The stars will be shining on the diamond and in the stands during the 2024 World Series. The highly anticipated series will begin in Hollywood on Friday when the Los Angeles Dodgers host the New York Yankees for Game 1. While the series will feature MLB All-Stars like Shohei Ohtani, Aaron Judge, Mookie Betts and Juan Soto, there will be just as much star-power in the bleachers. Between actors, former athletes and rappers, both fan bases are stacked with entertainment icons. Which team has more famous fans? Let’s break it down.
