Dodgers' Victory Flight: A Unique Homecoming

The Los Angeles Dodgers, fresh off their World Series win against the New York Yankees, returned home in style. They boarded a plane owned by the New England Patriots, raising eyebrows about a potential taunt towards their East Coast rivals. The Dodgers clinched their eighth championship with a thrilling 7-6 victory in Game 5. As they landed in LA, a player emerged from the Patriots' jet, proudly displaying the World Series trophy. Patriots owner Robert Kraft acquired these Boeing 767s in 2017, often using them for VIP transportation and emergency aid, like during the COVID-19 pandemic. This isn't the first time a Boston team has rubbed salt in New York's wounds. The Red Sox famously beat the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS en route to their World Series win, ending an 86-year drought. Could this plane loan be a subtle jab from Boston? After all, the Patriots have their own score to settle with the New York Giants, who defeated them in two Super Bowls. The Dodgers plan to celebrate their championship with a parade and stadium event, but the buzz around their unique homecoming continues.
