The MBC entourage then set off for Halle an der Saale, where they descended upon a bustling nightclub to continue their momentous celebration of their most significant achievement since their Europe Cup triumph 21 years prior. "Tonight is going to be wild," proclaimed Akeem Vargas on MDR, the regional public broadcaster.
"It’s unbelievable. The entire basketball community in the former East German states can be proud of this," exclaimed MBC director Martin Geissler. "In 2004, MBC was on the brink of collapse, but we rebuilt the club together."
After a raucous night of revelry, another highlight awaited the team on Monday. At 4 p.m., the Pokalsieger were officially received by Weißenfels’ Lord Mayor, Martin Papke (CDU). Subsequently, the team took to the balcony of the town hall to bask in the adulation of their devoted fans.
