No, this wasn't like Queen's Day. The guys you see on the bus just won an amateure footballchampionsship. In Volendam it's a tradation, that when a team wins a championsship, they make a "ride of honour" through Volendam. If FC Volendam, the professional footballclub in town, becomes champion, they will celibrate it like this way. Then the players are standing on a boat, which is pulled by a tractor. This boat is called the "Heen en Weer" (Back and Forth).
