, that's more people than live in the entire state of Delaware. It's like if every single person from your small town decided to spontaneously combust into Astros jerseys and converge on one place. Can you imagine the traffic? The bathroom lines? The sheer chaos of it all?
Tip: Rest your eyes, then continue.
But hey, chaos is kind of what sports are all about, right? And this was a celebration for the ages. So, while we might never know the exact number, one thing's for sure: the Houston Astros parade was a historic event that will be talked about for years to come.
QuickTip: Repetition signals what matters most.
How to... Astros Parade Edition
- How to survive an Astros parade: Wear comfortable shoes, bring plenty of water, and hold onto your friends (or at least their jerseys).
- How to estimate a crowd size: It's actually pretty complicated, involving things like aerial photography and crowd density analysis. But for casual estimates, just look at the pictures and say, "a lot."
- How to celebrate a World Series win: Well, if you're in Houston, apparently you throw a parade that shuts down the city. If you're not, you probably just watch the replay and cry a little.
- How to deal with parade hangover: Plenty of rest, hydration, and maybe a few tacos.
- How to ensure your team wins the World Series: Unfortunately, there's no guaranteed formula. But hiring a really good shortstop seems like a solid start.
