LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) - In possibly the biggest celebration in the city's history, tens of thousands of fans lined downtown streets Sunday to honor the national basketball champion Kansas Jayhawks.
Fans from as far away as Colorado and Minnesota, some in trees and on rooftops, came to get a glimpse of coach Bill Self, Mario Chalmers and the rest of the team that beat Memphis 75-68 to win the NCAA championship.
Fans lined the sidewalks as many as 10 deep to watch as players, coaches and team personnel paraded by in shiny red and black Mustang and Corvette convertibles.
