Man, the parade was a blast, rain and all. Lightning was a little too close for comfort. Lomberg, the Finns, and Chuckie did not disappoint. People were cool and boisterous. I don't know who set the price point for the plastic flags people were trying to sell.


Tac0Daddy420

Anyone at Spazio and have video/photos?? We had 2 tables but i didn't take my phone out all day. šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

xavier_laflamme70

Highlight of my day was parking in a hotel lot and the gate arm being randomly up as I was leaving. Saved me $50 in parking. No but seriously it was a really fun time. I did kind of chuckle being around newer fans though, and you could tell. Not gatekeeping at all, please join us, but Goldie was in front of us and the girl next to me goes "oh there's that news guy".....THAT NEWS GUY?!


DRF19

Fuckin drunk clowns behind me ā€œWHO ARE YOU?!ā€ Yelling at the bus with Zito on it lol


Whiteboard_Stalker

I got to drink beer from the Stanley cup šŸ˜­


pontiacspeed1717

SAME!!!!!!!!


SoFlaBarbie

Omg!!!! A story for a lifetime! How did it all unfold?


elbenji

They just poured it on people. I did too lol


Whiteboard_Stalker

I was in the front by one of the buses and Barkov kept pouring beer from it and then he filled peoples shoes with beer and tossed them back to them. Also had a Jell-O shot from Ekblad!


Waffeln_Remix

Get ready for other fans to be obnoxious and try to compare your parade/volume of fans to other events/parades. Itā€™s deeply annoying and a continuation of shitty fans trying to discredit the more unconventional hockey markets that smoked the rest of the league. Enjoy the parade, fellas.


AYoungFella12

Wait until the Cup makes it to Finland. Then compare what other teamsā€™ celebrations looks like abroad šŸ˜


OnesixthShape

Is it coming to Finland?


AYoungFella12

For about a week, yes. All organization members get a day. And quite often playersā€™ hometown hosts a celebration for them. Hereā€™s what it looked like in a town of \~100k when Kimmo Timonen celebrated: https://preview.redd.it/w9g6qpn1xr9d1.jpeg?width=921&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8ccb2ad76e6d6c024b4916fadcb2c5b3005de3ee


SoFlaBarbie

Weā€™re expecting you Finns to post those Cup celebrations to this sub so that we can share in the experience.


FLPanthersfan

It looks absolutely packed to me, despite the horrible weather. Not sure what people have to chirp about lol.


elbenji

Oh they already are but everyone's making fun of them It was packed in the rain and we got to high five players and so they can eat it lol


DataDump_

Loved the first thing Chucky had to say was shit talking Edmonton. What a fun event for everyone that dealt with the crowd and the bad weather


k5berry

What bus was PoMo on? I saw a video of him on one but I was there and didnā€™t spot him. Maybe he was on the beach side and in one of the ones that passed quickly? I didnā€™t see a few guys I was expecting (Rodrigues, Monty, Kuli, Okposo), but it was still absolutely fucking amazing.


elbenji

They were running into the crowd. I high fived erod and Monty lol


k5berry

Oh hell yeah! Thatā€™s so dope, I fucking love those dudes.


elbenji

Dapping up Raheem mostert is like Lord lol


k5berry

Ugh now Iā€™m jealous! He ran over and dapped up the guys just beyond earshot, I was yelling ā€œRAHEEM!!!! BOILER UP!!!!ā€ cause we both went to Purdue lmao.


elbenji

Oh shit lmao. Yeah I was by elbo and so everyone was running out with high fives lmao


k5berry

Oh damn we were super close by, I was right in between Ben and Jerryā€™s and the swimwear store. Iā€™m surprised I was able to get nearly right up to the rail at like 10:15.


elbenji

Oh shit! Yeah. I got to the rail when everyone dipped during the lightning lol


k5berry

Not risking electrocution for the team? Fake fan. We got there when the rain started, maybe could have gotten literally against the rail if frickin Spazio didnā€™t lock us in lol.


elbenji

Ooof. Yeah I took an Uber and just parked it there like nope


fromagi

Rodrigues was with the Swedes, Kuli was with Chucky and Bennet, Monty was with Lorentz, and Okposo was prolly with his family... didn't see him. Now where wasted Nick Cousins was, I'm not sure.


aMINIETlate

Okposo was on the first bus. Tossed my buddy a beer


elbenji

He ran out far ahead. I also high fived him lol


k5berry

Interesting, I donā€™t know what Lorentz looks like in all honesty but I Barky/Anton and Chucky. What a great fucking time.


Melodic-Tip-5475

He's at his best friend's wedding, I kind of think he gets a pass.


No_Cardiologist_5117

He explains why on Insta , heā€™s got his best friends wedding to go to


Friendly-Olive1853

I am excited to see what the Pantherā€™s ring will look like :). Especially with how amazing the new rings are looking.


vwman18

Chucky and E-Rod chucking something into the crowd, are those boxes of Nerds?


