The U.S. women’s national soccer team is honored in New York City with a ticker tape parade.
NEW YORK (AP) — A blizzard of confetti and large crowds are expected at Wednesday’s ticker tape parade to celebrate the U.S. women’s national soccer team in New York City.
The festivities in honor of the Women’s World Cup champs will begin at 9:30 a.m. in a section of lower Manhattan nicknamed the Canyon of Heroes. The stretch of Broadway from the Battery to City Hall has long hosted parades for world leaders, veterans and hometown sports stars.
The events are named for the long strands of ticker tape that used to be showered down from nearby office buildings. The tape has since been replaced with paper confetti.
After the parade, Democratic Mayor Bill de Blasio will honor the team with symbolic keys to the city. All tickets for the City Hall ceremony have been issued.

I WAS IN THIS I WALKED JULIE ERTZ OUT ABSJBSKJBASFJBKSB
Y…W… C… A!!!
Right, gorams csu, tell that to Megan Rapinoe. "Rapinoe has been the center of attention throughout the tournament…She also made headlines for saying she would refuse to go to the White House if invited." She is & will be anything but "unnoticed." https://www.democracynow.org/2019/7/8/seg_1
ragnar ulrichson , of course you don't notice Rapinoe's mega-stardom because your head is too far up your ass.
ragnar ulrichson , trump was never elected, so thanks for proving me right that there'll be no trans flood. trump lost the actual vote & gop stole the "electoral college." https://www.truthdig.com/articles/investigative-reporter-greg-palast-gop-stole-2016-election-using-voter-suppression-purging-ploys/
ragnar ulrichson , thanks for proving that you are the reason for incest laws and lead paint warnings as only the mentally ill or capitalist indoctrinated sycophants like you could confuse the risk undertaken by activists like Kap or Rapinoe vs. "following orders" to kill and/or die for "u.s." corporate global dictatorship.
When winning 13-0 is NOT CLASSLESS enough…CELEBRATE with an F-Bomb.
Teresa Huggins , too bad you're too ignorant & hate-filled to understand what justice is. Kap and Rapinoe are more courageous by standing up to the white supremacist, misogynist, and homophobic "u.s." regime than anyone "following orders" to kill and/or die for "u.s." corporate global dictatorship. No wonder you're such a hater.
WNT great, haters Shutup, thank you
I'm glad the women won it for America this time???
White House is in NYC ?
The Lady is a Trump
I Love USA Women’s Soccer you are play goodddddd ?????❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️??? I wait 4year you are Winning again yes!!!!
Cursing at the end end was classless
All aboard!!! Get on that trump train because we all love you. God bless america. And thanks to our flag.
Awesome
I cannot support this soccer team when they have made it anti-Trump. They won't visit President Trump because of their crazy liberal beliefs and fake rage . They are then saying 'screw you' to half this nation. They too are splitting this country in half. Spreading more hate. Keep politics out of sports.
So how much did this shenanigans cost the city? But, it’s not ok to have a 4th of July celebration right?
this womens wc will prob be the last wc where the teams r made up of actual females……whats happening in athletics is coming 2 soccer….next usa womens team capt will prob be sporting a beard……
Congratulations one nation one team
#equalpay
I'm so tired of these negative comments and politics. Can we just enjoy this moment wherein WOMEN won the game for the USA.
Women's sport will never get equal pay, as the average boy's high school team can beat them in most sports, that's reality. The unpleasant purple haired player is not doing the cause any favours either.
Too bad they couldn't find a garbage truck big enough to carry them all.
DeBlasio figured out how to get people to cheer for him!!! LOL!!!
USA USA USA USA USA!!!!! WIN WIN WIN !!!!! CONGRATS!!!! This feels SOOOOOOO GOOOOD!!!!
not for nothing, but these women deserve to be paid more than the men OR at least the same. they are more popular and successful than the US men soccer team. WHY are the MEN getting paid more? WHY!?
sucker team champions they r rhe best sucking everything ?
thank god this will be all over this week
AFTER LEARNING THAT THE US SOCCER TEAM WILL VISIT CONGRESS AND NOT THE WHITE HOUSE, IN RETROSPECT I WISH THEY HAVE LOST THE LAST GAME! NO MORE POLITICAL BS IN SPORT!
Like Megan Rapinoe said: New York City, you're the (plug your ears, if you're under age 14) MOTHERFUCKING best!
Congrats! Great to see the enthusiasm.
But the "Scotsmen" killed me ….
Now I know why they earn less than the Men's team.
What Rapinoe is saying in all her messages that if you’re not gay women you won’t win the World Cup, and you need gay women to win the World Cup
That it’s an insult to normal women who play in the World Cup and all the women in the United States of America and the whole world in general
I hope you’re doing something about her message for our mother sister and daughter and wife’s!!!!!

Face it guys….these Women are a class act!
Congrats that you But guess what men's soccer still generates more money. The 70 cents to a dollar is a myth.
You guys actually get paid more percentage wise from the moment generated then the men's soccer team so equal pay means you make less money… I'm tired of this myth
CONGRATULATIONS ANTIFA WOMEN'S WORLD CUP CHAMPS
The best part is tomorrow you can walk down down any street in America unnoticed.
We need to do something about with these people that dishonor our flag and flag and our nation
I understand the gay community don’t care about our country anymore because they are discriminated because of her gender ( male or female)! I see a lot women and male in this world and to help our country to grow healthy, we need to create a new gender and it’s gay gender (male or female)
Gay women who act like men are more strong than a normal women and they should not be mixed in a competition for the women World Cup because it’s a women World Cup!!!!!!!
It should be a soccer confederation for gay women only and competing in the World Cup , because right now we Se Rapinoe protesting against our nation and telling the whole world that our nation is racist and leftist socialist and don’t care for humanity and l am very disappointed that people in our nation don’t see that
Let Rapinoe create her own team of gays players and win the World Cup like normal men and women of this great nation
Whatever or whoever that purple hair thing is makes me sick to my stock makes me wanna vomit.isnl that thing an animal a mutation a human wtf is that thing?

Them good ole boys from the backwoods don't like this at all.
They don't want equality, they want MONEY! These are not athletes, these are selfish gold-diggers.
Maybe gold-digging should be made an Olympic sport. Oh look, it already is 🙂
If it was "equality" that female athletes wanted, they would have gone & played for Cuba, North Korea or China for equal treatment to men.
Thank you new york city ??
And as usual the america hating gutter trash, Meghan Rapinoe disrespects our Anthem. She is why many have stopped watching women's soccer.
The only thing I have a problem with you guys littering all over in a non enclosed area throwing confetti in stadium is a different story
Outside if you need confetti effect then use dollar bills
no one cares about women's soccer no one was watching just look at the ratings
If the US men ever won the World Cup the country would come to a grinding halt…Well done the ladies, best team, well deserved.
this looks lame
