I learned first hand while in San Antonio last week how passionate Kansas fans really are (seriously, Rock Chalk Jayhawk is still stuck in my head), but man, that is some turnout for the championship parade yesterday. An estimated 100,000 fans showed up in Lawrence yesterday to congratulate the Jayhawks on their championship. In all honestly, I was unaware that 100,000 people even lived in the state of Kansas until this story. Here are a few more pictures of the whole event from the Lawrence Daily World.
No word yet if they counted football coach Mangino as "1" or "1000" when they made the estimate of people.

Is that Extra P in the corner?
If you are talking about the large black man in the middle....then yes
Naw, I'm the guy in the low middle who looks like the Unabomber.
I'm there somewhere, stuck behind like 20 rows of people.
In the picture, Mangino counted as 99,928 people.
What I want to know is, was Guillermo by your side?
May April 7, 2008 go down as one of the finest days this earth hath ever known.
