Bayern Munich's Bizarre Beer Shower for Bundesliga Victory: It's "Prost" Time Again!
Upcoming Bayern celebration to feature beer showers instead of champagne. - A revised alcoholic choice for a celebration, swapping out champagne showers with beer.
Title debutant and football sensation Harry Kane couldn't contain his excitement about his first wild championship bash at an upscale restaurant. Now, it's renowned striker star Thomas Müller's turn to rejoice, as he prepares to celebrate the championship at Bayern's home stadium with a lot of heartfelt moments. In the last home game before his final bow, Müller, the Bayern legend, will receive the trophy they have snatched back.
The emotional deluge of champagne and confetti will undoubtedly be the high point of a Thomas Müller farewell day filled with goosebumpsworthy moments at FC Bayern.
Swapping Champagne for Beer Showers
It appears Kane, who experienced the first party on Sunday night, wasn't kidding when he called it a wild night and a memorable celebration with the players and staff. In an Instagram video, Kane was still overcome by the magic, stating, "What a night! What a celebration with the players and the staff. I reckon everyone feels it a bit today."
The champions' closet was at full swing, playing party tunes, popping champagne, and puffing championship cigars post the sofa title, a perfect follow-up to Leverkusen's 2:2 draw in Freiburg. With the English national team captain Kane arm in arm with DFB captain Joshua Kimmich and mate Eric Dier, they belted out hits such as "Sweet Caroline" and "Take Me Home, Country Roads." Kimmich even posed for snaps that Kane shared online, apparently soaking wet and holding a giant champagne bottle.
Showing Off the Trophy on Home Turf
Kane's enthusiasm was palpable the next day; "I can't wait to enjoy the next few weeks and celebrate with the fans in the stadium on Saturday." Before that, he can gather some tips from the record 13-time champion Müller. Then, instead of the champagne sprayings, there will be legendary beer showers, just like in the upscale restaurant.
The German Football League announced on Monday morning that the 11-kilogram trophy will be presented in the stadium after the game against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday. "We are the champions again - and the trophy is back home next Saturday," said CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen.
"We now have a bit of time to enjoy that we have won the Bundesliga," said coach Vincent Kompany, reveling in the "incredible feeling" after FC Bayern's 34th German championship. The club president, Herbert Hainer, summed it up: "I am firmly convinced that if you win the German championship, you had a good season."
Preparations for an Emotional Farewell
The coming Saturday will be nothing short of special for Thomas Müller. It will be the last time he takes to the field for a home game after 25 years. On this legendary day, they will commemorate the presentation of the championship trophy and also bid a fond farewell to the man regarded as a "Bavarian institution," said Dreesen. "It will be an emotional farewell."
The closing chapter of Müller's glorious career will be the lucrative XXL Club World Cup from June 14 to July 13 in the USA, where Munich is among the title contenders. "There is indeed still one title to be distributed in this year, in this season," said Dreesen.
By then, it will probably be clear whether Müller will hang up his boots after the Bayern era - or whether he will dare another adventure abroad, like in the US league.
Double the Fun - Champion Party on Town Hall Balcony
"Next Saturday, we're looking forward to celebrating together with the fans at the stadium and later on the town hall balcony," said sporting director Max Eberl, who, like Kane, is a league champion debutant. With a sea of red and white flags and thousands of Bayern fans, the German champions of FC Bayern will present themselves with their trophies on the town hall balcony at Marienplatz on May 18th.
A Day of Remembrance at FC Bayern
Besides memories of the first championship celebration, Monday at FC Bayern was primarily a day of remembrance. FC Bayern bosses paid tribute to football legend Franz Beckenbauer at the inauguration of the Franz Beckenbauer Platz in front of the Allianz Arena. Beckenbauer, the "Kaiser" of football, who passed away in 2024, is honored once again with the Franz Beckenbauer Platz.
Beer Showers and Marienplatz victories are trademark highlights at Bayern Munich's Bundesliga celebrations, offering a lively and unforgettable experience for their fans.