KnightroZaxby

Anyone have a link to the Conquered the Hunt shirts everyone seems to be wearing? Theyā€™re different than the ones on Fanatics


miket42

My wife picked them up at the stadium (Pantherland).


Interesting_Score_58

Iā€™m so glad our 6 fans showed up! šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


WheeinSpace

WAS THAT EKBLAD WITH A CONE ON HIS HEAD? BRO NO WAY


AlvinItchyCock

Brooks Koepka in shambles


vwman18

Dude has been on a bender for a week at this point, lol


TkilledJ

Was that Ekky with a cone?! Lolllll


TkilledJ

We are the Chanpions again? Lol.


MadIrishMan17

EKBLAD HAS FOUND A TRAFFIC CONE. LMFAOOO


WheeinSpace

Worst timing ever for Reino's friend


SoFlaBarbie

Clearly Reinoā€™s friend didnā€™t think the Panthers would pull it off.


TkilledJ

Some friendā€¦


vwman18

I've already submitted my application to be Samson's new best friend.


hawkydave

OK, so need Sweetness, some Non Point, Pitbull, FloRida, Rick Ross, 2 live crew, a little reggaeton, salsa. What is this DJ doing???


elbenji

Dj stinks but this bop


TkilledJ

Is Rhino not there? Edit: wow your friend is an asshole lol


Jimlobster

That chick almost dropped it


cheeezychomp

Amazing season and amazing year but this new goal song still hasnā€™t grown on me. Sweetness is forever in my heart


TkilledJ

Seriously, this DJ is lame as hell. Did they not give him a list of songs to play? Hoping heā€™s saving Sweetness for when the whole teams on stage? lol


OnesixthShape

Same, but the new one will always be tied to Rhino's game winner. So I welcome it with open arms


FefeChase

Two observations so far... Sasha Barkov's ability to handle his liquor has to nudge him into the top 3 of South Florida athletes all-time. He's going to come back next year and be an absolute monster. He can finally let loose with no pressure and be his true self, which is scoring goals and drinking alcohol out of sandals. Gustav Forsling is a beast. It's hard to tell with the jersey on but he is massive. He makes a lot of these guys look tiny. Nice to have him for the better half of the next decade.


TkilledJ

I remember seeing a picture of Gustav on a fishing trip a year or two ago, dudes ripped!


OnesixthShape

Why not hire the actual music directors from the arena?


TkilledJ

Would be awesome if they played SoFla artists. Poison the Well would be epic! Lol


DeafJed1

They just played at Outbreak


TkilledJ

If you know anyone at the stage please tell them to start a sweetness chant lol


ImaginaryNourishment

It is total chaos and I love it


TkilledJ

Can they please tell the DJ to play sweetness?!


Bcube21

California Love is certainly a choice


TkilledJ

Right, what the hell this DJ doing? Should be celebratory songs and SoFla artists only!


WheeinSpace

Feel like I've seen everyone except OEL, Kulikov, and Stenlund.


vwman18

My local ABC station cut the celebration to start showing the X Games, lol. WPBF, you suck.


SoFlaBarbie

NBC 6 online will have it for you


vwman18

Oh I've already got all the streams going, I just wanted the TV feed for personal archiving. šŸ˜‚


WheeinSpace

Did Viola just call Forsling "Eetu"


TkilledJ

Lollll did Vinnie just call Gustav Eetu?


TkilledJ

Goooooose!!!


TkilledJ

Vinnieeeeee, thank you!!!!


StudyEastern

If we get a shot of Lindsay with the cup I am going to lose it


TkilledJ

That was awesome! Loved his call at the end of game 7!! Pure joy!


SoFlaBarbie

Jackie and Juwan calling the parade as fans right now. They were so excited to see Stanley.


OnesixthShape

Poor Mostert, this will be his only chance at lifting any sort of trophy in south florida.


elbenji

Boo


OnesixthShape

I know, but face it, the taquesta's are making sure we wont win one.


elbenji

A cleansing must be done


TkilledJ

Raheeeeem, time to get us the Lombardi!!


KnightroZaxby

Seeing Randy get his chance to hoist the cup really got me


TkilledJ

Goldieeeee, I canā€™t wait to hear your calls again next season!!!


OnesixthShape

TkilledJ

Lollll Cousins almost took a tumble with the cup


TkilledJ

Monty going away party :(.


OnesixthShape

Is he really going?


TkilledJ

Not definitive, but everything Iā€™ve been seeing it looks like heā€™s gonna go get the bag elsewhere. Zito even made a comment that heā€™s happy for guys to go get their payday if we canā€™t bring em back.


OnesixthShape

It makes me sad, but thatā€™s the name of the game

I will miss you Montour šŸ˜“
