In 1989 I got to touch the cup, hold it above my head and get a picture. I was 14, wearing an LA Kings jersey (new style after Gretzky was moved there) and neon Sorel boots. Its been all down hill in my life since. I can't stress enough for people not to make the same mistakes I did.

Neon boots, people. Kings jersey. Immortalized on film. Learn from me.

Though I also held the cup the same year as the Flames. Win some, lose some.

Back story: The cup was on tour and stopped here in Saskatoon. Overnight it was under the supervision of our police force. My Dad was a high ranking official and several of us kids got to see it in person.
