The last time one of our major league sports teams won a championship was in 2016 for the Broncos. Although it is not yet officially mapped out, a place for parade and celebration could look alike.

In 2016, the parade followed the same route, beginning near Union Station at 17th Street and Wynkoop Street, continued along 17th to Broadway, down Broadway to the 13th Avenue and down 13th to the City and County Building for a huge rally.
