Friday night at Dodger Stadium is a night no one who went to the game will forget. Diehard Los Angeles Dodgers fan Vanessa Bryant had a celebratory moment after the historic NLCS victory against the Milwaukee Brewers that sent the team back to the World Series with Freddie Freeman’s wife and one of her good friends, Chelsea Freeman.

The 43-year-old widow of Kobe Bryant has been at games this past year like Clayton Kershaw’s 3000th strikeout game where Natalia Bryant, 22, stared on with extreme intensity, and another where they took a sweet family photo with Bianka, 8, and Capri, 6.

But this one tops them all.

Vanessa has crushed before at a game with Chelsea, and did it again with her on the night Shohei Ohtani belted three home runs and pitched six scoreless innings and had 10 strikeouts in arguably the greatest playoff game ever. The two both rocked the biggest victory smiles on their faces in the selfie below.
