I think it is more a player thing not touching the cup than for fans.
I know for me the 3 times I have been around the cup. Once wearing a Orr jersey at the Orr Museum they had the cup there for the weekend. I did the famous Bobby Orr resting his arms on the cup pose. The second our family all had our hands on the bowl.
3rd time just standing beside it.
I wouldn't hoist over my head though. Just wouldn't feel worthy of that one thing.
I think it is far different if you were with personal friend that won it like BC Chris and he said go ahead man pick it up etc. That's totally different you are truly celebrating the cup amongst friends. Nothing wrong with his photos. Glad he shared them here.
