HAVE TROPHY, WILL TRAVEL
The Stanley Cup – a 34.5-pound trophy that gets around. This silver chalice gets its own seat on airplanes, travels worldwide and has even been on a spaceship. Its adventures are chronicled on its Twitter account, offering fans a glimpse into its "spring break-like" escapades.
You'd think because NHL (National Hockey League) players work so hard to earn the right to spend a day with the Stanley Cup, they'd treat it with respect. Only sometimes. The trophy has been set on fire, then peed on to put out said fire, left on the side of the road and in a garden after a photo shoot.
For more on the Instagram-worthy, jealousy-evoking life of the iconic trophy, check out this week's podcast, "The Adventures Of The Stanley Cup." LISTEN UP
