It was 67 to 62 in Sunday's final nail bider of a game.

So this morning New York City is celebrating the liberty the way New York does with a

ticker tape parade up the Canyon of Heroes in Lower Manhattan.

It's the Liberty's first ever championship in their 30 years of existence. the second ticker tape parade in a row for a sports team that's for a women's sports team by the way.
