Having purchased a part of the franchise for $2 billion in 2012, Johnson has been a loud and proud supporter of the team. He has shown active involvement and fans are thankful for any help he has lent in bringing the team another championship title. “Thank you for being great owners and making a commitment to field championship contending teams!”

Considering the many titles Johnson has now acquired as not just a player, one seemed to consider Johnson having some magic in his hands. “Everything this guy touches turns to gold. As a Yankee fan congratulations. A team that completed a difficult task. Be favored to win the WS prior to the season and fulfilling that projection is cool.” Well, Dodgers are already favored to win the 2025 World Series as well.

Being an owner, Johnson has secured rings with three different sports teams. After LAFC, LA Sparks, and LA Lakers, a second win with the LA Dodgers had a fan thankful for all that the NBA icon has given to the LA’s sports scene. “From Showtime to Sho Time, thank you for all that you have given to Los Angeles!” one wrote.

“Thank you Boss !” said another as the Dodgers picked their eighth World Series title, second with Johnson as the part-owner. This was the first time though that Johnson got to lift the trophy after covid-19 limited the celebrations in 2020. The team could not even savor a parade back then, making November 1st’s celebration the first since 1988. So it was a huge win for the LA.

Mayor Karen Bass also took to X formerly known as Twitter to congratulate the Dodgers. “Tonight, we showed the world that Los Angeles is made of CHAMPIONS. Congratulations to the @Dodgers on tonight’s win. Looking forward to seeing you back in LA!” Famed music icon Ice Cube wrote, “Mic Drop!!! Dodgers beat the Yanks!!!! It Was A Good Day!!!”

LA Kings were also seen celebrating the Dodgers’ win at the Crypto. Com arena. As the Las Vegas sphere turned all bright to celebrate the win, the UCLA Football team too joined in. The celebration has just begun for the LA fans.
