  1. This is in front of the Belgrade City Hall, there is a park there but it looks like there is enough people that it’s oveflowing onto the street behind it. Novak Djokovic is there as well. I wanna say 10-15K people.

  2. Dotdueller

    Man I wish he came out on a chariot pulled by his two favorite horses with trumpets being played around him.

  3. The announcer is more annoying than Kendrick Perkins and Keyshawn Johnson combined.

    In what kind of sport it could be expected this kind of crowd welcoming in North America? Probably Canada with hockey Olympic gold??

  5. Getting this much praise and adoration would absolutely ruin me as a human being lol

  6. Whatever801

    Serbia is kinda lit. Don’t blame him for wanting to get home ASAP

  7. ThatInception

    This view/crowd would give anyone goosebumps

    Insane

  8. In Serbia, this became a tradition almost thirty years ago, after the basketball team won the European championship in 1995. Whenever a sports team wins a European or a World cup medal they get to go on the balcony and have their hour of celebration with the people. It also expanded to every medal winner in the Olympics and to some other big sport success stories like when Novak Djoković won his first Wimbledon and simultaneously became world number 1 in 2011.

    So far, the balcony was graced by both men and women basketball teams, men and women volleyball teams, men waterpolo team, men handball team and many other Olympians that won their medals in athletics, shooting, swimming, martial arts etc.

  9. Lmao Jokic getting more love from his home crowd than Djokovic here is fucking hilarious and I’m here for it.

    Third for Serbia and Djokovic finally getting his Olympic gold. Great Olympics for them

    Hopefully we can see Jokic at Eurobasket2025 being held at Latvia,Finland,Poland and Cyprus. Ever since 2002 Serbia never won the last match of the late stages of tournaments if they reach it, too many silvers and few 4th places. With bronze at this Olympics we broke that barrier finally.

  12. If this is the turnout for a Bronze medal, what’s the crowd look like for Novak Djokovic?

  13. First time I think I ever seen a real smile on his face. He king there.

    Serbia is what I hope my parents country the philippines be with sports. They celebrate all sports with passion and love. In the Philippines it’s just focus on basketball and beauty pageants lol.

    There isn’t rivalry or people downplaying a sport when they achieve something.

    Even in America there is rivalry with basketball or NFL fans. If soccer (football) gets success like the WC I feel Anerica won’t have the same passion other countries do.

    I fele Serbia can be a country that can field top teams in baskatball and football even with their population size.

    Football has a decent history though recently it hasn’t been the best, but you still have guys like Mitrovic and savic who are quality players and a roster who play at respectable clubs around Europe.

    I hope partisans in euroleague, Serbia wins at least one Eurobasket, WC, or Olympic gold with Jokić, and football team makes a run in the euros or World Cup.

    I watched the game against Slovenia when Jović tied at the end and it was crazy limbs when he scored.

    That’s why I laugh at KD being insecure and attacking fans for loving Jokić and Serbia.

    They play with their country in their sleeve and passion someone like KD and most American athletes in sports they always will have an advtange in won’t ever get.

    KD has this dream but it ends with Bob Myers and a nightmare

    Not a bad two weeks for Serbia, with Novak finally getting gold and the basketball team winning bronze.

  19. dead-serious
