Even though I'm not a huge hockey fan it's hard not to get swept up in Hawks-mania. I was at a pub in Lakeview to watch the Hawks win the Stanley Cup. We were sprayed with victory champagne, received hugs from strangers, and ran amuck in the crowds. Two days later, I attended the parade to celebrate the win which went right past my school. Apparently 2 million people filled downtown to see the team and the cup. It was amazing and here are some photos:


If you zoom in on this picture you will see the Stanley Cup. I was running out of my school just as it drove by.

A guy who worked at my school climbed up a three story fire escape to take this picture:

This guy was awesome:
