Wow. How to break this down. Reader's digesting the experience. I know this is not much for RC boating.... but, as a canuck... this is a big deal to us. So I share the experience with other canucks and interested hockey fans out there... awwww heck with everyone! So, for weeks we have heard of the Cup coming. Today was the day. We exited the vehicle. Bruins jersey on. Chris in Toronto. I stood in line with a great quebequois Montreal fan. There were more Bruins and Montreal fans than anything. Danny Grant and Willie O'Ree (Montreal 68 cup winner and Willie was the first black man to play pro hockey who started with the Boston Bruins respectively) Both from the area and were there. Was there when the cup arrived and the car was left unattended.... oh yes I thought about it. Then Willie showed up. William got to talk to him. We waited in line ... and I bounced in and out of the line four times. Three times for picks.... once with the Cup`s keeper to see the Boston Bruins was actually spelt BQSTQN BRUINS on the cup, it was awesome. Met Danny Grant and Willie myself, and of course with all the energy that I give off, I was choosen by the St. Thomas University Reporters to give an interview on Camera. It was great.... wow.... Here some pics for those who want to see.... A Youtube video of the experience is coming soon!!!
Oh How I love thee.... let me count the ways.... Yzerman, Lemieux, Orr, Howe, Gilmour, Roy, Richard, Esposito, Gretzky, .... MESSIER!!! Love it!!! As you can tell.
Will looks very much at peace here. Gosh... what a feeling. I still have the smell of its polish on my hands. Look at that. This is the real mccoy to. The one they hand out every year.
Not bad William. Plant one one the old Girl. I did too.... three times. I was a wreck it was great! The Cup has been awarded for over a hundred years now. This one has been to the top of the rockies and Everest. Has been in swimming pools and deepsea diving... too many parades to remember and the beverage of choice.... champagne!!! Every year all the champions individually get to have the Grail for 24 hours and do what they wish with it... within reason of course.... wow.
Here is the two of us with Danny Grant. He has his name on the cup with Canadians in 1968. He is a Fredericton Native and happy to have his pic taken with a couple of fans.
This was awesome... *smack* I can still taste the silver polish on my lips.... what a day. *sighs*..... that was great. Thanks for letting me share. Youtube to come!
What are those disgusting jerseys you are wearing?[] You should get the jersey of a real team.[][][8D] Go Habs Go
Boomer that is the oldest and hardest trophy in pro sports, every winners name in engraved on it that is something pro football, baseball or bascketball do not do. There is over 100 years of history in that Cup it is the Holy Grail..... Being part Canadian you must get in touch with it, it is a spiritual experence.
Im Canadian, but i dont like hockey. Sorry guys, much rather see something else. Lombardi Trophy or World Champion of Baseball trophy
Gregory is going to be jealous... Craig your gonna have to send him a pic of you and one of you and Will. He would absolutely love it.. I know he would. Submitted by Joy by the way
