My brother is a huge Wings fan. He paid $1000 for a seat on the glass to game one. He went to Downtown Detroit on Friday for the Stanley Cup Championship Parade. After the parade he went to Chris Chellios' restaurant Chelli's Chili Bar. He was there for about 30 minutes when Chellios comes walking in carrying the Cup with the rest of the team. They were having a private party in the VIP area there. A little while later my brother is walking by the VIP area and literally bumps into Chellios who is carrying the cup. He asks if he can get his picture with Chelli and the cup and Chelli says yes. My cousin goes to take the picture and his camera completely locks up. While he is screwing with it Chelli says he has to go. 10 minutes later Chris Osgood in standing on the bar filling the cup with beer and letting people drink out of it. My cousin is front and center and my brother gets a perfect picture of him drinking from the cup.

Mis-spelling the name of the main character and famous athlete in your post: even more priceless.

I may have spelled that one wrong, but at least I spelled Stanley Cup and parade correctly.

I have heard nothing but good things about Chelios off the ice and, as a Blackhawks fan, I am happy for him.

That's hilarious! so where is the picture of your cousin?

I'll have my brother e-mail it to me. I guess Ozzie stayed up there for about an hour pouring for everyone.

I hope your brother's not a hockey player. General superstition is not to touch the cup until you've earned the right to do so.

Anyway, that's really, really cool, and being a Michigander and a die hard Wing's fan myself, I couldn't be more jealous.

I don't think he has to worry. He will be 34 this Summer, smokes and has a gut. Not likely to be suiting up anytime soon.

McCarty was a personal training client at the club I run. He brought the cup into the club in Summer of 1998. I started working here in December of 1998. He and Slava Koslov trained here until about 2000. Unfortunately I never got a chance to get up close with it.
